Extracting the fault characteristic information of rolling bearings from intense noise disturbance has been a heated research issue. Symplectic geometry mode decomposition (SGMD) has already been adopted for bearing fault diagnosis due to its advantages of no subjective customization of parameters and the ability to reconstruct existing modes. However, SGMD suffers from rapidly decreasing calculation efficiency as the amount of data increases, in addition to invalid symplectic geometry components affecting decomposition accuracy. The regularized composite multiscale fuzzy entropy (RCMFE) operator is constructed to evaluate the complexity of each initial single component and minimize the residual energy. Combined with the partial reconstruction threshold indicator to filter out specific significant initial single components, the raw signal can be decomposed into multiple physically meaningful symplectic geometric mode components. Therefore, the decomposition efficiency and accuracy can be enhanced. Thus, a rolling bearing fault diagnosis method is proposed based on partial reconstruction symplectic geometry mode decomposition (PRSGMD). Both simulated and experimental analysis results show that PRSGMD can improve the speed of SGMD analysis while increasing the decomposition accuracy, thereby augmenting the robustness and effectiveness of the algorithm.
