A prerequisite for the feasibility of the technique of observer-based fault detection and
isolation (FDI) in dynamic systems is a satisfactory robustness with respect to modelling …

Coffee, a major dietary source of caffeine, is among the most widely consumed beverages in
the world and has received considerable attention regarding health risks and benefits. We …

The paper reviews the state of the art of fault detection and isolation in automatic processes
using analytical redundancy, and presents some new results. It outlines the principles and …

The paper outlines recent advances of the theory of observer-based fault diagnosis in
dynamic systems towards the design of robust techniques of residual generation and residual …

In this paper the state of the art of model-based fault diagnosis in plants of automatic control
systems is reviewed and some new results of the author's research group are outlined. …

Owing to the superiority of Dynamic Time Warping as a similarity measure of time series, it
can become an effective tool for fault diagnosis in chemical process plants. However, direct …

The goal of the research reported here is to develop rigorous optimization algorithms to
apply to some engineering design problems for which direct application of traditional …

Takagi-Sugeno (TS) fuzzy models (1985, 1992) can provide an effective representation of
complex nonlinear systems in terms of fuzzy sets and fuzzy reasoning applied to a set of linear …

Ruth Loos and colleagues report findings from a meta-analysis of multiple studies examining
the extent to which physical activity attenuates effects of a specific gene variant, FTO, on …
