  • Patent number: 11880750
    Abstract: A method of detecting deviation from an operational state of a rotational device includes receiving, from one or more sensor devices coupled to the rotational device, frequency domain data indicative of vibration data sensed during a sensing period. The method also includes processing the frequency domain data using a trained anomaly detection model to generate an anomaly score for the sensing period and processing the anomaly score using an alert generation model to determine whether to generate an alert.

  • Patent number: 11853893
    Abstract: A method includes generating, by a processor of a computing device, a first plurality of models (including a first number of models) based on a genetic algorithm and corresponding to a first epoch of the genetic algorithm. The method includes determining whether to modify an epoch size for the genetic algorithm during a second epoch of the genetic algorithm based on a convergence metric associated with at least one epoch that is prior to the second epoch. The second epoch is subsequent to the first epoch. The method further includes, based on determining to modify the epoch size, generating a second plurality of models (including a second number of models that is different than the first number) based on the genetic algorithm and corresponding to the second epoch. Each model of the first plurality of models and the second plurality of models includes data representative of neural networks.

  • Patent number: 11610131
    Abstract: A method includes determining, by a processor of a computing device, a subset of models included in a plurality of models generated based on a genetic algorithm and corresponds to a first epoch of the genetic algorithm. Each of the plurality of models includes data representative of a neural network. The method includes aggregating the subset of models to generate an ensembler. The ensembler, when executed on an input, provides at least a portion of the input to each model of the subset of models to generate a plurality of intermediate outputs. An ensembler output of the ensembler is based on the plurality of intermediate outputs. The method further includes executing the ensembler on input data to determine the ensembler output.

  • Publication number: 20220092477
    Abstract: A method of detecting deviation from an operational state of a device includes obtaining preprocessed data corresponding to data sensed by one or more sensor devices coupled to the device, where obtaining the preprocessed data includes applying a transform to the data sensed by the one or more sensor devices to generate a set of features in a frequency domain. The method also includes processing the preprocessed data using a trained anomaly detection model to generate an anomaly score. The method also includes processing the anomaly score using an alert generation model to determine whether to generate an alert.

  • Publication number: 20210390416
    Abstract: A method includes generating, by a processor of a computing device, an output set of models corresponding to a first epoch of a genetic algorithm and based on an input set of models of the first epoch. The input set and the output set includes data representative of a neural network. The method includes determining a particular model of the output set based on a fitness function. A first topological parameter of a first model of the input set is modified to generate the particular model of the output set. The method includes modifying a probability that the first topological parameter is to be changed by a genetic operation during a second epoch of the genetic algorithm that is subsequent to the first epoch. The method includes generating a second output set of models corresponding to the second epoch and based on the output set and the modified probability.
