New fault detection method based on reduced kernel principal component analysis (RKPCA). Issue 5 (July 2016) - Taouali, Okba
Abstract This paper proposes a new method for fault detection using a reduced kernel principal component analysis (RKPCA). The proposed RKPCA method consists on approximating the retained principal components given by the KPCA method by a set of observation vectors which point to the directions of the largest variances with the retained principal components. The proposed method has been tested on a chemical reactor and the results were satisfactory.
