| Summary: | The predictive performance of the remaining useful life (RUL) estimation model for bearings is of utmost importance, and the setting method of the bearing degradation threshold is crucial for detecting its early degradation point, as it significantly affects the performance of the RUL prediction model. To solve these problems, a bearing RUL prediction method based on early degradation detection and optimized BiLSTM is proposed: an optimized VMD combined with the Pearson correlation coefficient is used to denoise the bearing signal. Afterward, multi-domain features are extracted and evaluated using different metrics. The optimal degradation feature is then selected. Furthermore, KPCA is used to integrate the features and establish the health indicators (HIs) for early degradation detection of bearings using a sliding window method combined with the 3σ (3-sigma) criterion and the quartile method. The RUL prediction model is developed by combining the BiLSTM network with the attention mechanism and by employing the SSA to adaptively update the network parameters. The proposed RUL prediction model is tested on various datasets to evaluate its generalization ability and applicability. The obtained results demonstrate that the proposed denoising method has high performance. The dynamic 3σ-threshold setting method accurately detects the early degradation points of bearings. The proposed RUL prediction model has high performance and fitting capacity, as well as very high generalization ability and applicability, enabling the early prediction of bearing RUL. |
