Abstract
The critical issue of wheeled robot fault diagnosis is to comprehensively evaluate its health condition using multi-sensor data, but traditional deep learning-based methods are hard to model the relationships among sensor measurements. Unlike these methods, the graph convolutional network (GCN), which uses the graph-structured data along with the association graph as input, is more efficient for relationship modeling. However, existing GCN-based fault diagnosis methods suffer from the following weaknesses: 1) the association graphs are obtained according to the similarity of data samples or their features, which cannot guarantee accuracy; 2) these models are focused on spatial correlations and neglect temporal correlations. To address these problems, we propose to construct the association graph based on prior knowledge, i.e., a simplified mathematical model of the wheeled robot. Moreover, we develop a spatial-temporal difference graph convolutional network (STDGCN) for wheeled robot fault diagnosis. This network contains a difference layer that utilizes localized difference properties for feature enhancement, and the spatial-temporal graph convolutional modules are introduced to jointly capture the spatial-temporal correlations. To verify the effectiveness of STDGCN for fault diagnosis, experiments are carried out, and the results show that STDGCN achieves superior performance.
