Predictive maintenance (PdM) is implemented to efficiently manage maintenance schedules of machinery and equipment in manufacturing by predicting potential faults with advanced technologies such as sensors, data analysis, and machine learning algorithms. This paper introduces a study of different methodologies for automatically classifying the failures in PdM data. We first present the performance evaluation of fault classification performed by shallow machine learning (SML) methods such as Decision Trees, Support Vector Machines, k-Nearest Neighbors, and one-dimensional deep learning (DL) techniques like 1D-LeNet, 1D-AlexNet, and 1D-VGG16. Then, we apply normalization, which is a scaling technique in which features are shifted and rescaled in the dataset. We reapply classification algorithms to the normalized dataset and present the performance tables in comparison with the first results we obtained. Moreover, in contrast to existing studies in the literature, we generate balanced dataset groups by randomly selecting normal data and all faulty data for all fault types from the original dataset. The dataset groups are generated with 100 different repetitions, recording performance scores for each one and presenting the maximum scores. All methods utilized in the study are similarly employed on these groups. From these scores, the use of 1D-LeNet deep learning classifiers and feature normalization resulted in achieving the highest overall accuracy and F1-score performance of 98.50% and 98.32%, respectively. As a result, the goal of this study was to develop an efficient approach for automatic fault classification, leveraging data balance, and additionally, to provide an analysis of one-dimensional deep learning and shallow machine learning-based classification methods. In light of the experimentation and comparative analysis, this study successfully achieves its stated goal by demonstrating that one-dimensional deep learning and data balance collectively emerge as the optimal approach, offering good prediction accuracy.

Mechanical condition monitoring data in real engineering are often severely unbalanced, which can lead to a decrease in the stability and accuracy of intelligent diagnosis methods. In this paper, a fault diagnosis method based on the SMOTE + Tomek Link and dual-channel feature fusion is proposed to improve the performance of the sample imbalance fault diagnosis method, taking the piston pump of a turnout rutting machine as the research object. Combining the data undersampling method and the oversampling method to redistribute the collected normal data and fault data makes the diagnostic model have better diagnostic performance in the case of insufficient fault samples. And, in order to fully utilize the global features and local features, a global–local feature complementary module (GLFC) is proposed. Firstly, the generated data similar to the original data are constructed using the SMOTE + Tomek Link method; secondly, the generated data are input into a GLFC module and BiGRU at the same time, the GLFC module extracts the spatial global features and local features of the original vibration data, and BiGRU extracts the temporal information features of the original vibration data, and fuses the extracted feature information, and inputs the fused features into the attention layer; finally, a GLFC module is proposed by the SMOTE + Tomek Link method to make full use of the global features and local features. The extracted feature information is fused, and the fused features are input to the attention layer; finally, the fault classification is completed by the softmax classifier. In this paper, the accuracy and robustness of the proposed model are demonstrated through experiments.

In this era of advanced manufacturing, it's now more crucial than ever to diagnose machine faults as early as possible to guarantee their safe and efficient operation. With the massive surge in industrial big data and advancement in sensing and computational technologies, data-driven Machinery Fault Diagnosis (MFD) solutions based on machine/deep learning approaches have been used ubiquitously in manufacturing. Timely and accurately identifying faulty machine signals is vital in industrial applications for which many relevant solutions have been proposed and are reviewed in many articles. Despite the availability of numerous solutions and reviews on MFD, existing works often lack several aspects. Most of the available literature has limited applicability in a wide range of manufacturing settings due to their concentration on a particular type of equipment or method of analysis. Additionally, discussions regarding the challenges associated with implementing data-driven approaches, such as dealing with noisy data, selecting appropriate features, and adapting models to accommodate new or unforeseen faults, are often superficial or completely overlooked. Thus, this survey provides a comprehensive review of the articles using different types of machine learning approaches for the detection and diagnosis of various types of machinery faults, highlights their strengths and limitations, provides a review of the methods used for condition-based analyses, comprehensively discusses the available machinery fault datasets, introduces future researchers to the possible challenges they have to encounter while using these approaches for MFD and recommends the probable solutions to mitigate those problems. The future research prospects are also pointed out for a better understanding of the field. We believe this article will help researchers and contribute to the further development of the field.

