Abstract

Abstract : Increased attention has been paid to research on intelligent fault diagnosis under acoustic signals. However, the signal-to-noise ratio of acoustic signals is much lower than vibration signals, which increases the difficulty of signal denoising and feature extraction. To solve the above defect, a novel batch-normalized deep sparse filtering (DSF) method is proposed to diagnose the fault through the acoustic signals of rotating machinery. In the first stage, the collected acoustic signals are prenormalized to eliminate the adverse effects of singular samples, and then the normalized signal is transformed into frequency-domain signal through fast Fourier transform (FFT). In the second stage, the learned features are obtained by training batch-normalized DSF with frequency-domain signals, and then the features are fine-tuned by backpropagation (BP) algorithm. In the third stage, softmax regression is used as a classifier for heath condition recognition based on the fine-tuned features. Bearing and planetary gear datasets are used to validate the diagnostic performance of the proposed method. The results show that the proposed DSF model can extract more powerful features and less computing time than other traditional methods.
