%X Roller element bearing fault diagnosis is crucial in industry to maintain that the machine is in good condition so that there is no delay of work due to machine breakdown. This paper discusses the use of Extreme Learning Machine (ELM) algorithm to classify bearing faults. The performance of ELM is compared with Back Propagation (BP) algorithm. It was found that the results show that the ELM has smaller training error rate and testing error rate as compared to BP. ELM also required lesser time to train the neural network and at the same time, able to achieve higher accuracy than BP. Overall, the performance of ELM is encouraging. © 2017 IEEE. %K Algorithms; Backpropagation algorithms; Classification (of information); Fault detection; Knowledge acquisition; Manufacture; Robotics, Bearing fault; Bearing fault diagnosis; Extreme learning machine; Machine breakdown; Testing errors; Training error rate, Learning algorithms %O cited By 3; Conference of 3rd IEEE International Symposium in Robotics and Manufacturing Automation, ROMA 2017 ; Conference Date: 19 September 2017 Through 21 September 2017; Conference Code:134001 %J 2017 IEEE 3rd International Symposium in Robotics and Manufacturing Automation, ROMA 2017 %L scholars8040 %D 2017 %R 10.1109/ROMA.2017.8231823 %T Classification of bearing faults using extreme learning machine algorithm %I Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc. %A C.
