TL;DR: In this paper, the mauvais fonctionnement and l'effet des erreurs se propagent par causalite d'une variable a l'autre, en satisfaisant finalement les contraintes du procede en regime permanent.
Abstract: Dans une analyse qualitative le mauvais fonctionnement et l'effet des erreurs se propagent par causalite d'une variable a l'autre, en satisfaisant finalement les contraintes du procede en regime permanent. Les contraintes des series d'equations algebriques, sont representees par des equations de confluence stationnaires. La causalite est representee par le graphe oriente signe etendu (Extended Signed Directed Graph: ESDG)

TL;DR: A multilayer perceptron network with a hyperbolic tangent as the nonlinear element seems best suited for the task of fault diagnosis in a realistic heat exchanger-continuous stirred tank reactor system.
Abstract: Fault detection and diagnosis is an important problem in process automation. Both model-based methods and expert systems have been suggested to solve the problem, along with the pattern recognition approach. A number of possible neural network architectures for fault diagnosis are studied. The multilayer perceptron network with a hyperbolic tangent as the nonlinear element seems best suited for the task. As a test case, a realistic heat exchanger-continuous stirred tank reactor system is studied. The system has 14 noisy measurements and 10 faults. The proposed neural network was able to learn the faults in under 3000 training cycles and then to detect and classify the faults correctly. Principal component analysis is used to illustrate the fault diagnosis problem in question. >

TL;DR: A realistic heat exchanger-continuous stirred tank reactor system is studied as a test case and the fault detection and diagnosis is based on the classification of process measurements and the classification is carried out using neural networks.
