  • Publication number: 20220155770
    Abstract: The invent relates to an intelligent fault monitoring method based on high-order information enhanced recurrent neural network, for real-time fault monitoring of sewage treatment process. The invent includes two phases of offline modeling and online monitoring. In offline phase, the original data is extracted into high-dimensional high-order information features using OCIA, which can effectively deal with the non Gaussian feature of the data and solve the correlation between variables. Then the extracted features are trained by DRNN. In the online phase, the data are directly mapped to new high-order feature components, and to be discriminated in category by the DRNN network after trained offline. If there is no fault, then the results get into the monitoring model composed of simple OICA for unsupervised monitoring. If no fault is detected, it is determined that there is no fault in the process.
