This study proposes a framework for the automated hyperparameter optimization of a bearing fault detection pipeline for Permanent Magnet Synchronous Motors (PMSMs) without the need for external sensors. An Automated Machine Learning (AutoML) pipeline search is performed through genetic optimization to reduce human-induced bias due to inappropriate parameterizations. A search space is defined, which includes general methods of signal processing and manipulation as well as methods tailored to the respective task and domain. The proposed framework is evaluated on the bearing fault detection use case under real-world conditions. Considerations on the generalization of the deployed fault detection pipelines are also considered. Likewise, attention was paid to experimental studies for evaluations of the robustness of the fault detection pipeline to variations of the motors working condition parameters between the training and test domain.
