Journal Paper: Cross-correlation heat-maps synthesis with Walsh-Fourier transformation in articulated robotic systems diagnostics

📝 Admin  🕓 Feb. 14, 2025 💬 Comments 

Our lab has presented research introducing a novel diagnostic framework for articulated robotic systems in the journal Measurement (SCI, JCR Q1, 中科院 2区, IF(2025) = 5.6). The paper, titled “Cross-correlation heat-maps synthesis with Walsh-Fourier transformation in articulated robotic systems diagnostics,” (DOI: 10.1016/j.measurement.2026.120862) addresses the critical challenges of monitoring harmonic drives under nonstationary dynamics and variable speed/load conditions. Real-world robotic vibration signals are notoriously difficult to decipher because practical deployments often lack a priori characteristic fault frequencies and complete operating context, which typically undermines the robustness of traditional vibration-based diagnostics. Existing methods often become unstable across speed variations, making the accurate isolation of mechanical wear a significant hurdle for automated systems.

To overcome these obstacles, we proposed a comprehensive framework known as Cross-correlation Heatmap Synthesis via Walsh–Fourier Transform (CHS-WFT). This method hinges on speed-aware partitioning with frame-level decomposition, together with a joint Walsh–Fourier cross-correlation representation that fuses Fourier’s sensitivity to harmonic content with Walsh’s responsiveness to abrupt, piecewise transients. By revealing inter-signal dependencies obscured in Fourier-only analyses, the framework employs multi-scale energy entropy to quantify irregularity and complexity across scales. Experimental results confirm that this approach achieves higher diagnostic discriminability and stabilized detection with a reduced dependence on labeled data, enabling reliable early-warning fault detection to support condition-based maintenance in articulated robotic systems.

Journal Paper: Vibration-weighted maximum correlated kurtosis deconvolution and latent cyclic pattern discovery for fault diagnosis of high-speed rail bogies

📝 Admin  🕓 Jan. 08, 2025 💬 Comments

Our lab has presented research introducing a novel multi-source vibration demodulation framework in Journal of Sound and Vibration (SCI, JCR Q1, 中科院(工程技术) 2区, IF(2025) = 4.9). The paper, titled “Vibration-weighted maximum correlated kurtosis deconvolution and latent cyclic pattern discovery for fault diagnosis of high-speed rail bogies,” (DOI: 10.1016/j.jsv.2026.119657), addresses critical challenges in ensuring the safety of high-speed rail systems. Real-world bogie vibration signals are notoriously difficult to decipher due to a complex mix of mechanical oscillations, deterministic periodic components, and heavy environmental noise, which often obscure fault features. Traditional diagnosis methods are further hindered by the need for manual hyperparameter tuning, poor performance at low Signal-to-Noise Ratios (SNR), and high computational costs, making efficient and accurate fault isolation a significant hurdle.

To overcome these obstacles, we proposed a comprehensive framework combining an optimized Maximum Correlated Kurtosis Deconvolution (MCKD) with Latent Cyclic Pattern Discovery (LCPD). This method introduces a Vibration Amplitude-based Grading and Weighting Distribution (VAGWD) and spectral-negentropy-driven adaptivity, allowing for automatic filter length determination and enhanced extraction of weak impulsive signatures without empirical tuning. By exploiting envelope-cepstral cues and cyclic spectral coherence, the LCPD module effectively recovers hidden or time-warped periodicities even under compound-fault conditions. Experimental results confirm that this approach achieves higher diagnostic accuracy, greater noise robustness, and improved computational efficiency compared to standard methods like MED and MOMEDA.

Journal Paper: Semi-supervised transfer graph neural representation learning with few-shot adaptation for gearbox diagnostics under extraneous transient noise

📝 Admin  🕓 Dec. 24, 2025 💬 Comments

Our lab has presented research introducing a novel diagnostic framework for industrial gearboxes in Structural Health Monitoring (SCI, JCR Q1, 中科院(工程技术) 2区, IF(2025) = 5.7). The paper, titled “Semi-supervised transfer graph representation learning with few-shot adaptation for gearbox diagnostics under extraneous transient noise,” (DOI: 10.1177/14759217251414344) addresses the pressing challenge of maintaining high diagnostic accuracy in critical mechanical components when faced with extremely sparse labeled datasets and intense extraneous transient noise interference.

The proposed SSTGRL-FSA method integrates a pseudo-label reliability enhancement mechanism based on systematic knowledge transfer with an advanced label transmission strategy and an integrated first-order Markov state probability transition matrix utilizing amplitude-constrained scaling. By exploiting homologous signal patterns and modeling sophisticated temporal dependencies to maintain stable feature scales, the framework significantly enhances diagnostic robustness and generalization capabilities in data-scarce environments, marking an important step forward for reliable industrial gearbox fault diagnosis under challenging operational conditions.

Journal Paper: SSKD: Self-Supervised Knowledge Distillation for reliable remote surface defect detection under wireless transmission attenuation

📝 Admin  🕓 Nov. 25, 2025 💬 Comments

Our Lab has presented research introducing SSKD, a Self-Supervised Knowledge Distillation framework for reliable remote surface defect detection under wireless transmission attenuation, in Engineering Research Express. The paper, titled “SSKD: Self-Supervised Knowledge Distillation for Reliable Remote Surface Defect Detection under Wireless Transmission Attenuation,” (DOI: 10.1088/2631-8695/ae25ba) addresses critical challenges in robust defect inspection when wireless sensor networks (WSNs) degrade image quality through noise, compression artifacts, and packet loss.

SSKD reconstructs attenuated images on the fly without requiring historical paired datasets, enabling flexible deployment in real-world smart manufacturing environments. The framework integrates three key innovations: self-supervised learning decoupled from rigid paired data, cross-domain knowledge transfer that preserves diagnostic accuracy under severe transmission-induced degradation, and autonomous reconstruction that restores defect-salient cues to stabilize downstream detection. Evaluated under diverse wireless transmission conditions, SSKD achieves superior robustness and diagnostic fidelity compared to strong baseline methods, paving the way for reliable, cost-effective remote surface defect inspection using commodity WSN deployments.
