Rolling-Element Bearing Fault Diagnosis Using Improved LeNet-5 Network.

ABSTRACT: To address the problems of low recognition accuracy, slow convergence speed and weak generalization ability of traditional LeNet-5 network used in rolling-element bearing fault diagnosis, a rolling-element bearing fault diagnosis method using improved 2D LeNet-5 network is put forward. The following improvements to the traditional LeNet-5 network are made: the convolution and pooling layers are reasonably designed and the size and number of convolution kernels are carefully adjusted to improve fault classification capability; the batch normalization (BN) is adopted after each convolution layer to improve convergence speed; the dropout operation is performed after each full-connection layer except the last layer to enhance generalization ability. To further improve the efficiency and effectiveness of fault diagnosis, on the basis of improved 2D LeNet-5 network, an end-to-end rolling-element bearing fault diagnosis method based on the improved 1D LeNet-5 network is proposed, which can directly perform 1D convolution and pooling operations on raw vibration signals without any preprocessing. The results show that the improved 2D LeNet-5 network and improved 1D LeNet-5 network achieve a significant performance improvement than traditional LeNet-5 network, the improved 1D LeNet-5 network provides a higher fault diagnosis accuracy with a less training time in most cases, and the improved 2D LeNet-5 network performs better than improved 1D LeNet-5 network under small training samples and strong noise environment.
