Publication IV proposes a hybrid methodology for non-linear causal analysis based on non-parametric multiplicative regression (NPMR) for detecting the propagation path of disturbances in control loops. The estimator is applied to both pairwise and multivariate estimations while the connectivity information is automatically integrated into the analysis by utilizing the search algorithm. Outside of the thesis scope are fault detection analysis, corrective actions such as
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.
