AbstractThis paper presents fault diagnosis and problem solving under uncertainty by a Bayesian supported knowledge-intensive case-based reasoning (CBR) system called BNCreek. In this system, the main goal is to diagnose the causal failures behind the symptoms in complex and uncertain domains. The system’s architecture is described in three aspects: the general, structural, and functional architectures. The domain knowledge is represented by formally defined methods. An integration of semantic networks, Bayesian networks, and CBR is employed to deal with the domain uncertainty. An experiment is conducted from the oil well drilling domain, which is a complex and uncertain area as an application domain. The system is evaluated against the expert estimations to find the most efficient solutions for the problems. The obtained results reveal the capability of the system in diagnosing causal failures.

AbstractThis paper presents the inference and reasoning methods in a Bayesian supported knowledge-intensive case-based reasoning (CBR) system called BNCreek. The inference and reasoning process in this system is a combination of three methods. The semantic network inference methods and the CBR method are employed to handle the difficulties of inferencing and reasoning in uncertain domains. The Bayesian network inference methods are employed to make the process more accurate. An experiment from oil well drilling as a complex and uncertain application domain is conducted. The system is evaluated against expert estimations and compared with seven other corresponding systems. The normalized discounted cumulative gain (NDCG) as a rank-based metric, the weighted error (WE), and root-square error (RSE) as the statistical metrics are employed to evaluate different aspects of the system capabilities. The results show the efficiency of the developed inference and reasoning methods.

A novel adaptation approach for electromagnetic device optimizationThe ability of case-based reasoning systems to solve new problems mainly depends on their case adaptation knowledge and adaptation strategies. In order to carry out a successful case adaptation in our case-based reasoning system for a low frequency electromagnetic device design, we make use of semantic networks to organize related domain knowledge, and then construct a rule-based inference system which is based on the network. Furthermore, based on the inference system, a novel adaptation algorithm is proposed to derive a new device case from a real-world induction motor case-base with high dimensionality.

The CNC system is a complex mechatronics system, which make it difficult to diagnose fault. Expert system for fault diagnosis that utilizes domain knowledge and the profiles of experts to fix the problem of the complex system has become an important issue. A hybrid expert fault system combining the rule-base reasoning (RBR) with case-based reasoning (CBR) for CNC system is proposed. The combination can trouble-shoot rapidly, improve the CNC system reliability and maintainability. The hybrid system is implemented by using QT and SQLITE database. The experiment result of the system shows that the system diagnosis efficiently and accurately.

Based on the authors previous work of developing an expert system for fault diagnosis of CNC machine tool, this paper studied the theory and method of CNC remote fault diagnosis expert system based on B/S, and presents schema and structure of the expert system in detailed. Case based reasoning is used for the multi-alarm diagnosis, and rule based reasoning is used for single-alarm diagnosis. At last fault diagnosis expert system was designed and developed making use of C# and ASP.NET.

In Discrete Event System, such as railway onboard system, overwhelming volume of textual data is recorded in the form of repair verbatim collected during the fault diagnosis process. Efficient text mining of such maintenance data plays an important role in discovering the best-practice repair knowledge from millions of repair verbatims, which help to conduct accurate fault diagnosis and predication. This paper presents a text case-based reasoning framework by cloud computing, which uses the diagnosis ontology for annotating fault features recorded in the repair verbatim. The extracted fault features are further reduced by rough set theory. Finally, the case retrieval is employed to search the best-practice repair actions for fixing faulty parts. By cloud computing, rough set-based attribute reduction and case retrieval are able to scale up the Big Data records and improve the efficiency of fault diagnosis and predication. The effectiveness of the proposed method is validated through a fault diagnosis of train onboard equipment.

It is the complex structure of the armoured equipment that determines the traditional organizations of the case-warehouse cannot direct the case-based reasoning effectively. Adopting the way to analyse failure mode before the case-warehouse organizations, suming up for the classification. Building the apart index mechanism and establishing the basis of the effective organizations of the case-warehouse at last.
