Item Fault diagnosis of deep groove ball bearing through discrete wavelet features using support vector machine(COMADEM International rajbknrao@btinternet.com, 2014) Vernekar, K.; Kumar, H.; Gangadharan, K.V.Bearings are the most important and frequently used machine components in most of the rotating machinery. In industry, breakdown of such crucial components causes heavy losses. So prevention of failure of such components is very essential. This paper presents an online fault detection of a bearing used in an internal combustion engine through machine learning approach using vibration signals of bearing in healthy and simulated faulty conditions. Vibration signals are acquired from bearing in healthy as well as different simulated fault conditions of bearing. The Discrete Wavelet Transform (DWT) features were extracted from vibration signals using MATLAB program. Decision tree technique (J48 algorithm) has been used for important feature selection out of extracted DWT features. Support vector machine is being used as a classifier and obtained results found with classification accuracy of 98.67%.The advantage of machine learning technique for fault diagnosis over conventional vibration analysis approach has demonstrated in this paper.Item Fault diagnosis studies of face milling cutter using machine learning approach(Multi-Science Publishing Co. Ltd claims@sagepub.com, 2016) Madhusudana, C.K.; Budati, S.; Gangadhar, N.; Kumar, H.; Narendranath, S.Successful automation of a machining process system requires an effective and efficient tool condition monitoring system to ensure high productivity, products of desired dimensions, and long machine tool life. As such the component's processing quality and increased system reliability will be guaranteed. This paper presents a classification of healthy and faulty conditions of the face milling tool by using the Naive Bayes technique. A set of descriptive statistical parameters is extracted from the vibration signals. The decision tree technique is used to select significant features out of all statistical extracted features. The selected features are fed to the Naive Bayes algorithm. The output of the algorithm is used to study and classify the milling tool condition and it is found that the Naive Bayes model is able to give 96.9% classification accuracy. Also the performances of the different classifiers are compared. Based on the results obtained, the Naive Bayes technique can be recommended for online monitoring and fault diagnosis of the face milling tool. © 2016 The Author(s).Item Semantics-based Web service classification using morphological analysis and ensemble learning techniques(Springer Science and Business Media Deutschland GmbH, 2016) Kamath S?, S.S.; Ananthanarayana, V.S.With the emergence of the Programmable Web paradigm, the World Wide Web is evolving into a Web of Services, where data and services can be effectively reused across applications. Given the wide diversity and scale of published Web services, the problem of service discovery is a big challenge for service-based application development. This is further compounded by the limited availability of intelligent categorization and service management frameworks. In this paper, an approach that extends service similarity analysis by using morphological analysis and machine learning techniques for capturing the functional semantics of real-world Web services for facilitating effective categorization is presented. To capture the functional diversity of the services, different feature vector selection techniques are used to represent a service in vector space, with the aim of finding the optimal set of features. Using these feature vector models, services are classified as per their domain, using ensemble machine learning methods. Experiments were performed to validate the classification accuracy with respect to the various service feature vector models designed, and the results emphasize the effectiveness of the proposed approach. © 2016, Springer International Publishing Switzerland.Item Application and Evaluation of Random Forest Classifier Technique for Fault Detection in Bioreactor Operation(Taylor and Francis Ltd. michael.wagreich@univie.ac.at, 2017) Shrivastava, R.; Mahalingam, H.; Dutta, N.N.Bioreactors and associated bioprocesses are quite complex and nonlinear in nature. A small change in initial condition can greatly alter the output product quality. It is pretty difficult at times to model the system mathematically. In this work, the fault detection problem is studied in the context of bioreactors, mainly, a reactor from the penicillin production process. It is very important to identify the faults in a live process to avoid product quality deterioration. We have focused on the process history-based methods to identify the faults in a bioreactor. We want to introduce random forest (RF), a powerful machine learning algorithm, to identify several types of faults in a bioreactor. The algorithm is simple, easy to use, shows very good generalization ability without compromising much on the classification accuracies, and also has an ability to give variable importance as a part of the algorithm output. We compared its performance with two popular methods, namely support vector machines (SVM) and artificial neural networks (ANN), and found that the overall performance is superior in terms of classification accuracies and generalization ability. © 2017, Copyright © Taylor & Francis Group, LLC.Item Engine gearbox fault diagnosis using empirical mode decomposition method and Naïve Bayes algorithm(Springer India sanjiv.goswami@springer.co.in, 2017) Vernekar, K.; Kumar, H.; Gangadharan, K.V.This paper presents engine gearbox fault diagnosis based on empirical mode decomposition (EMD) and Naïve Bayes algorithm. In this study, vibration signals from a gear box are acquired with healthy and different simulated faulty conditions of gear