I. INTRODUCTION
Fault detection and classification are significant in the diagnostic system field to improve system reliability and safety. A circuit is referred as a faulty circuit when it exhibits continuous unexpected behavior. Two types of failure modes occur, namely, catastrophic and parametric faults. Catastrophic fault is the sudden and total failure of a system in which recovery is impossible. Parametric failure only shifts the device parameters and may manifest during stress testing. Different fault diagnosis approaches exist, such as approximation approach, artificial intelligence (AI) technique, fault dictionary approach, fault verification approach, and parameter identification (ID) approach. These approaches can be categorized into two types namely, simulation before testing and simulation after testing.
Different constraints are essential in formulating a fault dictionary. Such constraints are extracted from the operational circuit during simulation after testing.
A fault tolerance system consists of three major components, namely, component redundancy, fault detection and isolation system, and reconfiguration system. Fault diagnosis is a combination of fault detection and isolation. Primary detection of failure prevents damages and enhances fault tolerance.
Failure detection can guarantee the reliability and safety of a circuit. Faults can be categorized into several types, such as phase-to-ground fault, phase-to-phase fault, phase-phase-to ground fault, and three-phase fault. Other faults in electricity are unimportant but are still considered for power system operation. These faults are open-circuit, inter-turn, and other faults. Among all types of failure in variable-speed AC drives in the industry, 38% are due to power device faults. Maximum inverters use insulated-gate bipolar transistors (IGBTs) as power devices because of their maximum voltage and current ratings, although they cause faults because of the excess electrical pressure with many applications.
In this study, novel fault detection and classification techniques are developed, and optimization techniques are analyzed. DWT and PCA are incorporated to extract features from a three-phase inverter circuit. This scheme incorporates most of the processes that have to be conducted during the training phase. The database constructed in this step is called a fault dictionary. Fuzzy logic (FL) system and relevance vector machine (RVM) are utilized for efficient fault classification. Optimization techniques, such as evolutionary particle swarm optimization (EPSO) and cuckoo search optimization (CSO), are applied to validate the proposed fault detection system with classification methods. Four combinations of EPSO and CSO with RVM and fuzzy are analyzed to identify the resultant optimization with classification techniques. The novel contribution of this study is that it integrates optimization with classification techniques to detect faults in a three-phase single-inverter circuit.
The remainder of this paper is organized as follows. Section 2 summarizes the related work in fault detection and classification techniques. Section 3 describes the proposed system. Section 4 presents the performance analysis, and Section 5 provides the conclusion and directions for future work.

The designated feature performance was evaluated by the corresponding waveform [37]. Debnath et al. formulated a CSO algorithm for harmonic elimination in multi-level inverters [38].
III. FAULT DETECTION AND CLASSIFICATION WITH OPTIMIZATION METHODOLOGY
This section describes the fault detection in a three-phase inverter by applying several approaches. In existing systems, amplitude is obtained from phases, and absolute values are checked with the threshold values. If the absolute value is above the threshold, then the system has no faults. Existing approaches do not effectively identify faults. Several data-mining techniques are applied to efficiently detect faults. Fault detection is an important part of the diagnostic system to guarantee the reliability and safety of the system under study. In this study, the fault analysis system deals with the prediction of faulty components/regions from the features of phase voltage and current. Prediction of faulty components allows for the identification of output signal variation to prevent damage to the load connected at the end of the inverter. This process provides safety to the connected load and precaution for the faulty components in the inverter system.
A circuit that exhibits continuous unexpected behavior is referred to as a faulty circuit. IGBT failures can be classified into intermittent gate-misfiring, open-circuit, and short-circuit faults. Each phase of the three-phase inverter circuit is analyzed based on wavelet transform. The standard deviation (SD) of the transform coefficients is fed as input to the classifier to identify the fault type. The main objectives of this study are listed below.
The overall flow of the proposed fault detection and classification mechanism is depicted in Fig. 2.
A. Inverter Model
Fig. 1 shows the basic structure of the three-phase voltage-source inverter. The inverter is utilized to convert DC to AC. The pulse-width modulation (PWM) technique is applied to control switches. The inverter comprises IGBT switches and has three phases, in which each phase has two switches. The intersective method is utilized to generate the PWM waveform. In this method, a triangle waveform is used as the reference signal. A comparator is required to compare the modulation waveform and reference signal. Inverter power faults are subdivided into short and open circuits. In the open-circuit fault condition, the IGBT remains off state. In most cases, short circuit causes overcurrent detected by the standard protection system, and shutdown is carried out. An open-circuit fault occurs because of the lifting of bonding wires caused by thermal cycling. Open-circuit faults do not cause system shutdown but degrade the system performance.
Fig. 1.Schematic of the three-phase inverter circuit.
Fig. 2.Structure of the proposed fault detection and classification method.
The fault diagnosis method can be classified into the following steps.
B. Feature Extraction Based on DWT and PCA
The feature extraction process is proposed to improve the difference in the current change between transistor-base-drive short- and open-circuit faults and other faults, such as intermittent misfiring across inverter switching devices, load disturbance, and single line-to-ground at the machine terminal. DWT and PCA are combined to perform the feature extraction process.
