  • Patent number: 11874652
    Abstract: An AI-based anomaly signatures warning recommendation system is provided. The system includes a memory having computer-readable instructions stored therein and a processor configured to execute the computer-readable instructions to access a multi-asset connected system having a plurality of production and/or process lines. Each of the plurality of production lines includes a plurality of assets. The processor is configured to access production data corresponding to a plurality of products manufactured in each of the plurality of production lines and to access sensor signal data corresponding to each of the plurality of assets. The sensor signal data is indicative of health of each of the plurality of assets. The processor is further configured to process the production data and sensor signal data for each of the plurality of assets to identify one or more anomaly instances and to perform similarity analysis on the one or more anomaly instances to identify one or more anomaly signatures.

  • Patent number: 11567926
    Abstract: A spurious outlier detection-system is provided. The system includes a memory having computer-readable instructions stored therein and a processor configured to execute the computer-readable instructions to receive time-series data from one or more sensors and/or applications, process the time-series data to detect one or more change points based on a pre-defined cost function. The processor is configured to identify data chunks between the change points using pre-determined window sizes and to estimate smooth reconstructed values (SRVs) for each of the change point data chunks between two consecutive change points to identify one or more global outliers from the SRVs. The processor is configured to determine distribution of the global outliers using kernel density for each change point data chunk and identify one or more true outliers from the distribution of the global outliers based upon a skewness of the distribution.

  • Patent number: 10218247
    Abstract: An electric pump powered by an electric motor having a stator disposed within a hollow rotor is provided. Impellers on the rotor outer surface extend into a fluid flow path defined by the pump. One or more torque-producing rotor sections are driven by a plurality of independently controllable stator sections disposed within the rotor cavity. The relative positions of the rotor and stator are maintained by a plurality of bearings configured to allow rotation of the rotor and defining a bearing span. The pump is configured such that the stator and rotor share the same bearing span. Such an arrangement reduces motor windage losses relative to conventional motors in which the rotor is disposed within the stator, owing to a reduction in the diameter of the air gap between the stator and the rotor. In addition, the peripheral speed of the pump is increased owing to an increase in the rotor diameter.
