The need to take into account the increasing requirements for expanding the field of application conditions, taking into account an increasingly wide range of possible conditions, increasing requirements for the volume and reliability of the information used, combined with increasing requirements for improving the efficiency of operation, predetermined the emergence of a new type of information management systems, called "complex technical systems" (CTS). In general, the CTS is understood as a set of functionally related control and information subsystems united by a common goal of joint solution of a group of tasks. The most striking example of CTS is aviation radio control (RC) systems, which are able to solve the general task of destroying targets in several stages, using various methods of route control and guidance on them in conditions of high initial uncertainty due to a variety of possible objects of influence of varying degrees of importance and the random nature of their spatial location. At the same time, the task of destroying objects of the opposing side is solved, as a rule, in several stages, including long-range (command), short-range guidance (homing) and the use of weapons. It should be emphasized that the choice of indicators of excellence that reflect various aspects of the functioning of the CTS (aircraft RC systems) is by no means a trivial task. Within the framework of the "system – environment" approach, which takes into account the specific conditions of the use of the CTS, in addition to performance indicators that reflect the degree of compliance of the system with its purpose, such indicators as functional stability (survivability), dynamism and informativeness are increasingly in demand, which, as a rule, contradict each other. It should be noted that due to the heterogeneity of the tasks being solved and the inconsistency of the requirements, it is necessary to take into account the need to use a multicriteria approach to the synthesis of control methods and information support algorithms. However, the methods of multicriteria optimization used in practice have a number of significant drawbacks that make it difficult to use them in the development of promising CTS (RC systems). At the same time, it is very tempting to use the mathematical apparatus of the statistical theory of optimal control (STOC) for multicriteria optimization of the CTS, which allows to avoid the above disadvantages to some extent. The expediency of using STOC for solving multicriteria problems is due to the fact that the very formulation of the STOC problem and the resulting optimization procedures already contain a solution to the two-criterion problem of obtaining a system that is jointly the best in both accuracy and costeffectiveness of management. The analysis of various approaches to solving multicriteria problems has shown that the most rational is to reduce them to a singlecriteria problem with further use as a basic variant of local STOC optimization.

The article highlights the different aspects of complex technical systems that can be ordered and classified in accordance with the totality, structure and values of the attributes characterizing these systems by a unified approach to various types of classifications. The most complex classifiers studied in this work are hierarchical-matrix, cyclic and zonal classifiers. Zones are the areas identified in the space of classification attributes that characterized by a similar value of an additional target classification attribute. The dimension of the zonal classification is equal to the number of descriptive classification attributes, the zonal dimension is equal to the number of zones. Adding the zones is carried out according to the target classification criterion, multiplying the zones consists in introducing the new descriptive classification attributes. Cyclicity is repetition of the similar elements that occurs in the space of physical quantities or other parameters. The concept of cycle stages is defined for all cycles, which is a specific (target) classification attribute. The internal dimension of the cycle is equal to the number of stages, the external dimension is equal to the number of acts of the cycle, the descriptive dimension is equal to the number of descriptive classification attributes. Addition of cycles can be carried out both by stages and by descriptive features and consists in increasing the number of values of classification attribute. Multiplication of cycles consists in the introduction of new descriptive classification attributes. Zonal and cyclic classifiers are widely used in the practice of describing and planning technical energy systems. A wide range of classifiers ordered from the standpoint of a unified formal theory of classification will take into account the features of specific technical systems, the conditions for the objects functioning, the context of the interpretation area. As a re-sult, the degree of adequacy of classifiers to the diversity of the interpretation area objects and the representativeness of models based on classifiers will increase

A large number of different publications in the field of functional stability of complex technical systems and in the field of artificial intelligence, namely neural networks, determines the need for analysis of results and their understanding in terms of assessing the feasibility of combining these areas. The characteristics of the behavior of complex technical systems that implement the property of functional stability of these systems are studied in the work. The article presents the definition of functionally stable production process of industrial enterprises and the criterion for ensuring its functional stability. Ensuring the functional stability of production processes is an important issue today. At present, many different methods have been proposed to ensure a high level of functional stability, but they need to be constantly changed and improved. Neural networks are a tool that allows you to create a deep hierarchy of decisions based on the location, type and level of the defect that occurred in the control system and, as a consequence, can be effectively used to solve this problem. Therefore, the article considers the features of the main provisions of the theory of artificial intelligence, namely neural networks, to ensure the functional stability of production processes of industrial enterprises. Based on the analysis, the article explores the possibilities of using neural networks to diagnose the state of systems and the practical application of neural network tools to detect and localize defects in systems, which is the key to ensuring the functional stability of production processes. The method of ensuring the properties of functional stability of the enterprise information system has been improved. Promising ways of further research in this area may be a wide range of issues related to the development of new and improvement of existing methods of ensuring the functional stability of production processes of enterprises, including means of artificial intelligence.

The article analyzes a number of methods of knowledge formation using various graph models, including oriented, undirected graphs with the same type of edges and graphs with multiple and different types of edges. This article shows the possibilities of using graphs to represent a three-level structure of knowledge in the field of complex technical systems modeling. In such a model, at the first level, data is formed in the form of unrelated graph vertices, at the second level – information presented by a related undirected graph, and at the third level – knowledge in the form of a set of graph paths. The proposed interpretation of the structure of knowledge allows to create new opportunities for analytical study of knowledge and information, their properties and relationships.

Authors explore issue of applicability of the methodology of building diagnostic software using network formal models in the functional testing of electronic equipment as part of complex technical systems. Using methods of system analysis allows to perform a decomposition of interdependent subsystems and to reveal basic acts of interaction between the control‑verification equipment and the object of diagnosis. Mathematical apparatus of Petri nets should be employed for the formalized description of such acts and determined the cause‑and‑effect relations in the diagnosed complex system`s processes. Network models properties studying (such as safety and accomplishment of the final positions) allows us to move to the test object`s algorithm`s developing. The article presents an approach of a formalized description for basic acts of interaction between the diagnosis system and the object.
