Novel Discriminant Locality Preserving Projections based on improved Synthetic Minority Oversampling with Application to Fault Diagnosis

Abstract

Nowadays, chemical processes are becoming more complex, and so the safety requirement is getting higher and higher. Intelligent and effective fault detection and diagnosis are becoming more and more important. However, complex industrial systems generate high-dimensional data, which has bad influence on fault detection and diagnosis. Thus, it is necessary to handle industrial data with high dimensionality. Discriminant Locality Preserving Projections (DLPP) has attracted much interest as a dimensionality reduction method. However, there is a small size sample problem when the data dimension is higher than the number of data classes. Under this condition, DLPP cannot achieve acceptable performance in reducing data dimension. In order to solve this problem, this paper proposes a novel DLPP based on improved Synthetic Minority Oversampling Technique (SMOTE-DLPP). The improved SMOTE is used to sample the original data set to generate new data sets so that the number of data classes is basically the same as the number of data dimension. Simulation results on the Tennessee Eastman process (TEP) show that the proposed SMOTE-DLPP can achieve acceptable performance in fault diagnosis.
