Description
Summary:In this study, a system for faults detection using a combination of Support Vector Data Description (SVDD) with metaheuristic algorithms is presented. The presented approach is applied to a real industrial process where the set of measured faults is scarce. The original contribution in this work is the industrial context of application and the comparison of swarm intelligence algorithms to optimize the SVDD hyper-parameters. Four recent metaheuristics are compared hereby to solve the corresponding optimization problem in an efficient manner. These optimization techniques are then implemented for fault detection in a multivariate industrial process with non-balanced data. The obtained numerical results seem to be promising when the considered optimization techniques are combined with SVDD. In particular, the Spotted Hyena algorithm outperforms other metaheuristics reaching values of F1 score near 100% in fault detection.
