description Among deep learning methods, convolutional neural networks (CNNs) are able to extract features automatically and have increasingly been used in intelligent fault diagnosis studies. However, studies seldomly concentrate on the weakness associated with a highly imbalanced distribution of fault types due to different failure rates and when multiple faults are easily confused with single faults. To solve these problems, this paper developed a stochastic discrete-time series deep convolutional neural network (SDCNN) method based on random oversampling along with a progressive method with multiple SDCNNs to improve the diagnosis performance. To assess the developed method, datasets from three avionics 24-pulse auto-transformer rectifier units (ATRUs), which are secondary electric power supplies in aircraft, were analyzed and compared with other CNN methods.
