Abstract
The rapid advancements of internet of things (IoT) technology and cyber-physical infrastructure have resulted in a temporally and spatially dense data-rich environment, which provides unprecedented opportunities for performance improvement in various complex systems. Meanwhile, it also raises new research challenges on data analysis and decision making, such as heterogeneous data formats, high-dimensional and big data structures, inherent complexity of the target systems, and potential lack of complete a priori knowledge. In this talk, two research topics will be discussed in detail to elaborate the needs of developing multidisciplinary data fusion and analytics methods for effective online monitoring and prognostics by harnessing the power of Big Data. The first topic introduces a generic data-level fusion methodology, which is capable of integrating multiple sensor signals to effectively visualize and continuously model the evolution of a unit’s health status for degradation modeling and prognostic analysis. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first work that provides the theoretical analysis of the data fusion method for degradation modeling and prognostics. The methodology will be tested and validated through a degradation dataset of aircraft gas turbine engines. In the second topic, a dynamic and adaptive sampling algorithm will be introduced to actively decide which data streams should be observed to maximize the anomaly detection capability subject to the practical resource constraints. Two theoretical properties on the sampling layout of the proposed algorithm are investigated when the process is in control and out of control. Comprehensive simulations and real case studies will be provided to illustrate the effectiveness of the proposed method over existing techniques. In addition, various other examples will be demonstrated by using the proposed methods if time allows.
