Abstract

A self-supervised classification algorithm is proposed for detecting and isolating sensor faults of health monitoring devices. This is achieved by automatically extracting information from failure investigations. This approach uses (i) failure reports for extracting comprehensive failure labels; (ii) recorded data of a faulty monitoring device and the information of the failure type for selecting fault-sensitive features. The features-label pairs are then used to train a classification algorithm, so that when a new set of measurements becomes available, the algorithm is capable of identifying with a high accuracy one of the possible failure types included in the training data set. The proposed approach is successfully applied to the failure investigations conducted on a low-cost wearable device, displaying similar challenges encountered in SHM.
