    Abstract: A system and method are provided for identification of a combination of sensors suitable for achieving a set of output requirements, enabling assembly thereof. An arrangement of sensors is assembled according to an optimized sensor set, generated to define at least one sensor channel having a threshold value for at least one quality criterion. The sensor sets are generated by down-selection of the sensor channels from a previously tested set of available channels to a subset mapping to a set of required output states. Assignment of a threshold value for each sensor channel is based on a mapping of the value to a target value of a performance metric.

    Abstract: In an information processing apparatus, an internal variable holding unit holds a smaller number of values of an internal variable than N, the internal variable being sequentially calculated in time series based on sensor data acquired by a sensor data acquisition unit. An internal variable calculation unit calculates the internal variable corresponding to a (j+1)-th time point (j is an integer of one to N−1) based on the sensor data at the (j+1)-th time point and the internal variable corresponding to a j-th time point. A feature calculation unit calculates a feature by extracting a statistical characteristic included in the sensor data from the first time point to the N-th time point based on the internal variable at the N-th time point. A state diagnosis unit makes a diagnosis of a state of the mechanical apparatus based on the feature.

    Abstract: A method includes obtaining data associated with operation of a vehicle and determining a first operational phase of the vehicle based on the data. The method includes identifying a candidate operational phase transition from the first operational phase to a candidate operational phase based on a first portion of the data satisfying a first condition associated with the candidate operational phase, the first portion of the data associated with a first time. The method includes evaluating a second portion of the data based on a second condition associated with the candidate operational phase, the second portion of the data associated with a second time that is subsequent to the first time. The method further includes, based on the second condition being satisfied, generating an operational phase transition indication associated with the first time and that indicates an operational phase transition to the candidate operational phase.

    Abstract: Method for monitoring of a wind power plant operated in variable operating states. Start sensor data is obtained in at least one basic operating state of the machine; based on the start sensor data, a starting model with a rule set for conducting the monitoring is set up, the rule set determining which parameters are to be monitored, in which manner and with which weighting and which sensor data are to be obtained and used for this purpose; a reference SOM is prepared using the rule set with sensor data selected using the rule set and obtained in a reference operating phase of the machine; during a monitoring operating phase, time characteristics of a quantization error of the sensor data selected using the rule set being tracked with respect to the reference SOM, troubleshooting being started if the quantization error meets a criterion which is dictated by the rule set.

    Abstract: A method and apparatus capable of monitoring performance of a process and of the condition of equipment units effecting such process is disclosed. A process model predicated upon mass and energy balancing is developed on the basis of a plurality of generally nonlinear models of the equipment units. At least one or more of such equipment models are characterized by one or more adjustable maintenance parameters. Data relating to mass and energy transfer within the process is collected and is reconciled with the mass and energy characteristics of the process predicted by the model. The condition of the equipment units and process performance may then be inferred by monitoring the values of the maintenance parameters over successive data reconciliation operations.