1) DWT: The DWT method is utilized to decompose an input signal of interest into a set of elementary waveforms called wavelets. Signals can be investigated by examining the wavelet coefficients. One of the key advantages of the wavelets is their capability to perform local analysis. A wavelet generally analyzes a localized area of a large signal. Compared with traditional signal-processing techniques, wavelets can produce optimal results in the areas of pattern analysis, breakdown point judgment, and discontinuity examination. Analysis and synthesis of the original signal also can be performed with reduced consumption time. The signals are analyzed by using filters at different frequencies and scales. Low- and high-pass filters are used in the analysis of low and high-frequency signals, respectively.
Wavelet transform is a method to analyze signals. DWT is a distinct case of wavelet transform that provides a dense representation of a signal that can be efficiently calculated. DWT is described as follows:
Where x(k) denotes the input signal from three phases and Ψ(t) is a time function with energy and decay termed mother wavelet.
The extracted wavelet coefficients provide a compact depiction that represents the energy distribution of the signal based on time and frequency.
2) PCA: The optimal projection vectors of PCA, x1,…xd, are used to extract features. The mean value of the “X” input obtained from DWT is computed using the following equation.
After the computation of the mean value, the difference between the input vector and the mean value is estimated using the following equation.
Covariance matrix “C” is generated for the mean difference data using the following equation.
From the covariance matrix, the Eigen vector is calculated as
The Eigen matrix is constructed based on the following equation,
By using the Eigen matrix, the projected features from PCA are obtained as follows:
The family of projected feature vectors Y1… Yd is then obtained. These vectors are called principal component vectors of the sample.
C. Fault Dictionary Generation
The fault dictionary is defined as a database of faults utilized by simulators to determine the fault coverage. When a diagnostic system attempts to diagnose problems, it exploits the fault dictionary to analyze the types of faults. The SDs retrieved for all the three phases for different test faults are presented in Table I.
TABLE IFAULT DICTIONARY
This table can be utilized as a fault dictionary during the classifier stage of diagnosis. The fault dictionary is then used for fault diagnosis by FL and RVM. In the table, T1 refers to IGBT1, T2 refers to IGBT2 , and so on. Phase 1 denotes Line 1, Phase 2 denotes Line 2, and so on.
D. Fault Classification based on FL System and RVM
1) FL System: After generating the standardized peak values of the wavelet coefficients of fault signals, the FL system is used to categorize the fault types. The FL system is well suited to uncertain and fault classification problems. The fuzzy if–then rules for the class G pattern classification problem with k attributes can be stated as rule Mi. If x1 is Ai1 and xk is Aik , then class Gi, i = 1, 2…K, where x = (x1 … xk) k-dimensional pattern vector Aij is the antecedent linguistic value and K is the number of fuzzy if–then rules. The compatibility grade µi (x) of the fuzzy if–then rules Pi is provided by
where,
µij (xj ) is the membership function of the antecedent linguistic value Aij .
The feature vector database is expressed as follows:
where,
ωlow and ωhigh are the desired higher and lower bounds of the inertia weight. Thigh is the maximum allowed number of iterations after the algorithms complete the process. A time-dependent linearly decreasing value of inertia weight is usually considered to solve the global optimization problem.
2) RVM: Assuming that p (m|x) is Gaussian N (m | y(x), σ2), the likelihood can be defined as
where,
g denotes the growth of the weight value utilized to learn the relationship between the training and testing datasets,
m represents the training feature points,
σ2 denotes the variance of the Gaussian kernel,
ψ is the feature matrix with ψba = F(xb, xa-1)
F(xb, xa-1) represents the features of the input (xb, xa-1)
xb represents the row of the input matrix,
xa represents the columns of the input matrix including the label column, and
xa-1 represents the columns of the input matrix excluding the label column.
An explicit zero mean Gaussian prior probability distribution across the weight is constrained as
where,
α represents a parameter in the Gaussian distribution function.
When applying the features F(xb, xa-1) to the Gaussian kernel, the classification operation is performed.
3) CSO: Cuckoo search is an optimization algorithm that yields better solutions than existing techniques. A recent study [40] has shown that CSO is highly suitable for large-scale problems. Cuckoo search is also a reliable approach for embedded system design and design optimization [41]. A cuckoo egg denotes a new solution, and each host bird egg in a nest denotes a solution. The objective of this optimization is to replace the worst solution with a possibly better solution. Fig. 3 illustrates the overall process of the CSO algorithm, and the step-by-step procedure is explained below.
Fig. 3.CSO algorithm.
Three idealized rules are defined for CSO [42].
The steps involved in the CSO algorithm is described below.
The first step in the CSO algorithm is the initialization of the population number. The user generally provides the starting range for the population number. However, if the user does not provide the starting range, the CSO algorithm assumes a default value and initializes the population number. The second step in the CSO algorithm is cuckoo generation. The fixation of the initial population is based on the objective function. The proposed CSO algorithm exploits the Levy flight and generates the cuckoo randomly.
