Regime Recognition (RR) is a key enabling technology for a Usage Based Maintenance (UBM) program. If the estimated aircraft usage spectrum provided by such an RR algorithm is sufficiently accurate, then component life expenditure can be calculated as a function of the duration and number of occurrences of each flight regime. In general, production RR algorithms with the required accuracy have not been fielded, in part because of the challenges associated with Verification and Validation (V&V). In particular, the distinction between transient (event-based) regimes and steady-state (duration-based) regimes is an important consideration when defining performance metrics in a V&V process. While duration-based regimes lend themselves well to traditional analysis metrics that employ a confusion matrix, event-based regimes lack the error properties that make such analysis methods possible. In this paper we present analysis methods that address this deficiency and allow the use of well understood metrics derived from the traditional confusion matrix.
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.
