A distributed expectation maximization-principal component analysis monitoring scheme for the large-scale industrial process with incomplete information by Xuanyue Wang, Xu Yang, Jian Huang, Xianzhong Chen

“…To avoid this, a distributed expectation maximization-principal component analysis scheme is proposed in this paper, where the process variables are first divided into several sub-blocks using two-layer process decomposition method, based on knowledge and generalized Dice’s coefficient. Then, the missing information of variables is estimated by expectation maximization algorithm in the principal component analysis framework, then the expectation maximization-principal component analysis method is applied for fault detection to each sub-block. …”
