文摘To address the issue of scarce labeled samples and operational condition variations that degrade the accuracy of fault diagnosis models in variable-condition gearbox fault diagnosis,this paper proposes a semi-supervised masked contrastive learning and domain adaptation(SSMCL-DA)method for gearbox fault diagnosis under variable conditions.Initially,during the unsupervised pre-training phase,a dual signal augmentation strategy is devised,which simultaneously applies random masking in the time domain and random scaling in the frequency domain to unlabeled samples,thereby constructing more challenging positive sample pairs to guide the encoder in learning intrinsic features robust to condition variations.Subsequently,a ConvNeXt-Transformer hybrid architecture is employed,integrating the superior local detail modeling capacity of ConvNeXt with the robust global perception capability of Transformer to enhance feature extraction in complex scenarios.Thereafter,a contrastive learning model is constructed with the optimization objective of maximizing feature similarity across different masked instances of the same sample,enabling the extraction of consistent features from multiple masked perspectives and reducing reliance on labeled data.In the final supervised fine-tuning phase,a multi-scale attention mechanism is incorporated for feature rectification,and a domain adaptation module combining Local Maximum Mean Discrepancy(LMMD)with adversarial learning is proposed.This module embodies a dual mechanism:LMMD facilitates fine-grained class-conditional alignment,compelling features of identical fault classes to converge across varying conditions,while the domain discriminator utilizes adversarial training to guide the feature extractor toward learning domain-invariant features.Working in concert,they markedly diminish feature distribution discrepancies induced by changes in load,rotational speed,and other factors,thereby boosting the model’s adaptability to cross-condition scenarios.Experimental evaluations on the WT planetary gearbox dataset and the Case Western Reserve University(CWRU)bearing dataset demonstrate that the SSMCL-DA model effectively identifies multiple fault classes in gearboxes,with diagnostic performance substantially surpassing that of conventional methods.Under cross-condition scenarios,the model attains fault diagnosis accuracies of 99.21%for the WT planetary gearbox and 99.86%for the bearings,respectively.Furthermore,the model exhibits stable generalization capability in cross-device settings.
文摘[Objective]Leaf diseases significantly affect both the yield and quality of tea throughout the year.To address the issue of inadequate segmentation finesse in the current tea spot segmentation models,a novel diagnosis of the severity of tea spots was proposed in this research,designated as MDC-U-Net3+,to enhance segmentation accuracy on the base framework of U-Net3+.[Methods]Multi-scale feature fusion module(MSFFM)was incorporated into the backbone network of U-Net3+to obtain feature information across multiple receptive fields of diseased spots,thereby reducing the loss of features within the encoder.Dual multi-scale attention(DMSA)was incorporated into the skip connection process to mitigate the segmentation boundary ambiguity issue.This integration facilitates the comprehensive fusion of fine-grained and coarse-grained semantic information at full scale.Furthermore,the segmented mask image was subjected to conditional random fields(CRF)to enhance the optimization of the segmentation results[Results and Discussions]The improved model MDC-U-Net3+achieved a mean pixel accuracy(mPA)of 94.92%,accompanied by a mean Intersection over Union(mIoU)ratio of 90.9%.When compared to the mPA and mIoU of U-Net3+,MDC-U-Net3+model showed improvements of 1.85 and 2.12 percentage points,respectively.These results illustrated a more effective segmentation performance than that achieved by other classical semantic segmentation models.[Conclusions]The methodology presented herein could provide data support for automated disease detection and precise medication,consequently reducing the losses associated with tea diseases.

文摘One-dimensional ensemble dispersion entropy(EDE1D)is an effective nonlinear dynamic analysis method for complexity measurement of time series.However,it is only restricted to assessing the complexity of one-di-mensional time series(TS1d)with the extracted complexity features only at a single scale.Aiming at these problems,a new nonlinear dynamic analysis method termed two-dimensional composite multi-scale ensemble Gramian dispersion entropy(CMEGDE_(2D))is proposed in this paper.First,the TS_(1D) is transformed into a two-dimensional image(I_(2D))by using Gramian angular fields(GAF)with more internal data structures and geometri features,which preserve the global characteristics and time dependence of vibration signals.Second,the I2D is analyzed at multiple scales through the composite coarse-graining method,which overcomes the limitation of a single scale and provides greater stability compared to traditional coarse-graining methods.Subsequently,a new fault diagnosis method of rolling bearing is proposed based on the proposed CMEGDE_(2D) for fault feature ex-traction and the chicken swarm algorithm optimized support vector machine(CsO-SvM)for fault pattern identification.The simulation signals and two data sets of rolling bearings are utilized to verify the effectiveness of the proposed fault diagnosis method.The results demonstrate that the proposed method has stronger dis-crimination ability,higher fault diagnosis accuracy and better stability than the other compared methods.

