Abstract:     A system and method for diagnosing and validating a machine over a network using waveform data. Historical waveform data are obtained via the network from machines having known faults along with corresponding actions for repairing the machines and are used to develop fault classification rules. The fault classification rules are stored in a diagnostic knowledge database. The database of classification rules are used to diagnose new waveform data from a machine having an unknown fault, via the network.

First Claim:
Show all 35 claims
What is claimed is:     1. A system for diagnosing a machine from a remote facility over a network, comprising:
  • a diagnostic knowledge base containing a plurality of rules for diagnosing faults in a machine and a plurality of corrective actions for repairing the faults;
  • a diagnostic fault detector for categorizing waveform data generated from the machine as normal and faulty data, wherein the machine is connected to the remote facility over the network;
  • a diagnostic feature extractor for extracting a plurality of features from the waveform data categorized as faulty data; and
  • a diagnostic fault isolator coupled to the diagnostic feature extractor and the diagnostic knowledge base for isolating a candidate set of faults for the extracted features and identifying root causes most likely responsible for the candidate set of faults.
