Neural networks are commonly recognized tools for the classification of multidimensional data obtained in structural health monitoring (SHM) systems. Their configuration for a given scenario is, however, a challenging task, which limits the possibilities of their practical applications. In this article the authors propose using the neural network ensemble approach for the classification of SHM data generated by guided wave sensor networks. The overproduce and choose strategy is used for designing ensembles containing different types and sizes of neural networks. The proposed method allows for a significant increase of the state assessment reliability, which is illustrated by the results obtained from the practical industrial case of a full-scale aircraft test. The method is verified in the process of detecting fatigue cracks propagating in the aircraft load-carrying structure. The long-term experiments are performed in variable environmental conditions with a net of structure-embedded piezoelectric sensors.
