Statistical process monitoring with independent component analysis

11495

In this paper we propose a new statistical method for process monitoring that uses independent component analysis (ICA). ICA is a recently developed method in which the goal is to decompose observed data into linear combinations of statistically independent components [1,2]. Such a representation has been shown to capture the essential structure of the data in many applications, including signal separation and feature extraction. The basic idea of our approach is to use ICA to extract the essential independent components that drive a process and to combine them with process monitoring techniques. I2, I2 e and SPE charts are proposed as on-line monitoring charts and contribution plots of these statistical quantities are also considered for fault identification. The proposed monitoring method was applied to fault detection and identification in both a simple multivariate process and the simulation benchmark of the biological wastewater treatment process, which is characterized by a variety of fault sources with non-Gaussian characteristics. The simulation results clearly show the power and advantages of ICA monitoring in comparison to PCA monitoring.
