Electrical submersible pump fault diagnosis based on 2D transformation of vibration signals and transfer learning of image classification networks
摘要
Diagnosing faults in electrical submersible pumps using intelligent methods is a challenging task, especially when deep learning techniques are used to extract features directly from vibration signals instead of relying on predefined human features. A key limitation of this approach is the lack of foundational models for machine fault diagnosis using vibration data, unlike the abundance of pre-trained networks available for image classification. To address this, we propose a method that applies various 2D transformations to time domain signals, combines them into RGB images, and leverages these images to fine-tune existing image classification networks. Our results demonstrate that this approach outperforms the state-of-the-art previous deep learning method based on metric learning applied to this task and is comparable to the solution using human-defined features.
