Abstract: A classifier capable of predicting if cylinder valves of an engine commanded to activate or deactivate failed to activate or deactivate respectively. In various embodiments, the classifier can be binary or multi-class Logistic Regression, or a Multi-Layer Perceptron (MLP) classifier. The variable displacement engine can operate in cooperation with a variable displacement engine using cylinder deactivation (CDA) or skip fire, including dynamic skip fire and/or multi-level skip fire.

Abstract: Using machine learning for cylinder misfire detection in a dynamic firing level modulation controlled internal combustion engine is described. In a classification embodiment, cylinder misfires are differentiated from intentional skips based on a measured exhaust manifold pressure. In a regressive model embodiment, the measured exhaust manifold pressure is compared to a predicted exhaust manifold pressure generated by neural network in response to one or more inputs indicative of the operation of the vehicle. Based on the comparison, a prediction is made if a misfire has occurred or not. In yet other alternative embodiment, angular crank acceleration is used as well for misfire detection.

Abstract: Using machine learning for misfire detection in a Dynamic firing level modulation controlled internal combustion engine is described. A neural network is used to calculate expected crank acceleration from various inputs, including the dynamically defined cylinder skip fire sequence. The output of the neural network is then compared to a signal indicative of the measured crank acceleration. Based the comparison, a prediction is made if a misfire has occurred or not. In alternative embodiment, the neural network is expanded to include the measured crank acceleration as an additional input. With the latter embodiment, the neural network is arranged to directly predict misfire events.
