Item Enhancing Fault Detection in Stochastic Environments Using Interval-Valued KPCA: A Cement Rotary Kiln Case Study(Institute of Electrical and Electronics, 2025) Louifi, Abdelhalim; Kouadri, Abdelmalek; Harkat, Mohamed-Faouzi; Bensmail, Abderazak; Mansouri, MajdiFault detection in industrial processes is challenging due to significant data uncertainty, which complicates the accurate modeling of interval-valued data and the quantification of errors necessary for reliable detection. Existing approaches, such as kernel principal component analysis (KPCA), struggle with these challenges because they rely on single-valued data representations and are unable to effectively handle interval-based variability. To address these limitations, this paper introduces the interval-valued model KPCA (IV-KPCA), which extends KPCA by redefining similarity measures and kernel functions to accommodate interval-valued uncertainty. IV-KPCA preserves the interval structure throughout the modeling process, enhancing robustness to dynamic uncertainties and improving fault detection in complex nonlinear systems. Within this framework, fault detection statistics (T 2 , Q, and 8) are developed to enable precise error quantification. The proposed method is validated on a cement rotary kiln process, a highly stochastic industrial system characterized by significant uncertainties. Experimental results demonstrate that IV-KPCA reduces false alarms, missed detections, and detection delays by over 100%, 90%, and 95%, respectively, compared to traditional methods. These findings underscore the potential of IV-KPCA in enhancing fault detection performance in complex, uncertain environmentsItem Sensor Fault Detection in Uncertain Large-Scale Systems Using Interval-Valued PCA Technique(IEEE, 2025) Louifi, Abdelhalim; Kouadri, Abdelmalek; Harkat, Mohamed-FaouziPrincipal component analysis (PCA)-based fault detection and diagnosis (FDD) is a well-established, data- driven method that has shown remarkable performance. Despite the excellent reputation of the PCA, it is not an opti- mal solution, mainly due to the effect of system parameters’ uncertainties and imprecise measurements. These drasti- cally affect the decision-making concerning the operating state of the process. In this article, the data collected by different sensors are transformed from a single value to an interval value form by which errors and uncertainties in the measurements are quantified satisfactorily. Then, the process modeling based on the PCA technique has been duly performed for interval-valued. Afterward, the well-known fault detection statistics T 2 , Q, and 8 are obtained under an interval-valued representation. The developed technique is tested in the cement rotary kiln process. Its performance in terms of false and missed alarms and detection delay is compared with that of other techniques through an actual involuntary system fault and other different types of sensor faults. The obtained results show high superiority in detecting accurately and quickly distinct faults in a stochastic environment, including unknown and uncontrolled uncertainties. Consequently, the results have been reduced by more than 33%, 85%, and 45% for T 2 , Q, and 8, respectively, compared with the best results of the studied methods.Item Improving kernel PCA-based algorithm for fault detection in nonlinear industrial process through fractal dimension(Institution of Chemical Engineers, 2023) Kaib, Mohammed Tahar Habib; Kouadri, Abdelmalek; Harkat, Mohamed Faouzi; Bensmail, Abderazak; Mansouri, MajdiPrincipal Component Analysis (PCA) is a widely used technique for fault detection and diagnosis. PCA works well when the data set has linear characteristics. However, most industrial processes have nonlinear characteristics in their data. Kernel PCA (KPCA) is an alternative solution for such types of data sets. This solution doesn’t come without a cost since one of KPCA’s disadvantages is a large number of observations which results in more occupied storage space and more execution time than the PCA technique. Furthermore, if the data is too large it may minimize the monitoring performance of the KPCA model. Reduced KPCA (RKPCA) is a solution for the conventional KPCA limitations. Firstly, RKPCA can deal with nonlinear characteristics without crucial problems because it is based on the KPCA algorithm with a data reduction part where it keeps most of the data’s infor- mation. Thus, by reducing the number of observations RKPCA reduces the occupied storage space and execution time while preserving tolerable monitoring performance. The proposed RKPCA algorithm consists of two parts. First, the large-sized training data set is reduced using the fractal dimension technique (correlation dimension). Afterward, the KPCA model is developed through the obtained reduced training data set. The proposed scheme is applied to the Tennessee Eastman Process and the Cement Plant Rotary Kiln data sets to evaluate its performance in comparison with other algorithms.Item RKPCA-based approach for fault detection in large scale systems using variogram method(Elsevier, 