Fast incipient fault diagnosis is becoming one of the key requirements for economical and optimal process operation management in high-tech industries. Artificial neural networks have been used to detect faults for a number of years and shown to be highly successful in this application area. This paper presents a novel test technique for fault detection and classification for module process of TFT-LCD manufacture using support vector machines (SVMs). In order to evaluate SVMs, this paper examines the performance of the proposed method by comparing it with that of multilayer perception, one of the artificial neural network techniques, based on real benchmarking data.

In this paper, dynamic control model is formulated by considering the geometrical structure of the deaerator storage tank in nuclear power plant and input-output flow rate at steady state, and we describe fault detection and diagnosis (FDD) scheme based on the adaptive estimator. The performance and effectiveness of the proposed FDD scheme are evaluated by applying real operating data obtained from the YOUNGKWANG 3 & 4 FSAR.

In this paper, a fault diagnosis method based on fuzzy logic for the three-parallel power converter in a wind turbine system is presented. The method can not only detect both open and short faults but can also identify faulty switching devices without additional voltage sensors or an analysis modeling of the system. The location of a faulty switch can be indicated by six-patterns of a stator current vector and the fault switching device detection is achieved by analyzing the current vector. A fault tolerant algorithm is also presented to maintain proper performance under faulty conditions. The reliability of the proposed fault detection technique has been proven by simulations and experiments with a 10kW simulator.

Nowadays, gastropathy is a common disease. As endoscopic equipment are developed and used widely, it is possible to provide a large number of endoscopy images. Computer-aided Diagnosis (CADx) systems aim at helping physicians to identify possibly malignant abnormalities more accurately. In this paper, we present a CADx system to detect and classify the abnormalities of gastric lesions which include bleeding, ulcer, neuroendocrine tumor and cancer. We used an Inception module based deep learning model. And we used data augmentation for learning. Our preliminary results demonstrated promising potential for automatically labeled region of interest for endoscopy doctors to focus on abnormal lesions for subsequent targeted biopsy, with Az values of Receiver Operating Characteristic(ROC) curve was 0.83. The proposed CADx system showed reliable performance.

Mahalanobis Taguchi System (MTS) is a pattern information technology, which has been used in different diagnostic applications to make quantitative decisions by constructing a multivariate measurement scale using data analytic methods without any assumption regarding statistical distribution. The MTS performs Taguchi's fractional factorial design based on the Mahahlanobis Distance (MS) as a performance metric. In this work, MTS is used for analyzing Wisconsin Breast Cancer data which has ten attributes. Ten different tests are conducted for the data to determine if the patient has cancer or not. Also, MTS is used for reducing the number of test to define the relationship between each attribute and diagnosis result. The accuracy of diagnosis is compare with two different previous research.

Logistic Support Analysis(LSA) and Logistic Supportability Review must be carried out as soon as possible in development stage in order to minimize operation/maintenance cost that head the list of weapon cost and improve logistic supportability of the weapon system. And the result must be used for hardware designs to set up to be able to input to the system design and logistic support elements. Therefore Logistic Support Elements must be planed/developed/supplied with the main combat system concurrently and performance and logistic supportability of the comabat system had better be improved mutually. This report describes maintenance concept changes of weapon systems, fault diagnosis function and test equipment state on the domestic MBT(main battle tank). And then it presents application and intensification of itself fault diagnosis system for a domestic future MBT considering connection with IETM(Interactive Electronic Technical Manual) and TE(Test Equipment).

The UWB UHF coupler for GIS PD detection requires a balun (balance to unbalance transformer) to show its inherent UWB characteristics. In order to reduce the size of the balun and to make it practical in the conventional GIS, a novel tapered coaxial balun with a dielectric was proposed for the UWB UHF coupler. The performance of the proposed balun was verified through a series of simulations, measurements and experiments. As a result, both the conventional balun and the proposed balun, which has a length equal to one third of that of the conventional balun, demonstrated good S11 characteristics, whereas the efficiency of the proposed balun increased as much as about 30% in comparison to the conventional one.

This paper presents a serial communication based fault diagnosis scheme for a brushless DC (BLDC) motor using parameter estimation and Bayes classifier. The presented scheme consists of a smart network board, and a fault detection and isolation (FDI) master. The smart network board is installed near the BLDC motor drive system to acquire motor data and transmit motor data to the FDI-master via serial communication channel. The FDI-master estimates BLDC motor resistance to detect symptom of faults, and assign symptom to fault type using Bayes classifier. In this scheme, since communication time delay has a serious effect on performance, periodic and fixed communication protocol is designed. Hence, the delay time is priory known. By experiment result, presented scheme was verified.

Identification of steady-state is the first step in developing a fault detection and diagnosis (FDD) system. In a complete FDD system, the steady-state detector will be included as a module in a self-learning algorithm which enables the working system's reference model to "tune" itself to its particular installation. In this study, a steady-state detector of a residential air conditioner based on moving windows was designed. Seven representing measurements were selected as key features for steady-state detection. The optimized moving window size and the feature thresholds was suggested through startup transient test and no-fault steady-state test. Performance of the steady-state detector was verified during indoor load change test. From the research, the general methodology to design a moving window steady-state detector was provided for vapor compression applications.
