AUTOMATED DETECTION OF ANOMALOUS INDUSTRIAL PROCESS OPERATION

摘要

Automated detection of anomalous operation of equipment in an industrial process. A reporting architecture utilizes scaled entropy calculations that enable comparing signal entropies across a plurality of time periods without prior knowledge of the scale of the signal. The reporting architecture combines the scaled entropy values with statistical analyses to detect anomalous time periods that represent anomalous operation of equipment in an industrial process. The reporting architecture generates reports of the anomalous operation for transmission to particular user devices via a communications network.