2022) Kaib, Mohammed Tahar Habib; Kouadri, Abdelmalek; Harkat, Mohamed Faouzi; Bensmail, AbderazakPrincipal Component Analysis (PCA)-based approach for fault detection is a simple and accurate data-driven technique for feature extraction and selection. However, PCA performs poorly if the data used has nonlinear characteristics where this type of data is widely present in most industrial processes. To overcome this drawback, Kernel PCA (KPCA) is an alternative technique used to work on this type of data but it requires more computation time and memory storage space for large-sized data sets. Many size reduction techniques have been developed to select the most relevant observations that will be employed by KPCA. This, known as Reduced KPCA (RKPCA), consequently requires less computation time and memory storage space than KPCA. Besides, it possesses the advantages of both KPCA and standard PCA. In this paper, a reduction in the size of a data set based on a multivariate variogram is proposed. According to its conventional formalism, the uncorrelated observations are selected and kept to form a reduced training data set. Afterward, the KPCA model is built through this data set for faults detection purposes. The proposed RKPCA scheme is tested using an actual involuntary process fault and various simulated sensor faults in a cement plant. Compared to other RKPCA techniques, the developed one yields better resultsItem Shading fault detection in a grid-connected PV system using vertices principal component analysis(Elsevier, 2021) Rouani, Lahcene; Harkat, Mohamed Faouzi; Kouadri, Abdelmalek; Mekhilef, SaadPartial shading severely impacts the performance of the photovoltaic (PV) system by causing power losses and creating hotspots across the shaded cells or modules. Proper detection of shading faults serves not only in harvesting the desired power from the PV system, which helps to make solar power a reliable renewable source, but also helps promote solar versus other fossil fuel electricity-generation options that prevent making climate change targets (e.g. 2015’s Paris Agreement) achievable. This work focuses primarily on detecting partial shading faults using the vertices principal component analysis (VPCA), a data-driven method that combines the simplicity of its linear model and the ability to consider the uncertainties of the different measurements of a PV system in an interval format. Data from a gridconnected monocrystalline PV array, installed on the rooftop of the Power Electronics and Renewable Energy Research Laboratory (PEARL), University of Malaya, Malaysia, have been used to train the VPCA model. To prove the effectiveness of this VPCA method, four partial shading patterns have been created. The obtained performance has, then, been tested against a regular PCA. In addition to its ability to acknowledge the uncertainty of a PV system, the VPCA method has shown an enhanced performance of detecting partial shading fault in comparison with the standard PCA. Also, included in the article is an extension of the contribution plot diagnosis-based method, of the Q-statistic, to the interval-valued case aiming to pinpoint the out-of-control variables.Item Kernelized relative entropy for direct fault detection in industrial rotary kilns(John Wiley and Sons Ltd, 2018) Hamadouche, Anis; Kouadri, Abdelmalek; Bensmail, AbderazakThe objective of this work is to use a 1-dimensional signal that reflects the dissimilarity between multidimensional probability densities for detection. With the modified Kullback-Leibler divergence, faults can be directly detected without any normality assumption or joint monitoring of related test statistics in different subspaces such as the T2 and SPE in principal component analysis–based methods. To relieve the difficulty associated with asymptotic high-dimensional density estimates, we have estimated the density ratio rather than the densities themselves. This can be done by approximating the density ratio with kernel basis functions and learn the weights from the available data. The developed algorithm is generic and can be applied to any industrial system as long as process historical data is available. As a case study, we apply this algorithm to a real rotary kiln in operation, which is an integral part of the cement manufacturing plant of Ain El Kebira, Algeria.Item A modified moving window dynamic PCA with fuzzy logic filter and application to fault detection(Elsevier, 2018) Ammiche, Mustapha; Kouadri, Abdelmalek; Bensmail, AbderazakItem A statistical procedure based on wavelets for fault detection applied on the three tank system(Taylor & Francis, 2010) Kouadri, Abdelmalek; Zelmat, MimounItem An improved plant-wide fault detection scheme based on PCA and adaptive threshold for reliable process monitoring : application on the new revised model of Tennessee Eastman process(Wiley, 2017) Bakdi, Azzeddine; Kouadri, AbdelmalekItem Fault detection and diagnosis in a cement rotary kiln using PCA with EWMA-based adaptive threshold monitoring scheme(Elsevier, 2017) Bakdi, Azzeddine; Kouadri, Abdelmalek; Bensmail, Abderazak