and bearing. The vibration signals are decomposed into a finite number of intrinsic mode functions using the EMD method. Decision tree technique (J48 algorithm) is used for important feature selection out of extracted features. Naïve Bayes algorithm is applied as a fault classifier to know the status of an engine. The experimental result (classification accuracy 98.88%) demonstrates that the proposed approach is an effective method for engine fault diagnosis. © 2017, Indian Academy of Sciences.Item Face milling tool condition monitoring using sound signal(Springer, 2017) Madhusudana, C.K.; Kumar, H.; Narendranath, S.This article presents the fault diagnosis of the face milling tool using sound signal. During milling, sound signals of the face milling tool under healthy and fault conditions are acquired. Discrete wavelet transform (DWT) features are extracted from the acquired sound signals. The support vector machine (SVM) technique is used to classify the face milling tool conditions using the extracted DWT features. Also, a comparison of classification efficiencies of different classifiers with respect to different features extraction methods is carried out. It is shown that, all extracted DWT features demonstrate better results than those obtained from selected statistical features and empirical mode decomposition features. The SVM technique is the best classifier as it has given an encouraging result in this study when compared to other classifiers, and it has provided 83% classification accuracy for the given experimental conditions and workpiece of steel alloy 42CrMo4. Hence, the SVM method and DWT technique can be put forward for the applications of condition monitoring of the face milling tool with sound signal. © 2017, The Society for Reliability Engineering, Quality and Operations Management (SREQOM), India and The Division of Operation and Maintenance, Lulea University of Technology, Sweden.Item Use of discrete wavelet features and support vector machine for fault diagnosis of face milling tool(Tech Science Press sale@techscience.com, 2018) Madhusudana, C.K.; Gangadhar, N.; Kumar, H.; Narendranath, S.This paper presents the fault diagnosis of face milling tool based on machine learning approach. While machining, spindle vibration signals in feed direction under healthy and faulty conditions of the milling tool are acquired. A set of discrete wavelet features is extracted from the vibration signals using discrete wavelet transform (DWT) technique. The decision tree technique is used to select significant features out of all extracted wavelet features. C-support vector classification (C-SVC) and ?-support vector classification (?-SVC) models with different kernel functions of support vector machine (SVM) are used to study and classify the tool condition based on selected features. From the results obtained, C-SVC is the best model than ?-SVC and it can be able to give 94.5% classification accuracy for face milling of special steel alloy 42CrMo4. © © 2018 Tech Science Press..Item A novel pre-processing procedure for enhanced feature extraction and characterization of electromyogram signals(Elsevier Ltd, 2018) Powar, O.S.; Chemmangat, K.; Figarado, S.In the analysis of electromyogram signals, the challenge lies in the suppression of noise associated with the measurement and signal conditioning. The main aim of this paper is to present a novel pre-processing step, namely Minimum Entropy Deconvolution Adjusted (MEDA), to enhance the signal for feature extraction resulting in better characterization of different upper limb motions. MEDA method is based on finding the set of filter coefficients that recover the output signal with maximum value of kurtosis while minimizing the low kurtosis noise components. The proposed method has been validated on surface electromyogram dataset collected from seven subjects performing eight classes of hand movements (wrist flexion, wrist radial deviation, hand close, tripod, wrist extension, wrist ulnar deviation, cylindrical and key grip) with only two pairs of electrodes recorded from flexor carpi radialis and extensor carpi radialis on the forearm. The performance of the MEDA has been compared across four classifiers namely J-48, k-nearest neighbours (KNN), Naives Bayes and Linear Discriminant Analysis (LDA) attaining the classification accuracy of 85.3 ± 4%, 85.67 ± 5%, 76 ± 6% and 91.2 ± 2% respectively. Practical results demonstrate the feasibility of the approach with mean percentage increase in classification accuracy of 20.5%, without significant increase in computational time across seven subjects demonstrating the significance of MEDA in classification. © 2018 Elsevier LtdItem Engine gearbox fault diagnosis using machine learning approach(Emerald Group Publishing Ltd.

TCM provides continuously the condition of cutting tool by noticing various parameters such as temperature, acoustic emission and vibration. One of the best ways to monitor the condition of cutting tools for unmanned machining is by observing tool vibration signature. In the present work, vibration signals are acquired from the cutting tool. One healthy state and three faulty conditions of tools are considered for the study. The faulty tools considered in the current study are worn flank, broken tool and extended overhang. The vibration signals of these faulty tool conditions are used to train the machine learning algorithm. Statistical features are extracted from the vibration signal to feed as input to the J48 decision tree. The classifier algorithm used in the current study is rotation forest algorithm. The algorithm uses only significant features which are selected from a decision tree. The algorithm is validated with test dataset to recognize the faulty or healthy state of the tool. It was found that the algorithm could classify the tool condition with 95.00% classification accuracy. © 2019, Springer Nature Switzerland AG.
