Orthogonal Wavelet Transform-Based Gaussian Mixture Model for Bearing Fault Diagnosis by Weipeng Li, Yan Cao, Lijuan Li, Siyu Hou

“…Orthogonal wavelet transform selects the appropriate orthogonal wavelet function to transform so that the local characteristics of the signal in the time domain and frequency domain can be specifically described and the feature information of the original data can be mastered more effectively. In this study, a diagnostic method based on the Gaussian mixture model (OWTGMM) of orthogonal wavelet transform is proposed, in which orthogonal wavelet transform (OWT) is used to extract each detailed fault signal, the signal peak-to-peak value eigenvector is used as the construction model, and the GMM is used for fault classification. …”
