In this paper, a new hybrid intelligent technique is presented based on the improvement in the feature selection method for multi-fault classification. The bearing conditions used in this study include healthy condition, defective inner ring, defective outer ring, and the faulty rolling element at different rotating motor speeds. To form the feature matrix, at first, the vibration signals are decomposed using empirical mode decomposition and wavelet packet decomposition. Then, the time and frequency domain features are extracted from the raw signals and the components are obtained from the signal decomposition. The high-dimensional feature matrix leads to increasing the computational complexity and reducing the efficiency in the classification accuracy of faults. Therefore, in the first stage of the feature selection process, the redundant and unnecessary features are eliminated by the FDAF-score feature selection method and the preselected feature set is formed. The FDAF-score technique is a combination of both F-score and Fisher discriminate analysis (FDA) algorithms. Since there may exist the features that are not susceptible to the presence of faults, the binary particle swarm optimization (BPSO) algorithm and the support vector machine (SVM) are used to select the optimal features from the preselected features. The BPSO algorithm is used to determine the optimal feature set and SVM classifier parameters so that the predictive error of the bearing conditions and the number of selected features are minimized. The results obtained in this paper demonstrate that the selected features are able to differentiate the different bearing conditions at various speeds. Comparing the results of this article with other fault detection methods indicates the ability of the proposed method.
