Predicting early warnings of an operating mode of equipment in industry plants
Currently solutions for early detection of failures in manufacturing utilize predefined threshold levels of the process variables associated with equipment in manufacturing unit/industry plants. The pre-defined threshold and levels thereof are compared with the real values obtained from the manufacturing unit to check behavior of process variables (also referred as ‘process parameters’) and thus are prone to error. The present disclosure provides systems and method for predicting early warning of operating mode of equipment operating in industry plants which is based on transforming conditions on process parameters into conditions on corresponding fuzzy indices based on their thresholds. The fuzzy indices (concordance index, discordance index) of individual conditions are combined into a composite fuzzy index (composite index or degree of credibility) that describes the failure scenario in the process parameter space. A fuzzy logic-based detection is useful for detecting a failure mode early and providing alerts to operators for necessary action.
Anomaly detection using MSET with random projections
Disclosed is an approach to implement improved anomaly detection. Improved anomaly detection is provided using MSET-SPRT via Monte Carlo simulation that can address problems with conventional MSET-SPRT approaches and provide improved system performance and accuracy.
SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR GLOBAL CYBER-ATTACK OR FAULT DETECTION MODEL
An industrial asset may have monitoring nodes that generate current monitoring node values representing a current operation of the industrial asset. An abnormality detection computer may detect when a monitoring node is currently being attacked or experiencing a fault based on a current feature vector, calculated in accordance with current monitoring node values, and a detection model that includes a decision boundary. A model updater (e.g., a continuous learning model updater) may determine an update time-frame (e.g., short-term, mid-term, long-term, etc.) associated with the system based on trigger occurrence detection (e.g., associated with a time-based trigger, a performance-based trigger, an event-based trigger, etc.). The model updater may then update the detection model in accordance with the determined update time-frame (and, in some embodiments, continuous learning).
Systems and methods for equipment performance modeling
An equipment performance modeling platform is disclosed. In certain embodiments, an adaptive sensing coordinator acquires sensor measurements, configures and processes the sensor measurements for a specific statistical model, and sends the measurements to a server. A server performs data processing, provides storage (e.g., local or in a database), and provides an interface for data extraction. Statistical models are used to interpreting sensor values for a type of equipment, and a labeling mechanism labels performance occurrences.
