This paper investigates weak fault feature extraction in AUV thrusters under multi-input signal conditions. Conventional methods often rely on insufficient input signals, leading to a non-monotonic mapping between fault features and fault severity. This, in turn, makes accurate fault severity identification infeasible. To overcome this limitation, this paper increases the number of input signals by utilizing all available meas...

Variational Mode Decomposition (VMD) has typically been used in weak fault feature extraction in recent years. The problem analyzed in this study is weak fault feature extraction and the enhancement of AUV thrusters based on Artificial Rabbits Optimization (ARO) and VMD. First, we introduce ARO to solve the problem of long-running times when using VMD for weak fault feature extraction. Then, we propose a VMD denoising method b...