文摘The misfolding,aggregation,and deposition of alpha-synuclein into Lewy bodies are pivotal events that trigger pathological changes in Parkinson's disease.Extracellular vesicles are nanosized lipidbilayer vesicles secreted by cells that play a crucial role in intercellular communication due to their diverse cargo.Among these,brain-derived extracellular vesicles,which are secreted by various brain cells such as neurons,glial cells,and Schwann cells,have garnered increasing attention.They serve as a promising tool for elucidating Parkinson's disease pathogenesis and for advancing diagnostic and therapeutic strategies.This review highlights the recent advancements in our understanding of brain-derived extracellular vesicles released into the blood and their role in the pathogenesis of Parkinson's disease,with specific emphasis on their involvement in the aggregation and spread of alpha-synuclein.Brain-derived extracellular vesicles contribute to disease progression through multiple mechanisms,including autophagy-lysosome dysfunction,neuroinflammation,and oxidative stress,collectively driving neurodegeneration in Parkinson's disease.Their application in Parkinson's disease diagnosis is a primary focus of this review.Recent studies have demonstrated that brainderived extracellular vesicles can be isolated from peripheral blood samples,as they carryα-synuclein and other key biomarkers such as DJ-1 and various micro RNAs.These findings highlight the potential of brain-derived extracellular vesicles,not only for the early diagnosis of Parkinson's disease but also for disease progression monitoring and differential diagnosis.Additionally,an overview of explorations into the potential therapeutic applications of brain-derived extracellular vesicles for Parkinson's disease is provided.Therapeutic strategies targeting brain-derived extracellular vesicles involve modulating the release and uptake of pathological alpha-synuclein-containing brain-derived extracellular vesicles to inhibit the spread of the protein.Moreover,brain-derived extracellular vesicles show immense promise as therapeutic delivery vehicles capable of transporting drugs into the central nervous system.Importantly,brain-derived extracellular vesicles also play a crucial role in neural regeneration by promoting neuronal protection,supporting axonal regeneration,and facilitating myelin repair,further enhancing their therapeutic potential in Parkinson's disease and other neurological disorders.Further clarification is needed of the methods for identifying and extracting brain-derived extracellular vesicles,and large-scale cohort studies are necessary to validate the accuracy and specificity of these biomarkers.Future research should focus on systematically elucidating the unique mechanistic roles of brain-derived extracellular vesicles,as well as their distinct advantages in the clinical translation of methods for early detection and therapeutic development.

文摘Current improved Empirical Mode Decomposition(EMD)methods enhance the accurate identification of peak and valley points in mechanical signals through noise-assisted filtering techniques,thereby improving the mode decomposition performance,which is of great significance in extracting fault features from mechanical signals.However,noise-assisted filtering leads to the loss of critical features in mechanical signals and introduces a large amount of residual noise into Intrinsic Mode Functions(IMFs)that obscure signal features.To address these issues,a Precise Identification-based Mode Decomposition(PIMD)method is proposed.This method directly enhances the ability of EMD to precisely identify peak and valley points by using a proposed precise identifi-cation approach,which improves mode decomposition performance and avoids the negative impacts of noise-assisted filtering,thus benefiting the extraction of more mechanical fault features.Simulation results show that the proposed PIMD method can precisely identify peak and valley points of signals with noise of different signal-tonoise ratios and perform a highly rigorous high-low frequency decomposition,significantly outperforming EMD.Finally,mechanical fault diagnostic experiments on four bearing cases and two gear cases demonstrate that,compared to four mainstream methods,the PIMD method exhibits the best mode decomposition perfor-mance and can extract more and clearer mechanical fault features.

