Improved Fault Diagnosis in Hydraulic Systems with Gated Convolutional Autoencoder and Partially Simulated Data.

This paper examines the effectiveness of neural network algorithms for hydraulic system fault detection and a novel neural network architecture is suggested. The proposed gated convolutional autoencoder was trained on a simulated training set augmented with just 0.2% data from the real test bench, dramatically reducing the time needed to spend with the actual hardware to build a high-quality fault detection model.
