Adaptive resonance demodulation semantic-induced zero-shot compound fault diagnosis for railway bearings

Abstract

For the challenges of diverse compound faults and low identification accuracy of railway bearings, a new zero-shot diagnosis model based on adaptive resonance demodulation semantic is proposed for the compound fault diagnosis of railway bearings. The model adopts adaptive resonance demodulation to identify the optimal resonance frequency band rich in fault information in bearing signals, and constructs the single and compound fault semantics of samples without separating the compound fault signals, thus improving the interpretability of semantic features. Moreover, spatial Euclidean distance is used to measure the similarity of features and semantics in the mapping space, which enables the identification of unknown compound faults by single faults. Verification through railway bearing data shows that this model effectively improves the compound fault identification accuracy under zero samples and is better than the comparison models. The research results can provide theoretical reference for the research and application of railway bearing fault diagnosis.
