Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the field of fault diagnosis technology, and in particular to a fault diagnosis method, system, device and medium based on multimodal information fusion. Background Technology

[0002] Fault diagnosis is a key technology for ensuring the safe operation of intelligent devices. Its core lies in identifying potential or existing faults in the device through data analysis. Traditional methods usually rely on single-modal data (such as vibration signals or image data), but since device faults often exhibit multi-dimensional characteristics (such as structural deformation, abnormal vibration, etc.), the limitations of single-modal data lead to low diagnostic accuracy and poor robustness.

[0003] In recent years, multimodal information fusion technology has received widespread attention in the field of fault diagnosis. For example, weighted evidence theory can handle data uncertainty, but its support for the aggregation of multi-source heterogeneous data (such as point clouds and RGB images) is insufficient, affecting diagnostic accuracy. Although federated learning can achieve data fusion under privacy protection, its high computational complexity makes it difficult to meet real-time requirements. In addition, existing technologies mostly focus on a single stage (such as data quality assessment or model building), resulting in low information utilization and affecting diagnostic accuracy.

[0004] Currently, fault diagnosis using multimodal information fusion in related technologies suffers from low accuracy, and no effective solution has yet been proposed. Summary of the Invention

[0005] This application provides a fault diagnosis method, system, device, and medium based on multimodal information fusion, to at least address the problem of low accuracy in fault diagnosis based on multimodal information fusion in related technologies.

[0006] In a first aspect, embodiments of this application provide a fault diagnosis method based on multimodal information fusion, the method comprising:

[0022] Based on the interaction weights, a cross-modal association model is adopted to generate a point cloud and image feature association matrix on the local client of federated learning.

[0023] By using the parameter aggregation mechanism of federated learning, the association matrices of multiple clients are merged on the server side to construct a panoramic information architecture model.

[0024] In one embodiment, the step of fusing the association matrices of multiple clients on the server side through the parameter aggregation mechanism of federated learning to construct a panoramic information architecture model includes:

[0025] Based on the data quality scores of each client, aggregation weights are assigned to the correlation matrix, wherein the data quality scores are obtained through the product of the signal-to-noise ratio and the resolution coefficient.

[0026] The association matrix after assigning aggregation weights is mapped to a three-dimensional topological structure of a unified semantic space using the OWL semantic model.

[0027] Based on the credibility weight of vibration characteristics, a spectral feature layer is embedded in the three-dimensional topology to construct a panoramic information framework model.

[0028] In one embodiment, the panoramic information framework model is based on multi-source heterogeneous data aggregation technology, integrating point cloud 3D structure and image color information to obtain a unified information framework.

[0032] By using a Bayesian inference model, and combining the initial probability with the confidence level of real-time sensor data, the fault probability output is corrected.

[0033] When the output failure probability exceeds the preset probability threshold, the failure type is determined.

[0034] Secondly, embodiments of this application provide a fault diagnosis system based on multimodal information fusion. The system includes: an extraction module, a credibility weighting module, a panoramic information architecture model module, and a fault diagnosis module, wherein:

[0035] The extraction module is used to extract features from pre-collected multi-source heterogeneous data to obtain point cloud features, image features, and vibration features;

[0057] In summary, this application provides a fault diagnosis method, system, device, and medium based on multimodal information fusion. It extracts features from pre-collected multi-source heterogeneous data to obtain point cloud features, image features, and vibration features, solving the problem of incomplete information in single-modal data and providing a multi-dimensional feature foundation for subsequent fusion. Through weighted evidence theory, basic probability allocation functions are calculated for point cloud features, image features, and vibration features, generating corresponding feature confidence weights. This quantifies the uncertainty of different modal data and effectively reduces interference from noise and abnormal data. Based on the federated learning framework, point cloud features and image features are interactively fused at the feature layer, protecting data privacy while achieving deep cross-modal correlation. This overcomes the difficulty of heterogeneous data fusion in traditional methods. Based on the confidence weights, a panoramic information architecture model is constructed, integrating three-dimensional structure, two-dimensional texture, and temporal vibration information to form a unified high-precision diagnostic framework. Fault prediction and diagnosis are performed based on the panoramic information architecture model, outputting the fault type and its corresponding probability. The synergistic effect of the above features improves the accuracy of fault diagnosis while ensuring real-time performance and reliability. This addresses the issue of low accuracy in fault diagnosis using multimodal information fusion in related technologies.

