This paper proposes a novel unsupervised classification method to solve the problem of mechanical fault diagnosis under the condition of unknown number of fault types. The proposed method combining the three data processing stage. First, the deep encoding neural networks is used to complete the abstract signal feature representation under the unsupervised conditions. Second, the feature dimensionality reduction technique based on manifold learning is used to complete the low-dimensional mapping of the feature space. Third, the spatial clustering based on density criterion is introduced to classify the different fault samples. This paper uses two fault signals dataset to complete the performance verification experiment. The experimental results show that the DMDUC method respectively achieves the classification accuracy of 99.7 % and 100 % on the two datasets. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
