Fault diagnosis of the train communication network based on weighted support vector machine

Abstract

Multifunction vehicle bus (MVB) is the most widely used train communication network which transmits controlling and supervising data. The faults of MVB will heavily affect the train's safe and stable operation. Due to the harsh operating environment and distributed structure, the MVB fault diagnosis has always been a difficult issue in the maintenance of the train. Many MVB faults will distort the physical waveforms and cause serious packet loss. Thus, we have extracted waveform features to characterize different MVB faults and turned the fault diagnosis into a pattern recognition problem. Then a classifier based on weighted support vector machine (WSVM) has been trained to diagnose and locate network faults. Considering that samples locating in different positions of the feature space have different influences on the support vector machine (SVM) hyperplane, we have proposed a multi‐hop edge approaching method to assign sample weights in WSVM. To identify the position of the tested sample, the hops from its location to the classification margin have been counted. The less the hop‐count, the closer to the classification margin and the larger the sample weight. Compared with SVM and other WSVM methods, the proposed method has better performance on the artificial synthetic datasets, the MVB dataset, and the benchmark datasets. © 2020 Institute of Electrical Engineers of Japan.

A Fast Small-Sample Modeling Method for Precision Inertial Systems Fault Prediction and Quantitative Anomaly Measurement

“…In the figure, there are five sample points x 1 ∼x 5 . Based on the construction principle of supersphere, we can know that x 1 ∼x 3 are non-support-vectors, x 4 Step 2: Considering Definition 3, the square of distance from the sample x to m in the high-dimensional space is…”

“…As the emerging growth of demand for systems' health monitoring and reliability estimation, the fault diagnosis and prediction problems have become a research focus at present [1][2][3][4]. To realize the full-process heath management of system, the data collection, real-time detection, state measurement, modeling, prediction and anomaly evaluation have become more and more important, especially for some precision devices and complex systems requiring high reliability [5,6].…”

Establishing a Berry Sensory Evaluation Model Based on Machine Learning

“…SVMs are also used to improve remote sensing image classification [ 20 ]. SVMs can not only characterize the nonlinear relationship between multiple characteristics of sample input data and target output data, but also have high accuracy and good stability [ 21 ]. The main factors affecting the accuracy, stability, and generalization of SVMs are the penalty factor and relaxation factor [ 22 ].…”

Development of main functional modules for MVB and its application in rail transit

“…As a train neural network system, the train communication network (TCN) is widely applied. Many countries in the world have been working on fundamental research and product application of TCN [12][13][14][15] for a long time, and have successfully developed their own TCN systems. For example, Shinkansen ARCNET train network control system was applied in Japan, TGV series high-speed train WordFIP train network control system in France.…”
