Fault diagnosis of rolling bearing using marine predators algorithm-based support vector machine and topology learning and out-of-sample embedding

The long-term safe operation of rotating machinery is closely related to the stability of rolling bearings. This paper proposes a rolling bearing fault diagnosis method based on refined composite multiscale fuzzy entropy (RCMFE), topology learning and out-of-sample embedding (TLOE), and the marine predators algorithm based-support vector machine (MPA-SVM). First, the RCMFE algorithm is used to extract the features of the original rolling bearing fault signal and to construct the original high-dimensional fault feature set. Then, TLOE is used to reduce the dimensionality of the high-dimensional fault feature set. The low-dimensional sensitive fault features are extracted to construct a low-dimensional fault feature subset. Finally, fault-type discrimination is performed using the MPA-SVM. The Case Western Reserve University dataset and data from fault diagnosis experiments performed on 1210 self-aligning ball bearings were used to verify the proposed method. The results demonstrate the effectiveness of the fault diagnosis method, which can diagnose bearing faults with up to 100% accuracy.
