Abstract

Bearings are one of the most widely used components of rotating machinery, whose failure can cause serious injuries and economic losses, therefore bearing fault diagnosis is an essential step in maintaining the safe and stable operation of industrial processes. Bearing fault diagnosis aims to detect the bearing fault condition and accurately classify it into a fault category based on sensing signals, such as vibration data. In practical applications, bearings always work in different types of equipment and under various working conditions, leading to performance degradation of diagnosis models due to the domain gap between the training data and the test data. Domain adaptation has been developed to address the domain shift problem in bearing fault diagnosis with demonstrated efficacy. Current domain adaptation models focus on the single-source scenario, by ignoring that sensing data may be collected from multiple sources in practical applications, and then be annotated for mode training. In this situation, it is non-trivial to use the single-source domain adaptation model to address the multi-source domain shift problem, because the domain gap exists among the source domains and the target domain. To solve this problem, we propose a novel bearing fault diagnosis model based on classification decision fusion to address the problem of multi-source domain conversion. Firstly, we train a source-aware fault diagnosis model in each source domain and then use it to predict the fault labels of the target samples. Second, a similarity score between each source domain and target domain is computed based on their feature distributions using local discriminant analysis and Maximum Mean Discrepancy. Finally, the similarity scores are used as domain weights in a proposed classification decision fusion strategy that uses a weighted linear combination process of predicted fault labels to provide the final predicted labels for the target samples. The benefits of the adaptive weighting fusion based on the classification result level, which makes full use of the available data from multiple source domains, measures the differences in distribution between the source and target domains and automatically adjust the weights to improve the diagnostic capability of the target domain. The effectiveness of the proposed method for diagnosing bearing faults under different operating and measurement conditions was verified using a bearing data set provided by Case Western Reserve University.
