Bearing is one of the most important parts of rotating machinery with high failure rate, and its working state directly affects the performance of the entire equipment. Hence, it is of great significance to diagnose bearing faults, which can contribute to guaranteeing running stability and maintenance, thus promoting production efficiency and economic benefits. Usually, the bearing fault features are difficult to extract effectively, which results in low diagnosis performance. To solve the problem, this paper proposes a bearing fault feature extraction method and it establishes a bearing fault diagnosis method that is based on feature fusion. The basic idea of the method is as follows: firstly, the time-frequency feature of the bearing signal is extracted through Wavelet Packet Transform (WPT) to form the time-frequency characteristic matrix of the signal; secondly, the Multi-Weight Singular Value Decomposition (MWSVD) is constructed by singular value contribution rate and entropy weight. The features of the time-frequency feature matrix obtained by WPT are further extracted, and the features that are sensitive to fault in the time-frequency feature matrix are retained while the insensitive features are removed; finally, the extracted feature matrix is used as the input of the Support Vector Machine (SVM) classifier for bearing fault diagnosis. The proposed method is validated by data sets from the time-varying bearing data from the University of Ottawa and Case Western Reserve University Bearing Data Center. The results show that the algorithm can effectively diagnose the bearing under the steady-state and unsteady state. This paper proposes that the algorithm has better fault diagnosis capabilities and feature extraction capabilities when compared with methods that aree based on traditional feature technology.

As one of the most critical issues for target track, $\alpha$ -jerk model is an effective maneuver target track model. Non-Gaussian noises always exist in the track process, which usually lead to inconsistency and divergence of the track filter. A novel Kalman filter is derived and applied on $\alpha$ -jerk tracking model to handle non-Gaussian noise. The weighted least square solution is presented and the standard Kalman filter is deduced firstly. A novel Kalman filter with the weighted least square based on the maximum correntropy criterion is deduced. The robustness of the maximum correntropy criterion is also analyzed with the influence function and compared with the Huber-based filter, and, moreover, the kernel size of Gaussian kernel plays an important role in the filter algorithm. A new adaptive kernel method is proposed in this paper to adjust the parameter in real time. Finally, simulation results indicate the validity and the efficiency of the proposed filter. The comparison study shows that the proposed filter can significantly reduce the noise influence for $\alpha$ -jerk model.

Strap-down inertial navigation system/celestial navigation system (SINS/CNS) integrated navigation is a high precision navigation technique for ballistic missiles. The traditional navigation method has a divergence in the position error. A deeply integrated mode for SINS/CNS navigation system is proposed to improve the navigation accuracy of ballistic missile. The deeply integrated navigation principle is described and the observability of the navigation system is analyzed. The nonlinearity, as well as the large outliers and the Gaussian mixture noises, often exists during the actual navigation process, leading to the divergence phenomenon of the navigation filter. The new nonlinear Kalman filter on the basis of the maximum correntropy theory and unscented transformation, named the maximum correntropy unscented Kalman filter, is deduced, and the computational complexity is analyzed. The unscented transformation is used for restricting the nonlinearity of the system equation, and the maximum correntropy theory is used to deal with the non-Gaussian noises. Finally, numerical simulation illustrates the superiority of the proposed filter compared with the traditional unscented Kalman filter. The comparison results show that the large outliers and the influence of non-Gaussian noises for SINS/CNS deeply integrated navigation is significantly reduced through the proposed filter.

In the realm of prognosticating the remaining useful life (RUL) of pivotal components, such as aircraft engines, a prevalent challenge persists where the available historical life data often proves insufficient. This insufficiency engenders obstacles such as impediments in performance degradation feature extraction, inadequacies in capturing temporal relationships comprehensively, and diminished predictive accuracy. To address this issue, a 1D CNN-GRU prediction model for few-shot conditions is proposed in this paper. In pursuit of more comprehensive data feature extraction and enhanced RUL prognostication precision, the Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) is selected for its capacity to discern high-dimensional features amid the intricate dynamics of the data. Concurrently, the Gated Recurrent Unit (GRU) network is leveraged for its robust capability in extracting temporal features inherent within the data. We combine the two to construct a CNN-GRU hybrid network. Moreover, the integration of data distribution alongside correlation and monotonicity indices is employed to winnow the input of multi-sensor monitoring parameters into the CNN-GRU network. Finally, the engine RULs are predicted by the trained model. In this paper, experiments are conducted on a sub-dataset of the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) C-MAPSS multi-constraint dataset to validate the effectiveness of the method. Experimental results have demonstrated that this method has high accuracy in RUL prediction tasks, which can powerfully demonstrate its effectiveness.

Fault identification for closed-loop control systems is a future trend in the field of fault diagnosis. Due to the inherent feedback adjustment mechanism, a closed-loop control system is generally very robust to external disturbances and internal noises. Closed-loop control systems often encourage faults to propagate inside the systems, which may lead to the consequence that faults amplitude becomes smaller and fault characteristics difference becomes more inapparent. Hence, it has been challenging to achieve fault identification for such systems. Traditional fault identification methods are not particularly designed for closed-loop control systems and thus cannot be applied directly. In this work, a new fault identification method is proposed, which is based on the deep neural network for closed-loop control systems. Firstly, the fault propagation mechanism in closed-loop control systems is theoretically derived, and the influence of fault propagation on system variables is analyzed. Then deep neural network is applied to find fault characteristics difference between different data modes, and a sliding window is used to amplify the fault-to-noise ratio and characteristics difference, with an aim to increase the identification performance. To verify this method, the simulations that are based on a numerical simulation model, the Tennessee industrial system and the satellite attitude control system are conducted. The results show that the proposed method is more feasible and more effective in fault identification for closed-loop control systems compared with traditional data-driven identification methods, including distance-based and angle-based identification methods.
