Deep feature learning network for fault detection and isolation
Prognostics and Health Management (PHM) approaches typically involve several signal processing and feature engineering steps. The state of the art on feature engineering, comprising feature extraction and feature dimensionality reduction, often only provides specific solutions for specific problems, but rarely supports transferability or generalization: it often requires expert knowledge and extensive intervention. In this paper, we propose a new integrated feature learning approach for jointly achieving fault detection and fault isolation in high-dimensional condition monitoring data. The proposed approach, based on Hierarchical Extreme Learning Machines (HELM) demonstrates a good ability to detect and isolate faults in large datasets comprising signals of different natures, non-informative signals, non-linear relationships and noise. The method includes stacked auto-encoders that are able to learn the underlying high-level features, and a one-class classifier to combine the learned features in an indicator that represents the deviation from the normal system behavior. Once a deviation is identified, features are used to isolate the most deviating signal components. Two case studies highlight the benefits of the approach: First, a synthetic dataset with the typical characteristics of condition monitoring data and different types of faults is applied to evaluate the performance with objective metrics. Second, the approach is tested on data stemming from a power plant generator interturn failure. In both cases, the results are compared to other commonly applied approaches for fault isolation
Scalable and Interpretable One-class SVMs with Deep Learning and Random Fourier features
One-class support vector machine (OC-SVM) for a long time has been one of the
most effective anomaly detection methods and extensively adopted in both
research as well as industrial applications. The biggest issue for OC-SVM is
yet the capability to operate with large and high-dimensional datasets due to
optimization complexity. Those problems might be mitigated via dimensionality
reduction techniques such as manifold learning or autoencoder. However,
previous work often treats representation learning and anomaly prediction
separately. In this paper, we propose autoencoder based one-class support
vector machine (AE-1SVM) that brings OC-SVM, with the aid of random Fourier
features to approximate the radial basis kernel, into deep learning context by
combining it with a representation learning architecture and jointly exploit
stochastic gradient descent to obtain end-to-end training. Interestingly, this
also opens up the possible use of gradient-based attribution methods to explain
the decision making for anomaly detection, which has ever been challenging as a
result of the implicit mappings between the input space and the kernel space.
To the best of our knowledge, this is the first work to study the
interpretability of deep learning in anomaly detection. We evaluate our method
on a wide range of unsupervised anomaly detection tasks in which our end-to-end
training architecture achieves a performance significantly better than the
previous work using separate training.Comment: Accepted at European Conference on Machine Learning and Principles

Enhanced Industrial Machinery Condition Monitoring Methodology based on Novelty Detection and Multi-Modal Analysis
This paper presents a condition-based monitoring methodology based on novelty detection applied to industrial machinery. The proposed approach includes both, the classical classification of multiple a priori known scenarios, and the innovative detection capability of new operating modes not previously available. The development of condition-based monitoring methodologies considering the isolation capabilities of unexpected scenarios represents, nowadays, a trending topic able to answer the demanding requirements of the future industrial processes monitoring systems. First, the method is based on the temporal segmentation of the available physical magnitudes, and the estimation of a set of time-based statistical features. Then, a double feature reduction stage based on Principal Component Analysis and Linear Discriminant Analysis is applied in order to optimize the classification and novelty detection performances. The posterior combination of a Feed-forward Neural Network and One-Class Support Vector Machine allows the proper interpretation of known and unknown operating conditions. The effectiveness of this novel condition monitoring scheme has been verified by experimental results obtained from an automotive industry machine.Postprint (published version