[0058] In one embodiment, step S101 involves extracting features from pre-collected multi-source heterogeneous data to obtain point cloud features, image features, and vibration features. Specifically, this includes:

[0059] The point cloud data is grouped according to a preset sampling threshold, and point cloud features are extracted through the PointNet network.

[0060] Image features are extracted from RGB image data using the YOLOv3 algorithm;

[0061] Perform a Fourier transform operation on the sensor vibration data to extract frequency domain features as vibration features.

[0062] Optionally, the raw point cloud data (1024×1024 resolution) acquired by LiDAR is first spatially grouped. A sampling threshold of 0.3-0.6 meters is set to divide adjacent point clouds into local clusters. The 3D geometric features (such as curvature and normal vectors) of each cluster are extracted using the PointNet network and aggregated into global point cloud features. Secondly, for the RGB image data (1920×1080 resolution), the YOLOv3 algorithm is used to extract multi-scale texture features (such as edges and color histograms) in the convolutional layer, and local and global information are integrated through spatial pyramid pooling. Finally, for the sensor vibration data (1000Hz sampling rate), the time-domain signal is converted into a frequency-domain energy spectrum using Fast Fourier Transform (FFT), and the dominant frequency amplitude and harmonic components are extracted as vibration features. All feature extraction processes are executed in parallel under GPU acceleration to ensure real-time performance.

[0063] Step S101 reduces computational complexity through spatial grouping while preserving key 3D structural information, avoiding noise interference, and improving the geometric accuracy of subsequent fusion. YOLOv3 multi-scale extraction balances local details and global context, making image features robust to occlusion and illumination changes. Environmental noise is removed, focusing on the inherent frequency characteristics of the equipment, thus enhancing the physical correlation between vibration signals and mechanical faults (such as bearing wear).

[0064] In one embodiment, before step S101, which involves extracting features from pre-collected multi-source heterogeneous data to obtain point cloud features, image features, and vibration features, the method further includes:

[0065] Real-time acquisition of point cloud data (1024x1024 resolution), RGB images (1920x1080 resolution), and vibration signals (1000Hz sampling rate). An RGB camera and vibration sensor are connected to a computing unit (such as a GPU server). The software is implemented in Python, using the PyTorch framework to build a neural network.

[0066] Specifically, point cloud data acquisition utilizes a LiDAR sensor to acquire 3D point clouds of the device at a resolution of 1024×1024. Motion distortion is eliminated through spatial calibration, and the data is transmitted to a GPU server. RGB image capture is performed synchronously using an industrial-grade RGB camera (1920×1080 resolution, 30fps) to capture images of the device surface. OpenCV is used for illumination equalization and geometric correction. Vibration signal sampling is performed synchronously using a triaxial vibration sensor (1000Hz sampling rate, ±50g range). Digital signals are generated through anti-aliasing filtering and ADC conversion, and uploaded in real-time via TCP / IP protocol. This provides the foundation for subsequent feature fusion.

[0067] In one embodiment, step S102 involves calculating a basic probability assignment function for point cloud features, image features, and vibration features using weighted evidence theory to generate the corresponding feature confidence weights. Specifically, this includes:

[0068] Based on the historical fault dataset, initial probability values ​​are assigned to point cloud features, image features, and vibration features respectively;

[0069] The initial probability values ​​of point cloud features and vibration features are fused by pre-defined combination rules.

[0070] The probability allocation weights of image features are adjusted based on the conflict factor K value;

[0071] Based on the initial probability values ​​and probability allocation weights, the credibility weights of each modality feature are generated.

[0072] Optionally, initial probability values ​​are first assigned to each modal feature based on a historical fault dataset (containing multiple sets of labeled samples). For point cloud features, probabilities are assigned based on their 3D structural integrity score (e.g., 0.7 for a complete structure); for vibration features, weights are assigned based on the matching degree of spectral energy distribution (e.g., 0.8 for a matching fundamental frequency amplitude); and for image features, probabilities are initialized based on texture anomaly detection results (e.g., 0.9 for a detected crack). Subsequently, the probability values ​​of point cloud and vibration features are fused using the Dempster combination rule to calculate their joint confidence, and a conflict factor K (K = 1 - Σ(evidence intersection)) is introduced to quantify the degree of contradiction between modalities. When K > 0.5, the image feature weights are dynamically attenuated (e.g., image weight × 0.8 when K = 0.6). The final output is the confidence weight.

[0073] Step S102 improves the accuracy of initial weight allocation by establishing a probability mapping relationship through a large number of fault samples, and uses weighted evidence theory to calculate the basic probability allocation function to integrate uncertainty.

