TLDR
A number of methods for detecting abrupt changes (such as failures) in stochastic dynamical systems are surveyed in this paper, where tradeoffs in complexity versus performance are discussed, ranging from the design of specific failure-sensitive filters, to the use of statistical tests on filter innovations, and the development of jump process formulations.
Abstract
A number of methods for detecting abrupt changes (such as failures) in stochastic dynamical systems are surveyed. The class of linear systems is concentrated on but the basic concepts, if not the detailed analyses, carry over to other classes of systems. The methods surveyed range from the design of specific failure-sensitive filters, to the use of statistical tests on filter innovations, to the development of jump process formulations. Tradeoffs in complexity versus performance are discussed.

Hierarchical Time-Extended Petri Nets (H-EPNs) for Integrated Control and Diagnostics of Multilevel Systems

TL;DR: H-EPNs provide the flexibility of constructing multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) subnet structures for system modeling that greatly enhances the applicability of Petri Nets in generating complex system models.

Fault analysis of in-core detectors in a PWR using time-series models

TL;DR: In this paper, a method incorporating the dual-hypotheses decision procedure and system characterization using time-domain models of process variables representing a subsystem is presented, which can be developed on-line, and can be adapted to changing system conditions.

Parameter and state estimation for uncertain linear systems by multiple observers

TL;DR: In this article, the state of a linear time-invariant system can be described by a linear combination of state estimates generated by suitable multiple observers, where the weights of the linear combination are the parameters to be estimated.

Diagnosis of On-Board Sensors in Internal Combustion (IC) Engines

TL;DR: In this article, the Binary Phase Detection Filter (BPDF) is proposed for sensor diagnosis in electronically controlled IC engines, based on the failure detection and isolation (FDI) theory, and the resulting diagnostic systems can be implemented in on-board digital computers of passenger vehicles.

On-board sensor failure detection of an active suspension system using the generalized likelihood ratio approach

TL;DR: In this paper, the application of the generalized likelihood ratio (GLR) approach for on-board sensor failure detection and identification (FDI) of an active suspension system using a half-car (bicycle) model is discussed.
