A Novel Hierarchical Detection and Isolation Framework for Quality-Related Multiple Faults in Large-Scale Processes

摘要

This paper is devoted to the industrial practices and theoretical approaches for detection and isolation of quality-related multiple faults in large-scale processes. In contrast to the previous schemes, the main innovations are as follows: 1) it is the first time a hierarchical detection and isolation framework for quality-related multiple faults in large-scale processes is developed; 2) a combination method of adaptive kernel canonical variable analysis and Bayesian fusion for real-time and hierarchical detection of varying and unknown quality-related multiple faults is presented; and 3) a robust sparse exponential discriminant analysis algorithm for accurate isolation of multimode quality-related multiple faults is proposed. Finally, the whole framework is applied to a typical large-scale process, i.e., hot strip mill process, where the performance and effectiveness are further demonstrated from real industrial data.
