Aerospace systems are composed of hundreds or thousands of components and complex subsystems which need an appropriate health monitoring capability to enable safe operation in various conditions. In terms of monitoring systems, it is possible to find a considerable number of state-of-the-art works in the literature related to ad-hoc solutions. Still, it is challenging to reuse them even with subtle differences in analogous subsystems or components. This paper proposes the Generic Anomaly Detection Hybridization Algorithm (GADHA) aiming to build a more reusable algorithm to support anomaly detection. The solution consists of analyzing different supervised machine learning classification algorithms combined in ensemble techniques, with a physical model when available, and two levels of a decision to estimate the current state of the monitored system. Finally, the proposed algorithm assures at least equal, or, more typically, better, overall accuracy in fault detection and isolation than the application of such algorithms alone, through few adaptations.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
