Abstract

In the era of big data, longer time series fault signals will not only be easy to copy and store, but also reduce the labor cost of manual labeling, which can better meet the needs of industrial big data. Aiming to effectively extract the key classification information from a longer time series of bearing vibration signals and achieve high diagnostic accuracy under noise and different load conditions. The one-dimensional adaptive long sequence convolutional network (ALSCN) is proposed. ALSCN can better extract features directly from high-dimensional original signals without manually extracting features and relying on expert knowledge. By adding two improved multi-scale modules, ALSCN can not only extract important features efficiently from noise signals, but also alleviate the problem of losing key information due to continuous down-sampling. Moreover, a Bayesian optimization algorithm is constructed to automatically find the best combination of hyperparameters in ALSCN. Based on two bearing data sets, the model is compared with traditional model such as SVM and deep learning models such as convolutional neural networks (CNN) et al. The results prove that ALSCN has a higher diagnostic accuracy rate on 5120-dimensional sequences under -5 signal to noise ratio (SNR) with better generalization.
