Title
Adaptive Mamdani fuzzy model for condition-based maintenance
Abstract
Proper maintenance of equipment to prevent failures has become increasingly important. For manufacturing companies, it enables uninterrupted production to support lean manufacturing. For commercial carriers, it ensures the safety of passengers and crew members. Maintenance technology has progressed from time-based to condition-based. The idea of condition-based maintenance (CBM) is to monitor equipment using various sensors to enable real-time diagnosis of impending failures and prognosis of equipment health. The success of CBM hinges on the ability to develop accurate diagnosis/prognosis models. These models must be cognitive friendly for them to gain user acceptance, especially in safety critical applications. This paper presents a neuro-fuzzy modeling approach for CBM. The emphasis is on model comprehensibility so it can effectively serve as a decision-aid for domain experts. The comprehensibility of a neuro-fuzzy system usually deteriorates once rules are tuned. To solve this problem, Kullback-Leibler mean information is used to evaluate and refine tuned rules so they remain easily interpretable. The effectiveness of this modeling approach is demonstrated via a couple of real-world applications.
