Fault diagnosis and fault-tolerant estimation of a rail traction system via fuzzy observers:

TLDR
A bank of fuzzy observers is used to detect faults and to isolate failed sensors and the fuzzy observer driven by healthy sensors provides reliable torque and flux estimates which are used for the control purpose.
Abstract
This paper studies the fault diagnosis and fault-tolerant estimation problems of a rail traction system. The main idea is to use a bank of fuzzy observers to detect faults and to isolate failed sensors. Once the failed sensor is isolated, the fuzzy observer driven by healthy sensors provides reliable torque and flux estimates which are used for the control purpose. The concept and design procedures for fuzzy observers are presented in this paper. A fuzzy observer is able to produce accurate state estimations and generate robust residuals for non-linear dynamic systems such as a rail traction system. The fault diagnosis and fault-tolerant estimation scheme proposed for the rail traction system is demonstrated using simulations.

SVD-based complexity reduction to TS fuzzy models

TL;DR: In this paper, a singular value decomposition (SVD)-based complexity reduction technique is proposed for Takagi Sugeno (TS) fuzzy models, which has exponentially growing computational complexity with the improvement of its approximation property through increasing the density of antecedent terms.
