Abstract
Process monitoring is an essential part of industrial systems. It requires higher product quality and safety operations. Therefore, a nonlinear data-driven approach based reduced KPCA (RKPCA) for statistical monitoring of industrial processes is developed. RKPCA is a novel machine learning tool which merges dimensionality reduction and supervised learning. The use of classical KPCA for modeling and monitoring purposes can impose a high computational load when a large number of measurements are recorded. The main idea of the proposed RKPCA approach is to reduce the number of observations (samples) in the data matrix using the Euclidean distance between samples as dissimilarity metric so that only one observation is kept in case of redundancy. The Tennessee Eastman Process (TEP) is used to evaluate the fault detection abilities of the proposed RKPCA technique. The performance of the proposed method is evaluated and compared to the classical KPCA in terms of false alarms rates (FAR), missed detection rates (MDR) and computation times (CT).
