Bearing degradation state recognition based on kernel PCA and wavelet kernel SVM

Abstract

In order to effectively recognize the bearing’s running state, a new method based on kernel principal component analysis (KPCA) and the Morlet wavelet kernel support vector machine (MWSVM) was proposed. First, the gathered vibration signals were decomposed by the empirical mode decomposition (EMD) to obtain the corresponding intrinsic mode function (IMF). The EMD energy entropy that includes dominant fault information is defined as the characteristic features. However, the extracted features remained high-dimensional, and excessive redundant information still existed. Therefore, the nonlinear feature extraction method KPCA was introduced to extract the characteristic features and to reduce the dimension. The extracted characteristic features were inputted into the MWSVM to train and construct the running state identification model, and the bearing’s running state identification was thereby realized. Cases of test and actual were analyzed. The results validate the effectiveness of the proposed algorithm.
