Abstract: It is a great challenge to accurately and automatically identify different faults of the key components in rotating machinery. In this paper, a new method called feature fusion deep belief network is proposed for the intelligent fault diagnosis of rolling bearing. Firstly, a deep belief network (DBN) is constructed with several pre-trained restricted Boltzmann machines for feature learning of the raw vibration data. Secondly, locality preserving projection (LPP) is adopted to fuse the deep features to further enhance the quality of the learned deep features. Finally, the fusion deep features are fed into Softmax for automatic and accurate fault diagnosis. The proposed method is applied to analyze the experimental rolling bearing signals, and the results show that the proposed method is more effective than the traditional intelligent diagnosis methods.
