“…As one of the most widely used techniques in probabilistic inference, Bayesian method has found its application in numerous diagnosis problems (Dey and Stori, 2005;Huang, 2008;Pernestal, 2007). A Bayesian control loop diagnosis framework has been established by Huang (2008), and following the framework, numerous studies have been conducted (Qi and Huang, 2011;Qi et al, 2010); however, to incorporate this Bayesian diagnosis system into MSPM, several issues need to be addressed; for instance, how to generate efficient fault signature evidence and how to select the most important evidence sources.…”
