description Ensuring operational reliability in machinery requires accurate fault detection. While time-domain vibration pulsation signals are intuitive for pattern recognition and feature extraction, downsampling can reduce analytical complexity, but may result in low-precision data, affecting fault detection performance. To address this, we propose time–frequency feature fusion, combining information from both the time and frequency domains for fault detection. Our approach transforms vibrational pulse data into instantaneous revolutions per minute (RPM) and employs statistical analysis for the time-domain features. For the frequency-domain features, we use the combined method of empirical mode decomposition and independent component analysis (EMD-ICA), along with the Wigner bispectrum method to capture the nonlinear characteristics and phase conjugation. Using a deep neural network (DNN), we classify the anomaly states, demonstrating the effectiveness and versatility of our approach in detecting anomalies and improving diagnostic precision. Compared to using time or frequency features alone, our time–frequency feature fusion model achieves higher accuracy, with 100% accuracy at lower downsampling rates and 96.3% accuracy at a downsampling rate of 100×.