This research introduces a groundbreaking method for bearing defect detection. It leverages ensemble machine learning (ML) models and conducts comprehensive feature importance analysis. The key innovation is the training and benchmarking of three tree ensemble models—Decision Tree (DT), Random Forest (RF), and Extreme Gradient Boosting (XGBoost)—on an extensive experimental dataset (QU-DMBF) collected from bearing tests with seeded defects of varying sizes on the inner and outer raceways under different operating conditions. The dataset was meticulously prepared with categorical variable encoding and Min–Max data normalization to ensure consistent class distribution and model accuracy. Implementing the ML models involved a grid search method for hyperparameter tuning, focusing on reporting the models’ accuracy. The study also explores applying ensemble methods and using supervised and unsupervised learning algorithms for bearing fault detection. It underscores the value of feature importance analysis in understanding the contributions of specific inputs to the model’s performance. The research compares the ML models to traditional methods and discusses their potential for advanced fault diagnosis in bearing systems. The XGBoost model, trained on data from actual bearing tests, outperformed the others, achieving 92% accuracy in detecting bearing health and fault location. However, a deeper analysis of feature importance reveals that the models weigh certain experimental conditions differently—such as sensor location and motor speed. This research’s primary novelties and contributions are comparative evaluation, experimental validation, accuracy benchmarking, and interpretable feature importance analysis. This comprehensive methodology advances the bearing health monitoring field and has significant practical implications for condition-based maintenance, potentially leading to substantial cost savings and improved operational efficiency.

Early cancer detection is crucial, especially for intestinal cancer with subtle early symptoms. While camera-based Wireless Capsule Endoscopy (WCE) systems are efficient, patient-friendly, and safe investigating gastrointestinal (GI) track thoroughly, some limitations persist in visualizing only the inner part of the GI regions. Our study introduces a radio channel analysis -based approach to detect intestinal/abdominal tumors which are not visible for the WCE camera, i.e., the tumors which have started to grow on the outer parts of the intestinal track. Focused on S-parameter patterns in realistic human voxel models, our simulation-based method discerns dielectric property variations in normal and tumorous tissues, replicating intricate tissue characteristics. Preliminary simulation results in different intestine locations demonstrate our technique’s efficacy in differentiating normal and tumor cases based on S-parameter patterns. With a 98% accuracy rate, simple logistic regression classification model excels in distinguishing normal from tumor tissues, significantly enhancing diagnostic precision in GI health monitoring showcasing its potential to revolutionize early cancer detection and advance diagnostic accuracy within simulated human anatomy. This represents a substantial stride toward improving healthcare outcomes through cutting-edge technology.

Machinery health monitoring techniques provide valuable insights into the performance and condition of machines. Acoustic sensor-based monitoring has emerged as a significant area of interest for the industry due to its ability to accurately capture fault signatures, thereby improving the detection accuracies of anomalies or deviations from regular operations. However, the collected sensor signals typically contain a complex mixture of sounds that relate to multiple fault conditions, environmental noise, and other unwanted sounds from the surroundings. Identifying the specific root causes of failures is a challenge in modeling without knowledge of the unique characteristics of failure conditions. This can ultimately degrade the model’s performance or yield inaccurate failure estimations in condition monitoring, which is a consistent concern in the industry. Therefore, this study proposes a novel framework that enhances the accuracy of machinery fault diagnosis using audio source separation of complex mixture of sound signals. The proposed approach employs a Deep Extractor for Music Source Separation (DEMUCS), a state-of-the-art music source separation approach consisting of an encoder-decoder architecture that uses bi-directional long-short-term memory (LSTM) for industrial machine sound separation and enhancement. The proposed methodology comprises two steps. In the first step, the fault sound isolation and recovering individual fault sounds from a complex mixture of sound signals are enabled using DEMUCS. In the second step, the isolated fault sounds are fed through a 1D-convolutional neural network (1D-CNN) classifier for adequate classification. A machine fault simulator by Spectra Quest equipped with a condenser mic was employed to evaluate the proposed DEMUCS-CNN methodology for identifying multiple faults. The effectiveness of the DEMUCS-CNN method was also compared to the traditional approach of blind source separation (BSS). The outcomes of the comparison indicated that the suggested approach of fault isolation by DEMUCS led to enhanced fault classification accuracy, making it a more effective approach compared to conventional BSS.

