Abstract

This paper presents a framework for fault detection and diagnosis of batch processes based on the information directly gathered from sensors. First, a statistical model of the process is build using Multiway Principal Component Analysis (MPCA) for dimensionality reduction and fault detection tasks. Afterwards, a Case-Based Reasoning (CBR) approach is used for fault diagnosis and for false alarm and missed detection reduction. This framework has been tested in two completely different fields: Power Quality Monitoring for relative location of voltage sags and Injection Moulding Processes for faulty sensor detection and diagnosis. Results obtained show that this framework presents a good performance and is general enough to be applied to any field, if the appropriate pre-process of the data is carried.