文摘To address the issue of abnormal energy consumption fluctuations in the converter steelmaking process,an integrated diagnostic method combining the gray wolf optimization(GWO)algorithm,support vector machine(SVM),and K-means clustering was proposed.Eight input parameters—derived from molten iron conditions and external factors—were selected as feature variables.A GWO-SVM model was developed to accurately predict the energy consumption of individual heats.Based on the prediction results,the mean absolute percentage error and maximum relative error of the test set were employed as criteria to identify heats with abnormal energy usage.For these heats,the K-means clustering algorithm was used to determine benchmark values of influencing factors from similar steel grades,enabling root-cause diagnosis of excessive energy consumption.The proposed method was applied to real production data from a converter in a steel plant.The analysis reveals that heat sample No.44 exhibits abnormal energy consumption,due to gas recovery being 1430.28 kg of standard coal below the benchmark level.A secondary contributing factor is a steam recovery shortfall of 237.99 kg of standard coal.This integrated approach offers a scientifically grounded tool for energy management in converter operations and provides valuable guidance for optimizing process parameters and enhancing energy efficiency.

文摘Owing to the harsh conditions,wind turbine bearings are prone to faults,and the resulting fault information is easily submerged by strong noise disturbance,making conventional diagnosis challenging.Therefore,this study presents an innovative bearing fault diagnosis approach predicated on Parameter⁃Optimized Symplectic Geometry Mode Decomposition(POSGMD)and Improved Convolutional Neural Network(ICNN).Firstly,assisted by the relative entropy⁃based adaptive selection of embedding dimension,a POSGMD is presented to adaptively decompose the collected bearing vibration signals into various Symplectic Geometry Components(SGC),which can solve the problem of manual selection of the embedding dimension in the raw Symplectic Geometry Mode Decomposition(SGMD).Meanwhile,the signal reconstruction on the decomposed SGC is conducted based on kurtosis⁃weighted principle to obtain the reconstructed signals.Subsequently,the Continuous Wavelet Transform(CWT)of the reconstructed signals is calculated to generate the corresponding time⁃frequency images as sample set.Finally,an ICNN is introduced for model training and automatic recognition of bearing faults.Two case studies are used to validate the presented methods efficacy.Comparing the presented method with traditional fault diagnosis methods,experimental results show that it can achieve greater identification accuracy and superior anti⁃noise resilience.This work provides a practical and effective solution for fault diagnosis in wind turbine bearings,contributing to the timely detection of faults and the reliable operation of wind turbines or other rotational machinery in industrial applications.

文摘Objective To systematically characterize the developmental trajectory and interdisciplinary integration of intelligent diagnosis in traditional Chinese medicine(TCM)through quantitative topic evolution analysis,we addressed the fragmentation of existing research and clarified the long-term research structure and evolutionary patterns of the field.Methods A topic evolution analysis was performed on Chinese-language literature pertaining to intelligent diagnosis in TCM.Publications were retrieved from the China National Knowledge Infrastructure(CNKI),Wanfang Data,and China Science and Technology Journal Database(VIP),covering the period from database inception to July 3,2025.A hybrid segmentation approach,based on cumulative publication growth trends and inflection point detection,was applied to divide the research timeline into distinct stages.Subsequently,the latent Dirichlet allocation(LDA)model was used to extract research topics,followed by alignment and evolutionary analysis of topics across different stages.Results A total of 3919 publications published between 2003 and 2025 were included,and the research trajectory was divided into five stages based on data-driven breakpoint detection.The field exhibited a clear evolutionary shift from early rule-based systems and tonguepulse image and signal analysis(2006–2010),to machine-learning-based syndrome and prescription modeling(2011–2015),followed by deep-learning-driven pattern recognition and formula association(2016–2020).Since 2021,research has increasingly emphasized knowledge-graph construction,multimodal integration,and intelligent clinical decision-support systems,with recent studies(2024–2025)showing the emergence of large language models and agent-based diagnostic frameworks.Topic evolution analysis further revealed sustained cross-stage continuity in syndrome modeling and prescription association analysis,alongside the progressive consolidation of integrated intelligent diagnostic platforms.Conclusion By identifying key technological transitions and persistent core research themes,our findings offer a structured reference framework for the design of intelligent diagnostic systems,the construction of knowledge-driven clinical decision-support tools,and the alignment of AI models with TCM diagnostic logic.Importantly,the stage-based evolutionary insights derived from this analysis can inform future methodological choices,improve model interpretability and clinical applicability,and support the translation of intelligent TCM diagnosis from experimental research to real-world clinical practice.

