Intelligent fault diagnosis for unbalanced battery data using adversarial domain expansion and enhanced stochastic configuration networks

An accurate and efficient fault diagnosis method for battery systems is crucial to ensuring the safety of battery packs. Addressing the issue of insufficient actual fault data in battery operations, this paper proposes an intelligent fault diagnosis method based on feature-enhanced stochastic configuration networks and adversarial domain expansion of imbalanced battery fault data (AFDEM-FESCN). Firstly, we designed an adversarial fault domain data expansion method (AFDEM). By learning the distribution of fault data through adversarial training, the distribution of sample domains is balanced, thereby reducing model bias. Subsequently, we adjusted the distribution of SCN iterative parameters and added a linear feature layer. This enhances the feature extraction capability of the network through distribution overlay, enabling fault diagnosis. Finally, the effectiveness and feasibility of the proposed method were validated through a practical battery system fault diagnosis case, achieving a diagnostic accuracy of 92.1%. Experimental results demonstrate that the AFDEM-FESCN method exhibits good accuracy in battery system fault diagnosis, providing an effective solution to the challenge of imbalanced data in intelligent fault diagnosis.
