Sensor Placement for Fault Diagnosis Using Genetic Algorithm

This paper presents a novel methodology for the purpose of fault detection and isolation (FDI) to a two–tank system. This new methodology benefits from the basic facts that faults are embedded in the analytical redundancy relations (ARRs) and that the occurrence of a fault will cause the corresponding ARRs to change. Based on these facts, the minimal isolation set as an important concept is introduced to make each fault in the fault set F …
