Abstract

The focus of the current work attempts to propose a purely data-based model for generating residuals for non-Gaussian process monitoring purposes, the idea of residual generation is borrowed from the field of model-based fault detection and applied in statistical monitoring, the generated residual instead of the measured variables is thus modeled and monitored. The proposed approach first employs the modified independent component analysis (MICA) algorithm to extract independent components (ICs) from a given dataset. Secondly, through assuming but only one variable is missing at one time, the known data regression (KDR) method dealing with missing data problem is then used for estimating the corresponding ICs. The inconsistency between the actual and estimated ICs is called residual and may present much lower level of non-Gaussianity, in contrast to the actual ICs. Thirdly, a principal component analysis based statistical monitoring model can be utilized for online fault detection based on the generated residual. Finally, the superiority and efficiency of the MICA-KDR approach over its counterparts are validated by implementing comparisons on two industrial processes, the proposed MICA-KDR method is demonstrated to be a comparative alternative in monitoring non-Gaussian processes
