Abstract

Vibration sensors are prone to bias, drift, and other failures. To avoid misjudgments in state monitoring systems and potential safety accidents caused by vibration sensor failures, it is significant to diagnose the faults of vibration sensors. Existing methods for vibration sensor fault diagnosis are primarily based on Deep Learning, but Extreme Gradient Boosting stands out due to its excellent interpretability, and compared to other ensemble learning algorithms, it boasts superior accuracy and efficiency. Therefore, a vibration sensor fault diagnosis method based on Extreme Gradient Boosting is proposed to diagnose seven common types of faults in vibration sensors. To prevent the model from being overwhelmed by simple negative cases during training, a new loss function named Triage Loss is designed to improve the classifier’s performance. The vibration sensor fault diagnosis has confirmed the efficacy and practicality of the suggested approach. The experimental results indicate that the training of the model done using Triage Loss outperforms the training model done using the default loss function, with a maximum improvement of 5.4% accuracy, 5.45% in the F1-score, and 9.87% in the mean Average Precision under different fault rates.
