Description:
Self-Organizing Maps (SOM) is an excellent method of analyzingmultidimensional data. The SOM based classification is attractive, due to itsunsupervised learning and topology preserving properties. In this paper, theperformance of the self-organizing methods is investigated in induction motorrotor fault detection and severity evaluation. The SOM is based on motor currentsignature analysis (MCSA). The agglomerative hierarchical algorithms using theWard’s method is applied to automatically ...
