Optimal feature complexity for small-sample bearing fault detection in manufacturing
摘要
Manufacturing environments increasingly demand cost-effective bearing fault detection solutions that balance diagnostic accuracy with implementation practicality. This study investigates optimal feature complexity levels for small-sample bearing condition monitoring using the standardized Paderborn University benchmark dataset. Through systematic evaluation of 15 bearing specimens across three complexity categories, we analyze the performance-cost trade-offs critical for manufacturing deployment. Results demonstrate that moderate-complexity features achieve superior discriminative power, with spectral centroid reaching Cohen’s
