Abstract

Sensors of an aircraft engine have the problems of multiple kinds of faults and difficulty to diagnose. Moreover, the diagnosis performance cannot meet practical demands. Therefore, this paper proposes a novel approach for sensor fault diagnosis integrating the advantages of selective ensemble learning, siamese convolutional neural network (SCNN), and Bayesian interval estimation (BIE). The Bayesian interval estimation with hypothesis testing is developed with real-time data update to reduce the confidence interval. The attention mechanism is introduced to enhance fault diagnosis performance. Moreover, ensemble selection learning with Akaike information criteria is proposed to obtain optimal SCNNs. The theorems of convergence and optimal confidence data in ensemble learning are proven. Furthermore, this paper develops a novel improved learning algorithm based on AdaMod (Adaptive and momental bound method) and SGD (stochastic gradient descent), and achieves a new fault diagnosis algorithm to improve the diagnosis performance. The sensor data of aircraft engines from China Eastern Airlines is adopted for validation and experimental results show that proposed approach reaches an excellent tradeoff between sensor diagnosis performance, confidence interval, and runtime. The ablation studies are performed to analyze the role of leaner’s components. The proposed method improves training accuracy by 6.2%, fault diagnosis performance by 5.1%, fault prediction mean result by 4.6%, and fault prediction variance is reduced by 38.1% than the state-of-the-art methods.
