PGUDA: Pressure-Guided Unsupervised Domain Adaptation with Cross-Modal Knowledge Distillation for sEMG-Based Gesture Recognition

Surface electromyography (sEMG)-based gesture recognition has emerged as a promising technology for natural human-computer interaction. However, its practical deployment remains challenging due to severe performance degradation caused by feature distribution discrepancies across different subjects and recording sessions. Although domain adaptation (DA) techniques are commonly employed to mitigate such discrepancies, conventional methods often struggle to effectively aligning sEMG features, primarily due to their inherent stochasticity and the scarcity of labeled data. To address these limitations, this paper proposes a novel Pressure-Guided Unsupervised Domain Adaptation (PGUDA) framework, which leverages the robustness and stability of pressure signals to introduce a cross-modal knowledge distillation strategy that transfers consistent physical semantics across modalities. Specifically, a teacher network trained on pressure signals guides an sEMG student network on unlabeled target domains, thereby regularizing the representation learning process with transferable and modality-invariant knowledge. Extensive experiments conducted on a self-collected multimodal dataset involving eleven subjects validate the effectiveness of the proposed PGUDA framework. The results demonstrate that our proposed PGUDA achieves leading performance in both cross-subject and cross-session classification tasks, achieving average accuracies of 58.08% and substantially outperforming existing DA approaches. Notably, PGUDA exhibits remarkable label efficiency: it attains classification accuracy comparable to fully supervised benchmarks while requiring only 5% of labeled data for teacher network training. This framework offers a robust and data-efficient solution that can significantly reduce the calibration burden in practical sEMG-based gesture recognition systems.

Classifier-guided neural blind deconvolution: a physics-informed denoising module for bearing fault diagnosis under heavy noise

Blind deconvolution (BD) has been demonstrated as an efficacious approach for extracting bearing fault-specific features from vibration signals under strong background noise. Despite BD's desirable feature in adaptability and mathematical interpretability, a significant challenge persists: How to effectively integrate BD with fault-diagnosing classifiers? This issue arises because the traditional BD method is solely designed for feature extraction with its own optimizer and objective function. When BD is combined with downstream deep learning classifiers, the different learning objectives will be in conflict. To address this problem, this paper introduces classifier-guided BD (ClassBD) for joint learning of BD-based feature extraction and deep learning-based fault classification. Firstly, we present a time and frequency neural BD that employs neural networks to implement conventional BD, thereby facilitating the seamless integration of BD and the deep learning classifier for co-optimization of model parameters. Subsequently, we develop a unified framework to use a deep learning classifier to guide the learning of BD filters. In addition, we devise a physics-informed loss function composed of kurtosis, $l_2/l_4$ norm, and a cross-entropy loss to jointly optimize the BD filters and deep learning classifier. Consequently, the fault labels provide useful information to direct BD to extract features that distinguish classes amidst strong noise. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first of its kind that BD is successfully applied to bearing fault diagnosis. Experimental results from three datasets demonstrate that ClassBD outperforms other state-of-the-art methods under noisy conditions.

EEG-DG: A Multi-Source Domain Generalization Framework for Motor Imagery EEG Classification

Motor imagery EEG classification plays a crucial role in non-invasive Brain-Computer Interface (BCI) research. However, the classification is affected by the non-stationarity and individual variations of EEG signals. Simply pooling EEG data with different statistical distributions to train a classification model can severely degrade the generalization performance. To address this issue, the existing methods primarily focus on domain adaptation, which requires access to the target data during training. This is unrealistic in many EEG application scenarios. In this paper, we propose a novel multi-source domain generalization framework called EEG-DG, which leverages multiple source domains with different statistical distributions to build generalizable models on unseen target EEG data. We optimize both the marginal and conditional distributions to ensure the stability of the joint distribution across source domains and extend it to a multi-source domain generalization framework to achieve domain-invariant feature representation, thereby alleviating calibration efforts. Systematic experiments on a simulative dataset and BCI competition datasets IV-2a and IV-2b demonstrate the superiority of our proposed EEG-DG over state-of-the-art methods. Specifically, EEG-DG achieves an average classification accuracy/kappa value of 81.79%/0.7572 and 87.12%/0.7424 on datasets IV-2a and IV-2b, respectively, which even outperforms some domain adaptation methods.

A class-weighted supervised contrastive learning long-tailed bearing fault diagnosis approach using quadratic neural network

Deep learning has achieved remarkable success in bearing fault diagnosis. However, its performance oftentimes deteriorates when dealing with highly imbalanced or long-tailed data, while such cases are prevalent in industrial settings because fault is a rare event that occurs with an extremely low probability. Conventional data augmentation methods face fundamental limitations due to the scarcity of samples pertaining to the minority class. In this paper, we propose a supervised contrastive learning approach with a class-aware loss function to enhance the feature extraction capability of neural networks for fault diagnosis. The developed class-weighted contrastive learning quadratic network (CCQNet) consists of a quadratic convolutional residual network backbone, a contrastive learning branch utilizing a class-weighted contrastive loss, and a classifier branch employing logit-adjusted cross-entropy loss. By utilizing class-weighted contrastive loss and logit-adjusted cross-entropy loss, our approach encourages equidistant representation of class features, thereby inducing equal attention on all the classes. We further analyze the superior feature extraction ability of quadratic network by establishing the connection between quadratic neurons and autocorrelation in signal processing. Experimental results on public and proprietary datasets are used to validate the effectiveness of CCQNet, and computational results reveal that CCQNet outperforms SOTA methods in handling extremely imbalanced data substantially.

