abstract
One of the most popular multivariate statistical methods used for data-based process monitoring is Principal Component Analysis (PCA). In the absence of a process model, PCA has been successfully used as a data-based FD technique for highly correlated process variables. Some of the PCA detection indices include the T2 or Q statistics, which have their advantages and disadvantages. When a process model is available, however, the generalized likelihood ratio (GLR) test, which is a statistical hypothesis testing method, has shown good fault detection abili ties. In this work, a PCA-based GLR fault detection algorithm is developed to exploit the advantages of the GLR test in the absence of a process model. In fact, PCA is used to provide a modeling framework for the develop fault detection algorithm. The PCA-based GLR fault detection algorithm provides optimal properties by maximizing the detection probability of faults for a given false alarm rate. However, the presence of measurement noise and modeling errors increase the rate of false alarms. Therefore, to further improve the quality of fault detection, multiscale filtering is utilized to filter the residuals obtained from the PCA model, which helps suppress the effect on errors, and thus decrease the false alarm rate. The proposed fault detection methodology is demonstrated through its application to monitor the ozone level in the Upper Normandy region, France, and it is shown to effectively reduce the rate of false alarms whilst retaining the capability of detecting process faults. 2013 IEEE.
