Measurement-Efficient Few-Shot Vibration Fault Diagnosis via Physics-Informed Self-Supervised Learning and Adaptive Early Stopping

Le résumé fourni par la source

Vibration-based fault diagnosis is widely used for rotating machinery health monitoring, but practical diagnosis is often limited by scarce fault labels and uncertain measurement length. Longer vibration records can improve decision reliability but increase sensing and computational cost, whereas overly short records may yield unreliable predictions under noise and measurement corruptions. This paper studies few-shot fault diagnosis as a measurement-constrained decision task, in which the model identifies the fault class and determines when sufficient vibration evidence has been acquired. We propose a measurement-efficient diagnosis framework that combines prior knowledge from unlabeled healthy signals, physically constrained augmentation of scarce labeled samples, and adaptive early stopping in a shared one-dimensional feature extractor. The framework is evaluated on the UORED-VAFCLS and Paderborn University bearing datasets under 6-, 8-, and 10-shot settings with controlled corruption levels. Results show robust diagnostic performance with fewer acquired vibration windows than with fixed-length inference. In the representative PU-Hard 8-shot setting, the proposed method achieves 80.26% accuracy with an average of 1.2432 acquired windows and reduces the evaluation cost J from 0.3929 to 0.2596 compared with fixed four-window inference. These results indicate that adaptive measurement improves the accuracy-cost trade-off in few-shot vibration diagnosis.