BearingPGA-Net: A Lightweight and Deployable Bearing Fault Diagnosis Network via Decoupled Knowledge Distillation and FPGA Acceleration

Deep learning has achieved remarkable success in the field of bearing fault diagnosis. However, this success comes with larger models and more complex computations, which cannot be transferred into industrial fields requiring models to be of high speed, strong portability, and low power consumption. In this paper, we propose a lightweight and deployable model for bearing fault diagnosis, referred to as BearingPGA-Net, to address these challenges. Firstly, aided by a well-trained large model, we train BearingPGA-Net via decoupled knowledge distillation. Despite its small size, our model demonstrates excellent fault diagnosis performance compared to other lightweight state-of-the-art methods. Secondly, we design an FPGA acceleration scheme for BearingPGA-Net using Verilog. This scheme involves the customized quantization and designing programmable logic gates for each layer of BearingPGA-Net on the FPGA, with an emphasis on parallel computing and module reuse to enhance the computational speed. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first instance of deploying a CNN-based bearing fault diagnosis model on an FPGA. Experimental results reveal that our deployment scheme achieves over 200 times faster diagnosis speed compared to CPU, while achieving a lower-than-0.4\% performance drop in terms of F1, Recall, and Precision score on our independently-collected bearing dataset.

Attention-embedded Quadratic Network (Qttention) for Effective and Interpretable Bearing Fault Diagnosis

Bearing fault diagnosis is of great importance to decrease the damage risk of rotating machines and further improve economic profits. Recently, machine learning, represented by deep learning, has made great progress in bearing fault diagnosis. However, applying deep learning to such a task still faces a major problem. A deep network is notoriously a black box. It is difficult to know how a model classifies faulty signals from the normal and the physics principle behind the classification. To solve the interpretability issue, first, we prototype a convolutional network with recently-invented quadratic neurons. This quadratic neuron empowered network can qualify the noisy bearing data due to the strong feature representation ability of quadratic neurons. Moreover, we independently derive the attention mechanism from a quadratic neuron, referred to as qttention, by factorizing the learned quadratic function in analogue to the attention, making the model with quadratic neurons inherently interpretable. Experiments on the public and our datasets demonstrate that the proposed network can facilitate effective and interpretable bearing fault diagnosis.

Quadratic Neuron-empowered Heterogeneous Autoencoder for Unsupervised Anomaly Detection

Inspired by the complexity and diversity of biological neurons, a quadratic neuron is proposed to replace the inner product in the current neuron with a simplified quadratic function. Employing such a novel type of neurons offers a new perspective on developing deep learning. When analyzing quadratic neurons, we find that there exists a function such that a heterogeneous network can approximate it well with a polynomial number of neurons but a purely conventional or quadratic network needs an exponential number of neurons to achieve the same level of error. Encouraged by this inspiring theoretical result on heterogeneous networks, we directly integrate conventional and quadratic neurons in an autoencoder to make a new type of heterogeneous autoencoders. To our best knowledge, it is the first heterogeneous autoencoder that is made of different types of neurons. Next, we apply the proposed heterogeneous autoencoder to unsupervised anomaly detection for tabular data and bearing fault signals. The anomaly detection faces difficulties such as data unknownness, anomaly feature heterogeneity, and feature unnoticeability, which is suitable for the proposed heterogeneous autoencoder. Its high feature representation ability can characterize a variety of anomaly data (heterogeneity), discriminate the anomaly from the normal (unnoticeability), and accurately learn the distribution of normal samples (unknownness). Experiments show that heterogeneous autoencoders perform competitively compared to other state-of-the-art models.

Space Alternating Variational Estimation Based Sparse Bayesian Learning for Complex-value Sparse Signal Recovery Using Adaptive Laplace Priors

Due to its self-regularizing nature and its ability to quantify uncertainty, the Bayesian approach has achieved excellent recovery performance across a wide range of sparse signal recovery applications. However, most existing methods are based on the real-value signal model, with the complex-value signal model rarely considered. Motivated by the adaptive least absolute shrinkage and selection operator (LASSO) and the sparse Bayesian learning (SBL) framework, a hierarchical model with adaptive Laplace priors is proposed in this paper for recovery of complex sparse signals. Moreover, the space alternating approach is integrated into the algorithm to reduce the computational complexity of the proposed method. In experiments, the proposed algorithm is studied for complex Gaussian random dictionaries and different types of complex signals. These experiments show that the proposed algorithm offers better recovery performance for different types of complex signals than state-of-the-art methods.
