Abstract
Recently, canonical correlation analysis (CCA) has been explored to address the fault detection (FD) problem for industrial systems. However, most of the CCA-based FD methods assume both Gaussianity of measurement signals and linear relationships among variables. These assumptions may be improper in some practical scenarios so that direct applications of these CCA-based FD strategies are arguably not optimal. With the aid of neural networks, this work proposes a new nonlinear counterpart called a single-side CCA (SsCCA) to enhance FD performance. The contributions of this work are four-fold: 1) an objective function for the nonlinear CCA is first reformulated, based on which a generalized solution is presented; 2) for the practical implementation, a particular solution of SsCCA is developed; 3) an SsCCA-based FD algorithm is designed for nonlinear systems, whose optimal FD ability is illustrated via theoretical analysis; and 4) based on the difference in FD results between two test statistics, fault diagnosis can be directly achieved. The studies on a nonlinear three-tank system are carried out to verify the effectiveness of the proposed SsCCA method.
