Factor analysis process monitoring method based on probabilistic information of variables
can establish probabilistic generative model by the expectation maximum (EM) algorithm. However
traditional FA (ST) index may lead to missed fault alarms by utilizing only expectation information of variables and ignoring variance information of variables that is more representative of uncertainty. The drawback of FA (ST) index was revealed by probabilistic analysis of process variables. Another important part in the modeling process was to determine number of factors
which could preserve most useful process information in the meantime of dimension reducing. A negative log likelihood probability (NLLP) index
which integrated more comprehensive probabilistic information
was proposed to overcome dilemma of insufficient information of traditional monitoring index. For the determination of number of factors
a novel global-local method was introduced so that information explanation ratios of global factors and variables over process information reached convergence simultaneously. Numerical simulation and Tennessee Eastman (TE) process study illustrated effectiveness and superiority of the proposed method.