The quality of the generated solution is estimated using the objective function and the load flow. The third and fourth steps of the CSO algorithm are replacement and new nest generation, respectively. A new nest is randomly selected from the “n” number of population to replace the already existing solution with a new one. If the quality of the new solution is better than that of the existing solution, then the existing solution is replaced with the new solution. Based on the probability value (Pa), the low-quality nest is abandoned, and a new nest is built. The last step in the CSO algorithm is termination. After satisfying the stopping criteria, the iteration can be stopped, and the results of the CSO can be obtained.
The steps involved in the proposed RVM–CSO are elaborated below.
First, the proposed RVM–CSO initializes the training features f(x) and BSP. BSP is a thresholding process. Second, RVM–CSO initializes the best fitness value using the equation
where,
Varhigh denotes the high variance of f(x),
Varlow represents the low variance of f(x), and npar is the number of feature particles.
Third, the random center position of the cuckoo is initialized as follows:
The maximum profit for the first iteration is estimated as follows:
With Equ. (14) as the objective function, a cuckoo egg is generated as follows:
For i = 1 to Number of iterations
The number of iterations ranges from 1 to 300. During each iteration, the maximum profit value is checked with the threshold BSP. If the computed profit value is higher than 0.9, cuckoo eggs are generated. The x and y coordinates of the cuckoo egg matrix are estimated using the following equations.
where,
n=1, 2... denotes the number of iterations.
With the Levy flight X and Y coordinate points, the cuckoo radius is redefined as follows:
where,
P (m) is the probability of the number of eggs at each center location.
The radius of egg laying and the maximum profit are updated using the following equations.
After updating the radius and the maximum profit value, the pre-computed maximum profit value is compared with the updated maximum profit value. If the updated maximum profit value is greater than the pre-computed maximum profit value, the maximum profit and cuckoo center are updated to the new position.
The updated profit and cuckoo center are clustered until the iteration size is reached. After the last iteration, the updated cuckoo center is provided as the best fitness value output.
In our proposed work, the feature matrix is provided as input. Cuckoo is initialized, which provides training features and the accuracy value. The center position of the cuckoo is extracted by using equations. The initial fitness value is extracted, and the maximum profit of the initial iteration is estimated to extract cluster formation. Iteration is performed to estimate the number of eggs laid in an allocated area. In the abovementioned algorithm, Varhigh denotes the high-variable limit and Varlow represents the low-variable limit. Rand indicates the random value, which ranges from 0 to 2.

Optimization techniques, such as EPSO and CSO, optimize the input features of the three-phase inverter circuit. Based on fuzzy rules, the optimized results are classified to identify the fault type in the inverter circuit.

They need considerable knowledge that should be constructed manually. Hence, a stable solution is difficult to obtain. MLP and RBF also require a large amount of training data and need to adjust the parameters of the hidden activation function. An optimization solution with classification techniques should be introduced to overcome the drawbacks of existing methods. The optimization technique results in discriminant features for classification.
Hence, we evaluate the best four combinations of classification and optimization techniques. Among the combinations, CSO-RVM is the most efficient in determining faults in three-phase single-inverter circuits. The proposed CSO–RVM method results in better accuracy compared with existing methods. Table VIII shows the comparison of the classification with and without optimization techniques for the training and testing phases with the corresponding switching states. The switching states are similar for all results. The faulty waveform for the T1 transistor is depicted in Fig.14. The change in the amplitude with respect to varying time is depicted in Fig.14. The change in the amplitude with respect to the varying time is analyzed. The fault prediction and rectification by the existing traditional methods are depicted in Fig.15.The fault prediction and rectification by the proposed CSO-RVM method is depicted in Fig.16. From Fig.15 and 16 it is clear that the proposed CSO-RVM provides optimal fault prediction and rectification results than the traditional methods.

V. CONCLUSION AND FUTURE WORK
In this study, an effective methodology was developed for fault detection and classification with optimization techniques in a three-phase inverter circuit. Twenty-five faulty components exist, which are included in the proposed fault dictionary to describe faults and their corresponding conditions. The performance of the classification with optimization techniques such as EPSO with RVM, EPSO with fuzzy, CSO with RVM, and CSO with fuzzy are analyzed. The analysis results prove that the combination of CSO with RVM provides better results than the others during the training and testing phases to detect faulty conditions. Compared with existing methods, the proposed CSO-RVM method provides optimal feature selection, higher fault classification accuracy, minimal time consumption for training and testing processes, and optimal prediction and fault rectification capability. CSO and RVM successfully solve the optimization problem in power systems and minimize the losses and the voltage control problem in the said systems. These optimization techniques easily achieve a solution for complex problems in which existing techniques present difficulties in converging. CSO–RVM also exhibits better performance than existing AI systems in terms of accuracy. In future, faults could be detected in transmission lines based on classification and optimization techniques. The size of the fault dictionary could also be increased.