[0074] In one embodiment, step S103 involves fusing point cloud features and image features at the feature layer according to the federated learning framework, and constructing a panoramic information architecture model based on confidence weights. Specifically, this includes:

[0075] Based on the confidence weight, the interaction weights between point cloud features and image features are assigned through an attention mechanism;

[0076] A cross-modal association model is adopted, and a point cloud and image feature association matrix is ​​generated on the local client of federated learning according to the interaction weights.

[0077] By employing a parameter aggregation mechanism based on federated learning, association matrices from multiple clients are fused on the server side to construct a panoramic information architecture model. Specifically, aggregation weights are assigned to the association matrices based on the data quality scores of each client, where the data quality scores are obtained through the product of the signal-to-noise ratio and the resolution coefficient. The association matrices, after weighting, are mapped into a three-dimensional topological structure within a unified semantic space using the OWL semantic model. Based on the credibility weights of vibration features, a spectral feature layer is embedded in the three-dimensional topological structure to construct the panoramic information architecture model.

[0078] Optionally, based on the confidence weights generated in step S102 (e.g., point cloud weight 0.7, image weight 0.8), the interaction weights (e.g., point cloud → image weight 0.6, image → point cloud weight 0.4) are dynamically calculated through a multi-head attention mechanism to achieve adaptive association of the feature layer.

[0079] Subsequently, on the local clients of the federated learning (such as edge devices in industrial fields), a cross-modal association model (based on the Transformer architecture) is used to map the 3D coordinate features of the point cloud and the 2D texture features of the image into a sparse association matrix (size 1024×1024). After receiving the association matrices uploaded by each client, the server assigns aggregation weights according to the data quality score (formula: signal-to-noise ratio (dB) / 10×resolution coefficient (0-1)) (e.g., client A score 0.9, weight 0.4, client B score 0.7, weight 0.3), and fuses the matrices using the FedAvg algorithm. Finally, the OWL semantic model is used to parse the fused matrix into a 3D topological structure (e.g., device skeleton point cloud plus surface texture map), and a spectral energy layer (FFT amplitude heatmap) is embedded based on vibration feature weights (e.g., 0.75), forming a panoramic model containing geometric, visual, and vibration information.

[0080] Step S103 uses federated learning to share model parameters across multiple devices without sharing data. Deep fusion uses an attention mechanism to interact point cloud and image features in the feature Dempster layer to construct a panoramic model with OWL semantics, achieving multimodal deep fusion under privacy protection and improving the information integrity of the panoramic model.

[0081] In one embodiment, the panoramic information architecture model is based on multi-source heterogeneous data aggregation technology, integrating point cloud 3D structure and image color information to obtain a unified information framework. Specifically, it includes:

[0082] Optionally, using multi-source heterogeneous data aggregation technology, the three-dimensional spatial coordinates of LiDAR point cloud data (1024×1024 resolution) are first spatiotemporally aligned with the pixel-level color information of RGB images (1920×1080 resolution), and a point-to-pixel correspondence is established using a feature descriptor-based matching algorithm. Subsequently, an adaptive weighted fusion algorithm is used to integrate the geometric accuracy of the point cloud with the texture details of the image into a unified semantic three-dimensional mesh model.

[0083] In one embodiment, step S104 involves performing fault prediction and diagnosis based on a panoramic information architecture model, and outputting the fault type and its corresponding probability. Specifically, this includes:

[0084] Based on the multidimensional fusion features of the panoramic information architecture model, temporal fault mode features are extracted through a pre-trained recurrent neural network model;

[0085] Based on the probability distribution of historical fault datasets, calculate the matching degree between the current fused features and each fault type, and generate initial probabilities;

[0086] By using a Bayesian inference model, combining the initial probability with the confidence level of real-time sensor data, the fault probability output is corrected.

[0087] When the output failure probability exceeds the preset probability threshold, the failure type is determined.

[0088] Optionally, the multi-dimensional fusion features (including 3D structure, texture, and spectral information) output from the panoramic information architecture model are first input into a pre-trained RNN model. An LSTM unit is then used to capture the temporal evolution of the equipment state (e.g., the increasing pattern of vibration amplitude over time). Subsequently, based on a probability distribution table constructed from historical fault datasets, the cosine similarity between the current feature and various fault types is calculated to generate initial probabilities (e.g., fault A: 0.75, fault B: 0.20). Next, a Bayesian inference model (prior probability = initial probability, likelihood function = real-time sensor data confidence level) dynamically corrects the probabilities. For example, when the confidence level of newly added vibration sensor data is 0.9, the probability of fault A is updated from 0.75 to 0.82. Finally, the system monitors the probability output. When the probability of any fault type exceeds a 95% threshold (configurable), an alarm is triggered and the specific fault type is marked (e.g., "bearing wear - probability 96%)". In this process, a data-driven RNN model is used to predict faults, and the fusion features are used to output probabilities. Training was performed using data similar to the KITTI dataset, with 1000 iterations and a learning rate of 0.001.