In this paper, an application of an artificial neural network algorithm is proposed to enhance the accuracy of temperature measurement using a fiber-optic sensor based on a Fabry–Perot interferometer (FPI). It is assumed that the interrogation of the FPI is carried out using an optical comb generator realizing a microwave photonic approach. Firstly, modelling of the reflection spectrum of a Fabry–Perot interferometer is implemented. Secondly, probing of the obtained spectrum using a comb-generator model is performed. The resulting electrical signal of the photodetector is processed and is used to create a sample for artificial neural network training aimed at temperature detection. It is demonstrated that the artificial neural network implementation can predict temperature variations with an accuracy equal to 0.018 °C in the range from −10 to +10 °C and 0.147 in the range from −15 to +15 °C.

In the realm of industrial production, condition monitoring plays a pivotal role in ensuring the reliability and longevity of rotating machinery. Since most of the production facilities rely heavily on vibration analysis, it has become the cornerstone of condition monitoring practices. However, manual analysis of vibration signals is a time-consuming and expertise-intensive task, often requiring specialized domain knowledge. The current research addresses the aforementioned challenges by proposing a novel semi-automated diagnostics system. The approach leverages historical vibration data in the form of Fast Fourier Transform (FFT) spectrums. The system extracts energy features from the frequency domain by dividing the frequency range into a predefined number of bins and summing the energy values within each bin. Subsequently, each datapoint is labeled based on the corresponding machine condition, enabling the system to learn diagnostic patterns by employing machine learning models. This approach facilitates efficient and accurate diagnostics with minimal manual intervention. The resulting dataset effectively represents and provides an interpretable result. Support Vector Machines (SVM), and ensemble algorithms are utilized to diagnose the faults instantaneously and with minimal error rates. The proposed system is capable of providing early warnings and thus prevents further deterioration and unplanned downtimes. Experimental validation using real-world data demonstrates the system's efficacy, achieving an accuracy of over 90%.

Previous 1D convolutional neural networks (1D CNN) models for vibration fault diagnosis have high computational complexity and poor interpretability, which cannot meet the higher requirements of model storage, computational efficiency and reliability for airborne and portable devices. Considering these challenges, an Explainable and Lightweight 1D CNN (ELCNN) model based on Square Global Average Pooling (S-GAP) and improved for vibration signals is proposed. The feature extraction and classification layers of 1D CNN are optimized to minimize the model parameters and computational complexity and improve interpretability while ensuring diagnostic accuracy. The model compresses the number of convolutional layers, removes unnecessary bias, activation function and pooling layer, and replaces the fully connected layer (FCL) with S-GAP. Improved 1D CNN models of different methods are evaluated and analyzed on public datasets of rolling bearings. Results show that the ELCNN improved for vibration signals is more lightweight, anti-noise and explainable than other models, and the diagnostic accuracy is further improved.

Pipeline networks are crucial components of modern infrastructure, and ensuring their reliable operation is essential for sustainable development. The percussion-based methods are considered promising for detecting pipeline faults due to their avoidance of constant-contact sensors and ease of implementation. However, the majority of existing percussion-based methods suffer from limitations such as the requirement for manual feature extraction, as well as subpar noise resilience and adaptability. This paper introduces a one-dimensional convolutional bidirectional long short-term memory network with wide first-layer kernels for the classification of percussion-induced acoustic signals, thus achieving automatic identification of pipeline leakage and water deposit conditions. This approach directly extracts features from audio signals using wide first-layer convolutional kernels, eliminating the need for manual feature extraction. Additionally, it employs bidirectional long short-term memory to effectively capture long-term signal dependencies from both past and future contexts. To validate the effectiveness of the method, two case studies were conducted on three groups of pipes. The results show that the proposed method demonstrates superior noise resistance and adaptability compared to other methods, and it also exhibits strong applicability to other percussion signal datasets. Additionally, the impact of different first convolutional kernel sizes on the noise resistance and adaptive performance of the model was investigated, which provides robust guidance for the effective processing of percussion-induced acoustic signals.
