A new process monitoring method based on noisy time structure independent component analysis

一种基于含噪时序结构独立元分析的过程监控方法(英文)

Conventional process monitoring method based on fast independent component analysis(Fast ICA) cannot take the ubiquitous measurement noises into account and may exhibit degraded monitoring performance under the adverse effects of the measurement noises. In this paper, a new process monitoring approach based on noisy time structure ICA(Noisy TSICA) is proposed to solve such problem. A Noisy TSICA algorithm which can consider the measurement noises explicitly is firstly developed to estimate the mixing matrix and extract the independent components(ICs). Subsequently, a monitoring statistic is built to detect process faults on the basis of the recursive kurtosis estimations of the dominant ICs. Lastly, a contribution plot for the monitoring statistic is constructed to identify the fault variables based on the sensitivity analysis. Simulation studies on the continuous stirred tank reactor system demonstrate that the proposed Noisy TSICA-based monitoring method outperforms the conventional Fast ICA-based monitoring method.