[0089] For example:

[0090] First, it is applied to generator fault diagnosis. Image and vibration data are acquired. After feature extraction, the fusion module calculates weighted evidence, with a probability allocation of fault A: 0.8 and uncertainty: 0.2. The diagnostic module outputs "Abnormal generator vibration," with an accuracy of 96%.

[0091] Secondly, it is applied to industrial equipment. It collects point clouds and images of the equipment, processes them in groups, and then fuses them to construct a panoramic model. Federated learning protects data from multiple devices, diagnoses "structural damage," and achieves real-time performance of 225ms / frame.

[0092] Step S104 improves the diagnostic robustness in complex scenarios and achieves breakthroughs in multimodal diagnostic accuracy by combining spatiotemporal feature collaboration (RNN temporal modeling + panoramic model spatial fusion) and probability calibration (historical data prior distribution + real-time confidence posterior correction).

[0093] In summary, this application provides a fault diagnosis method, system, device, and medium based on multimodal information fusion. It extracts features from pre-collected multi-source heterogeneous data to obtain point cloud features, image features, and vibration features, solving the problem of incomplete information in single-modal data and providing a multi-dimensional feature foundation for subsequent fusion. Through weighted evidence theory, basic probability allocation functions are calculated for point cloud features, image features, and vibration features, generating corresponding feature confidence weights. This quantifies the uncertainty of different modal data and effectively reduces interference from noise and abnormal data. Based on the federated learning framework, point cloud features and image features are interactively fused at the feature layer, protecting data privacy while achieving deep cross-modal correlation. This overcomes the difficulty of heterogeneous data fusion in traditional methods. Based on the confidence weights, a panoramic information architecture model is constructed, integrating three-dimensional structure, two-dimensional texture, and temporal vibration information to form a unified high-precision diagnostic framework. Fault prediction and diagnosis are performed based on the panoramic information architecture model, outputting the fault type and its corresponding probability. The synergistic effect of the above features improves the accuracy of fault diagnosis while ensuring real-time performance and reliability. This addresses the issue of low accuracy in fault diagnosis using multimodal information fusion in related technologies.

[0094] Secondly, embodiments of this application provide a fault diagnosis system based on multimodal information fusion. Figure 2 This is a system architecture block diagram illustrating a multimodal information fusion fault diagnosis system according to an exemplary embodiment. For example... Figure 2 As shown, the system includes: an extraction module 210, a credibility weight module 220, a panoramic information architecture model module 230, and a fault diagnosis module 240, wherein:

[0095] Extraction module 210 is used to extract features from pre-collected multi-source heterogeneous data to obtain point cloud features, image features and vibration features;

[0096] The credibility weight module 220 is used to calculate the basic probability assignment function for point cloud features, image features and vibration features through weighted evidence theory, and generate the credibility weight of the corresponding features.

[0097] The panoramic information architecture model module 230 is used to interactively fuse point cloud features and image features at the feature layer according to the federated learning framework, and to construct a panoramic information architecture model based on the confidence weight.

[0098] The fault diagnosis module 240 is used to predict and diagnose faults based on the panoramic information architecture model, and output the fault type and the corresponding probability.

[0099] In summary, the multimodal information fusion-based fault diagnosis system provided in this application improves the accuracy of fault diagnosis through the synergistic effect of the extraction module 210, the confidence weight module 220, the panoramic information architecture model module 230, and the fault diagnosis module 240, while ensuring real-time performance and reliability. This addresses the problem of low accuracy in multimodal information fusion-based fault diagnosis in related technologies.

[0100] Specifically, feature extraction is performed on pre-collected multi-source heterogeneous data to obtain point cloud features, image features, and vibration features, solving the problem of incomplete information in single-modal data and providing a multi-dimensional feature foundation for subsequent fusion. Using weighted evidence theory, basic probability assignment functions are calculated for point cloud features, image features, and vibration features to generate corresponding feature confidence weights, quantifying the uncertainty of different modal data and effectively reducing the interference of noise and abnormal data.
