Abstract
This article proposes the deployment of adaptive boosting (AdaBoost) for combining damage feature decisions and improving the detection accuracy of structural health monitoring algorithms. In structural health monitoring applications, damage-sensitive features are combined with classifiers to define decision boundaries and provide information about the structural state. Boosting algorithms combine multiple classifiers aiming at the improvement of their performance. In this study, AdaBoost is deployed on the realizations of a modular structural health monitoring framework, which consists of three tiers: data normalization based on environmental and operational conditions; extraction of damage features, also referred to as condition parameters; and hypothesis testing. Each condition parameter–hypothesis testing pair composes a classifier which is used in AdaBoost as a weak classifier. The integration of AdaBoost with the structural health monitoring framework is validated using experimental data of a 3-kW wind turbine located at the Los Alamos National Laboratory and data generated from a mechanical model of the same structure. The AdaBoost classifier is evaluated with respect to the error rate as well as the true positive and false positive rates, which are typically used in receiver operating characteristic curves. The AdaBoost classifier outperforms the framework classifiers in many cases, improving drastically the detection performance. However, it is shown that the boosting performance depends on the relative location of the condition parameter values on the condition parameter space. The overlaps between the condition parameter values to be combined are quantified using the Bhattacharyya coefficient, which provides a metric for assessing the boosting potential. Finally, omitting condition parameter values corresponding to specific environmental and operational conditions from the boosting process is proposed for obtaining optimum boosting results.
