Abstract
Early detection of bearing faults in rotating machinery is essential for predictive maintenance. Although deep learning-based methods have achieved strong results in fault diagnosis, they usually require large amounts of labeled data. In industrial settings, however, faulty samples are limited, which restricts the applicability of fully supervised approaches. In this study, a bearing fault diagnosis framework based on unsupervised representation learning is proposed for limited-label scenarios. Firstly, a convolutional autoencoder is trained on raw vibration signals without using labels to learn informative latent representations. After that, these learned representations are classified using only a limited number of labeled samples. The proposed method is evaluated on the CWRU bearing dataset under same-load and cross-load settings with both single and dual-channel inputs. Experimental results show that the proposed framework achieves strong performance under low-label conditions and that the dual-channel setup further improves classification performance.
An improved dynamic pseudo-label learning strategy is developed, improving model generalization by involving more unlabeled data in training, and a noise reduction learning strategy based on self-supervised learning is proposed, extracting invariant features under noise conditions by a new optimization objective.
