Automatic feature extraction of time-series applied to fault severity assessment of helical gearbox in stationary and non-stationary speed operation

Signals captured in rotating machines to obtain the status of their components can be considered as a source of massive information. In current methods based on artificial intelligence to fault severity assessment, features are first generated by advanced signal processing techniques. Then feature s...
