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.

Finite Horizon Control Design for Optimal Discrimination between Several Models

TL;DR: A new method that can ensure that a defined task is fulfilled, while optimally discriminating between models is described, which significantly reduces the bound on the probability of error when compared to a manually generated identification sequence and a fuel-optimal sequence.

The Vulnerability of Cyber-Physical System under Stealthy Attacks

TL;DR: This article provides necessary and sufficient conditions for the vulnerability and strictly vulnerability of the cyber-physical system (CPS) modeled as a stochastic linear system and provides a performance bound for the difference between healthy and attacked system.

On-line diagnostics of a self-contained flight actuator

TL;DR: In this article, a mathematical model describing the dynamics of a self-contained flight control actuator is established, and typical failures of the actuator are defined in the space of the model parameters in the form of a failure pattern library.

Combined bias and outlier identification in dynamic data reconciliation

TL;DR: A novel technique for the detection and identification of systematic bias is formulated and presented and the problem of detection, identification and elimination of outliers is treated using a modified version of a previously available clustering technique to provide a global dynamic data reconciliation (DDR).

Fault detection and diagnosis in propulsion systems - A fault parameter estimation approach

TL;DR: In this article, a fault detection and diagnosis (FDD) system for the Space Shuttle main engine is presented, which utilizes a model-based method with real-time identification and hypothesis testing for actuation, sensor, and performance degradation faults.
