A multi-sensor fault diagnosis algorithm based on an mth-order Markov information source model and its applications
摘要
In the context of industrial intelligence, equipment faults are becoming increasingly complex. Accurate diagnosis is difficult to achieve with a single sensor, making multi-sensor data fusion a key technology. Dempster–Shafer theory (DST) is widely used in multi-source information fusion due to its advantages in processing uncertain information. However, traditional DST methods are mostly based on static modeling assumptions, making it difficult to dynamically capture the variation of sensor reliability in complex environments. This can easily lead to evidence conflicts, thus reducing diagnostic accuracy. To address this issue, this paper combines the modeling capability of Markov chains for dynamic stochastic processes with the advantages of DST in evidence fusion, proposing a novel fault diagnosis algorithm based on an
