Fault diagnosis of nonlinear systems is of great importance in theory and practice, and the parameter estimation method is an effective strategy. Based on the framework of moving horizon estimation, fault parameters are identified by a proposed intelligent optimization algorithm called PSOSA, which could avoid premature convergence of standard particle swarm optimization (PSO) by introducing the probabilistic jumping property of simulated annealing (SA). Simulations on a three-tank system show the effectiveness of this optimization based fault diagnosis strategy.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
