However, in actual production, the problem of insufficient fault samples and the difference in data domains caused by different working conditions seriously limit the improvement of model diagnosis ability. In recent years, meta-learning has attracted widespread attention from scholars as one of the main methods of few-shot learning. It can quickly adapt to new tasks by training on a small number of samples. A fine-tuning prototypical network (FPN) is proposed on meta-learning methods to address the challenges of fault diagnosis under few-shot and cross-domain. Firstly, the shuffle attention (SA) is used to enhance the feature extraction ability of the network and suppress irrelevant features. Then, the support set of the target domain is split into two parts: pseudo support set and pseudo query set, which are used to fine-tune the prototypical network and improve the model generalization. Finally, experiments are conducted on three rotating equipment datasets to verify the method's effectiveness.","PeriodicalId":510602,"journal":{"name":"Measurement Science and Technology","volume":"11 5","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-07-26","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141799354","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Additionally, variations in operating conditions and differences in sensor installations exacerbate data distribution shifts, significantly increasing the difficulty of fault diagnosis. To address the above issues, this paper proposes a Wavelet Dynamic Joint Self-Adaptive Network guided by a Pseudo-Label Alignment Mechanism (WDJSN-DFL). First, the Wavelet-Efficient Convolution Module (WECM) is designed based on wavelet convolution and efficient attention mechanisms. This module is used to construct a multi-wavelet convolution feature extractor to extract critical fault features at multiple levels. Secondly, to improve the classifier's discriminability in the target domain, a transitional clustering-guided pseudo-label alignment mechanism (DFL) is developed. This mechanism can capture fuzzy classification samples and improve the pseudo-label quality of the target domain. Finally, a dynamic joint adaptive algorithm (DJSN) is proposed, which is composed of Joint Maximum Mean Square Discrepancy (JMSD) and Joint Maximum Mean Discrepancy (JMMD). The algorithm can adaptively adjust according to the dynamic balance factor to minimize the domain distribution discrepancy. Experiments on two different gearbox datasets show that WDJSN-DFL performs better in diagnostic scenarios under varying load conditions and different sensor installation setups, validating the proposed method's effectiveness and superiority.","PeriodicalId":510602,"journal":{"name":"Measurement Science and Technology","volume":"50 19","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-07-26","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141799733","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In this paper, an efficient algorithm for calculating the inverse involute function is proposed. Firstly, the initial approximate solution of the pressure angle near 0 rad is established by using Padé approximation and one step of Schröder iteration. Then the involute equation is transformed into another form by introducing a variable transformation, and the initial approximate solution of the pressure angle near π/2 rad is constructed by using the same method. The piecewise initial approximate solution over the entire interval of expanded angle is obtained by combining these solutions. The accuracy of the initial approximate solution can be significantly improved by using one step of Schröder iteration again. A numerical example of two-pin measurement is presented to show the superiority of our method over traditional iterative approach.

Classification accuracy greater than 90% was achieved. The simulated data were generated using an analytical model of a magnetic dipole in air and seawater placed 1.5 – 3.5 m above the center of the sphere in 50 cm increments. The spheres had radii of 40 cm and 50 cm and were of permeable materials, such as steel, and non-permeable materials, such as aluminum. A series RL circuit was analytically modeled as the transmitter coil, and an RLC circuit as the receiver coil. Additive white Gaussian noise was added to the simulated data to test the robustness of the machine learning algorithms to noise. Multiple machine learning algorithms were used for classification including a perceptron and multiclass logistic regression, which are linear models, and a neural network, 1D convolutional neural network (CNN), and 2D CNN, which are nonlinear models. Feature maps are plotted for the CNNs and provide explainability of the salient parts of the time signature and spectrogram data used for classification. The pulses investigated, which expand the literature, include a two-sided decaying exponential, Heaviside step-off, triangular, Gaussian, rectangular, modulated Gaussian, raised cosine, and rectangular down-chirp. Propagation effects, including dispersion and frequency dependent attenuation, are encapsulated by the analytical model, which was verified using finite element modeling. The results in this paper show that machine learning methods are a viable alternative to inversion of electromagnetic induction (EMI) data for metallic sphere classification, with the advantage of real-time classification without the use of a physics-based model. The nonlinear machine learning algorithms used in this work were able to accurately classify metallic spheres in seawater even with significant pulse distortion caused by dispersion and frequency dependent attenuation. This paper presents the first effort towards the use of machine learning to classify metallic objects in seawater based on EMI sensing.","PeriodicalId":510602,"journal":{"name":"Measurement Science and Technology","volume":"108 12","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-07-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141802207","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Instead of embedding the stepped phase into a sinusoidal pattern, we embed the multivariate gray code pattern into a sinusoidal pattern, which reduces the gray levels in the phase coding pattern to a larger extent and widens the longitudinal phase width between each step in the coding pattern. After the camera captures the deformed coding pattern, the deformed multivariate gray code is dequantified by the phase difference and the gray level, and the high-quality high-frequency ladder code word is obtained by decoding the quantized multivariate gray code.In addition, the step code word is superimposed with the binary wrapped phase and then filtered to obtain a correction code word for correcting the phase error.

The orthogonal composite pattern uses only two carrier channels to reduce the spectrum overlapping influence on the demodulation accuracy of carrier and modulated fringes. A two-dimensional variational mode decomposition (2DVMD) method is adopted to remove the background DC component of the sinusoidal fringe to overcome the mode overlap problem by controlling the size of the bandwidth.

The presence of noise interference in the status signal of rolling bearings often hampers accurate fault detection. Although there are various methods for preprocessing vibration signals in rolling bearings, they need further improvement in terms of enhancing fault feature expression and localizing fault frequency bands. This limitation significantly hinders the accuracy of fault frequency determination. In order to enhance the representation of fault information on the frequency spectrum, this study proposes a combined approach that incorporates sparse stacked autoencoder (SSAE), wavelet packet decomposition (WPD), and adaptive spectrum amplitude modulation (ASAM). The resulting method is referred to as SSAE-WPD-ASAM. Firstly, the bearing vibration signal is decomposed by wavelet packet according to the scale and frequency band of the signal. On this basis, the signal reconstruction is realized based on the wavelet packet coefficient and energy distribution in different frequency bands. Secondly, for the whole life cycle signal, the reconstructed signal is self-encoded by sparse stacked autoencoder to achieve dimensionality reduction of the reconstructed signal. Then, the spare reconstructed signal is subjected to adaptive spectrum amplitude modulation (ASAM). Finally, through envelope demodulation, peak detection of fault frequency and empirical fault frequency comparison, the specific fault types of rolling bearings are determined. The proposed method is verified by theoretical simulation and three groups of practical experiments. The results show that the proposed method has a significant improvement in diagnostic efficiency and accuracy compared with traditional diagnostic methods.","PeriodicalId":510602,"journal":{"name":"Measurement Science and Technology","volume":"28 2","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-07-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141805151","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
