Abstract :
A fault detection and diagnosis (FDD) method is proposed by combining transfer entropy (TE) and signed digraph (SDG). Given process historical data, transfer entropy is used to construct a SDG model to represent causal relationship between process variables. A fault severity evaluation method is then proposed based on the modified SDG model, where the nodes can take values of (0), (±1), (±3) and (±6). Then, an index named DoF is developed to measure fault severity. The application results can verify the effectiveness and feasibility of the proposed method.
