Sensor faults in nuclear power plant instrumentation have the potential to spread negative effects from wrong signals that can cause an accident misdiagnosis by plant operators. To detect sensor faults and make accurate accident diagnoses, prior studies have developed a supervised learning-based sensor fault detection model and an accident diagnosis model with faulty sensor isolation. Even though the developed neural network models demonstrated satisfactory performance, their diagnosis performance should be reevaluated considering real-time connection. When operating in real-time, the diagnosis model is expected to indiscriminately accept fault data before receiving delayed fault information transferred from the previous fault detection model. The uncertainty of neural networks can also have a significant impact following the sensor fault features. In the present work, a pilot study was conducted to connect two models and observe actual outcomes from a real-time application with an integrated system. While the initial results showed an overall successful diagnosis, some issues were observed. To recover the diagnosis performance degradations, additive logics were applied to minimize the diagnosis failures that were not observed in the previous validations of the separate models. The results of a case study were then analyzed in terms of the real-time diagnosis outputs that plant operators would actually face in an emergency situation.

Spin coaters are the essential instruments in micro-fabrication processes, which apply uniform thin films to flat substrates. In this research, a spin coater diagnosis system is developed to detect the abnormal operation of TFT-LCD process in real time. To facilitate the real-time data acquisition and analysis, the circular-buffered continuous data transfer and the short-time Fourier transform are applied to the fault diagnosis system. To determine whether the system condition is normal or not, a steady-state detection algorithm and a frequency spectrum comparison algorithm using confidence interval are newly devised. Since abnormal condition of a spin coater is rarely encountered, algorithm is tested on a CD-ROM drive and the developed program is verified by a function generator. Actual threshold values for the fault detection are tuned in a spin coater in process.

상·하수도 시스템은 사람들에게 안전하고 깨끗한 물을 공급해주는 사회기반시설이며, 특히 상·하수도 관로는 지중에 매설되어 있기 때문에 시스템의 결함검출이 매우 어렵다. 이러한 이유로 상·하수도 관로의 진단은 관로 내부에 카메라 및 드론을 통한 촬영을 하여 사후에 촬영된 영상을 바탕으로 시스템 진단하는 등의 사후 결함검출로 제한되기 때문에, 작업자의 업무 효율 증대와 진단의 신속성을 위해서는 관로의 실시간 탐지기술이 필요하다. 최근 첨단장비 및 인공지능 기법을 활용한 시설물 진단 기술이 개발되고 있지만, 인공지능기반 결함검출 기술은 결함 데이터의 종류 및 형태, 수가 검출 성능에 영향을 주기 때문에 다양한 학습데이터가 필요하다. 따라서, 본 연구에서는 상·하수도 관로의 결함검출 시 탐지 성능 향상을 위해 다양한 결함 시나리오를 3D 프린트를 이용하여 구현하고 이를 수집된 결함 데이터와 함께 학습데이터로 사용한다. 이후 수집된 이미지는 위험도에 따른 분류 및 객체의 라벨링 등의 전처리 작업이 수행되고 실시간 결함탐지를 수행한다. 제안된 기법은 상·하수도시스템 결함검출 시 실시간 피드백을 제공함으로써, 작업자의 진단 누락 가능성을 최소화하며 기존의 상·하수도관 진단업무 처리능력을 향상할 수 있다.

A large number of wire rope has been used in various inderstiries as Cranes and Elevators from expanding the scale of the industrial market. But now, the management of wire rope is used as manually operated by rope replacement from over time or after the accident.It is caused to major accidents as well as economic losses and personal injury. Therefore its time to need periodic fault diagnosis of wire rope or supply of real-time monitoring system. Currently, there are several methods has been reported for fault diagnosis method of the wire rope, to find out the feature point from extracting method is becoming more common compared to time wave and model-based system. This method has implemented a deterministic modeling like the observer and neural network through considering the state of the system as a deterministic signal. However, the out-put of real system has probability characteristics, and if it is used as a current method on this system, the performance will be decreased at the real time. And if the random noise is occurred from unstable measure/experiment environment in wire rope system, diagnostic criterion becomes unclear and accuracy of diagnosis becomes blurred. Thus, more sophisticated techniques are required rather than deterministic fault diagnosis algorithm. In this paper, we developed the fault diagnosis of the wire rope using probability density estimation techniques algorithm. At first, The steady-state wire rope fault signal detection is defined as the probability model through probability distribution estimate. Wire rope defects signal is detected by a hall sensor in real-time, it is estimated by proposed probability estimation algorithm. we judge whether wire rope has defection or not using the error value from comparing two probability distribution.

Because arrhythmia occurs irregularly, it should be examined for at least 24 hours for accurate diagnosis. For this reason, this paper developed firmware software for arrhythmia detection and prevented consumption of temporal and human resources and enabled continuous management and early diagnosis. Prior to the experiment, the interval between the R peaks of the QRS Complex was calculated using the Pan-Tompkins algorithm. The developed firmware software designed and implemented an algorithm to detect arrhythmia such as tachycardia, bradycardia, ventricular tachycardia, persistent tachycardia, and non-persistent tachycardia, and a data transmission format to monitor the collected data based on BLE. As a result of the experiment, arrhythmia was found in real time according to the change in BPM as designed in this paper. And the data quality for BLE communication was verified by comparing the sensor's serial communication value with the Android application reception value. In the future, wearable devices for real-time arrhythmia detection will be lightweight and developed firmware software will be applied.

Throughout the 20th century, the transition of pig farms from extensive to intensive commercial operations amplified the risk of disease transmission, particularly involving African swine fever (ASF). Real-time temperature monitoring systems have emerged as essential tools for early ASF diagnosis. In this paper, we introduce new real-time temperature monitoring ear tags (RTMEs) modeled after existing ear tag designs. Our crafted Pig-Temp platforms have three primary advantages. First, they can be effortlessly attached to pig ears, ensuring superior compatibility. Second, they enable real-time temperature detection, and the data can be displayed on a personal computer or smartphone application. Furthermore, they demonstrate excellent measurement accuracy, ranging from 98.9% to 99.8% at temperatures between 2.2 and 360℃. A linear regression approach enables fever symptoms associated with ASF to be identified within 3 min using RTMEs. The communication range extends to approximately 12 m (452 m²), enabling measurements from an estimated 75 to 2,260 pigs per gateway. These newly developed Pig-Temp platforms offer singifcant enhancement of early ASF detection.
