Anomaly detection on NASA Bearing Dataset
- Aim was to detect the anomaly in the incipient stage of damage and also report the kind of defect if needed.
- Due to the absence of labelled data and presence of data from essentially one class, predictive modelling techique, like LSTM was used.
- LSTM models the normal behaviour of the bearings, and the prediction errors are subsequently used to identify abnormal behaviour.
- A level 0 warning is triggered when the errors cross the calculated upper/lower bounds. Continuous level 0 warnings lead to a level 1 warning (which means that the bearing is broken, and the machinery should be stopped to prevent further damage).
Detecting fault in a motor with broken rotor bars, with data recorded at different loads
- Healthy and unhealthy data were both recorded at 4 load conditions: no load, minimum load, medium load, full load.
- The vibration data was loaded and used in further steps for model building.
- Features were extracted and selected and LSTM and One-Class SVM models were built. Both of them gave comparable results.