文摘Rice is one of the most important staple crops globally.Rice plant diseases can severely reduce crop yields and,in extreme cases,lead to total production loss.Early diagnosis enables timely intervention,mitigates disease severity,supports effective treatment strategies,and reduces reliance on excessive pesticide use.Traditional machine learning approaches have been applied for automated rice disease diagnosis;however,these methods depend heavily on manual image preprocessing and handcrafted feature extraction,which are labor-intensive and time-consuming and often require domain expertise.Recently,end-to-end deep learning(DL) models have been introduced for this task,but they often lack robustness and generalizability across diverse datasets.To address these limitations,we propose a novel end-toend training framework for convolutional neural network(CNN) and attention-based model ensembles(E2ETCA).This framework integrates features from two state-of-the-art(SOTA) CNN models,Inception V3 and DenseNet-201,and an attention-based vision transformer(ViT) model.The fused features are passed through an additional fully connected layer with softmax activation for final classification.The entire process is trained end-to-end,enhancing its suitability for realworld deployment.Furthermore,we extract and analyze the learned features using a support vector machine(SVM),a traditional machine learning classifier,to provide comparative insights.We evaluate the proposed E2ETCA framework on three publicly available datasets,the Mendeley Rice Leaf Disease Image Samples dataset,the Kaggle Rice Diseases Image dataset,the Bangladesh Rice Research Institute dataset,and a combined version of all three.Using standard evaluation metrics(accuracy,precision,recall,and F1-score),our framework demonstrates superior performance compared to existing SOTA methods in rice disease diagnosis,with potential applicability to other agricultural disease detection tasks.
文摘Distribution transformers play a vital role in power distribution systems,and their reliable operation is crucial for grid stability.This study presents a simulation-based framework for active fault diagnosis and early warning of distribution transformers,integrating Sample Ensemble Learning(SEL)with a Self-Optimizing Support Vector Machine(SO-SVM).The SEL technique enhances data diversity and mitigates class imbalance,while SO-SVM adaptively tunes its hyperparameters to improve classification accuracy.A comprehensive transformer model was developed in MATLAB/Simulink to simulate diverse fault scenarios,including inter-turn winding faults,core saturation,and thermal aging.Feature vectors were extracted from voltage,current,and temperature measurements to train and validate the proposed hybrid model.Quantitative analysis shows that the SEL–SO-SVM framework achieves a classification accuracy of 97.8%,a precision of 96.5%,and an F1-score of 97.2%.Beyond classification,the model effectively identified incipient faults,providing an early warning lead time of up to 2.5 s before significant deviations in operational parameters.This predictive capability underscores its potential for preventing catastrophic transformer failures and enabling timely maintenance actions.The proposed approach demonstrates strong applicability for enhancing the reliability and operational safety of distribution transformers in simulated environments,offering a promising foundation for future real-time and field-level implementations.

文摘Traditional data-driven fault diagnosis methods depend on expert experience to manually extract effective fault features of signals,which has certain limitations.Conversely,deep learning techniques have gained prominence as a central focus of research in the field of fault diagnosis by strong fault feature extraction ability and end-to-end fault diagnosis efficiency.Recently,utilizing the respective advantages of convolution neural network(CNN)and Transformer in local and global feature extraction,research on cooperating the two have demonstrated promise in the field of fault diagnosis.However,the cross-channel convolution mechanism in CNN and the self-attention calculations in Transformer contribute to excessive complexity in the cooperative model.This complexity results in high computational costs and limited industrial applicability.To tackle the above challenges,this paper proposes a lightweight CNN-Transformer named as SEFormer for rotating machinery fault diagnosis.First,a separable multiscale depthwise convolution block is designed to extract and integrate multiscale feature information from different channel dimensions of vibration signals.Then,an efficient self-attention block is developed to capture critical fine-grained features of the signal from a global perspective.Finally,experimental results on the planetary gearbox dataset and themotor roller bearing dataset prove that the proposed framework can balance the advantages of robustness,generalization and lightweight compared to recent state-of-the-art fault diagnosis models based on CNN and Transformer.This study presents a feasible strategy for developing a lightweight rotating machinery fault diagnosis framework aimed at economical deployment.
文摘Challenges in the diagnosis and treatment of Parkinson’s disease:Parkinson’s disease(PD)is an increasingly prevalent neurodegenerative disease,at first sight primarily characterized by motor symptoms,although non-motor symptoms also constitute a major part of the overall phenotype.Clinically,this disease cannot be diagnosed reliably until a large part of the vulnerable dopaminergic neurons has been irretrievably lost,and the disease progresses inexorably.New biological criteria for PD have been proposed recently and might eventually improve early diagnosis,but they require further validation,and their use will initially be restricted to a research environment(Darweesh et al.,2024).
