Definitions

  • the present invention relates to the diagnosis of faults in systems by means of inferences drawn from the symptoms produced by those faults. Specifically, the invention relates to distributed computations for fault-diagnosis carried out by partitioning the fault- to-symptom causality model of the system into computational domains and by coordinating the diagnoses obtained from the individual domains to produce a global diagnosis for the whole system.
  • the subject matter of the present inventions pertains to the class of fault diagnosis methods known as 'model-based', to denote the fact that they take as their starting point an analytical representation of the underlying Fault Propagation Model that specifies the causal relations between faults and symptoms in the system under consideration.
  • a 'bipartite graph' is a convenient representation of the relationship of the Fault Propagation Model.
  • nodes one for each object that could fail (and thereby become a 'fault')
  • another set of nodes one for each symptom or alarm that can appear in the system.
  • An object-node / is connected to a symptom-node s by a link if failure of object / (i.e., fault f) causes symptom s to be observed (in the case of deterministic causation) or if there is a non-zero probability that fault / causes symptom s to be observed (in the case of probabilistic causation). It is assumed that the probability ⁇ f of the occurrence of each fault / is known and that the occurrences of the different faults are all independent events.
  • the representation of a Fault Propagation Model by a bipartite graph is well-established in the literature.
  • the fault-diagnosis problem can be stated as follows: given that a set S of symptoms has been observed, determine the most probable set or sets of faults F whose occurrence would account for the observed symptoms S. If all faults are equally probable, the 'most probable' hypothesis is one that contains the smallest number of faults. If faults have different probabilities of occurrence, then the probability of occurrence of a given set of faults is the product of the probabilities of faults in the set and the product of the complement of the probabilities of faults not in the set.
  • the task is to determine which of the 2 :'r subsets of the N objects are consistent with all the observed symptoms, and which among them have the highest probability of occurrence. Since the number of possible candidates for solution rises exponentially in N, the procedure of searching for a solution is not scalable, though, in practice, the effort might be reduced by the prior knowledge or assumption that there can be no more than n ⁇ N simultaneous faults in the system (which limits the search to
  • Patent No.5, 661,668, entitled “Apparatus and Method for Analyzing and Correlating Events in a System using a Causality Matrix", issued August 26, 1997 relies on associating a unique 'code' of symptoms with each of the fault-occurrences chosen for consideration in the system.
  • the bipartite graph of the fault-to-symptom mapping is expressed by an MxN matrix F of l's and O's, where M is the number of possible symptoms and N is the number of (independent) objects (which, upon failure, become faults), and the element f ⁇ (in the deterministic case) is given by
  • column j of F is a vector of alarms that is viewed as a "codeword" for faulty .
  • the "codewords" for the different faults must be distinguishable one from another; otherwise, there would be faults that produce identical alarm vectors, which must, hence, be regarded as “equivalent”.
  • the alarm vector instead of working with an entire column as a codeword, it is possible to work with a subset of the rows (symptoms) of F and still maintain the uniqueness of the codewords.
  • the alarm vector either has all zeros or matches one of the codewords exactly.
  • the present invention comprises: (1) a method for partitioning the fault diagnosis problem into 'computational domains' in which the computations can proceed in parallel, (2) a method for determining all the optimal local solutions to the sub-problem in each individual domain in which cross-domain symptoms are ignored, and (3) a method of (a) finding a combination of local solutions, one from each domain, that maximizes the number of cross-domain symptoms explained, such a solution constituting an optimal global solution to the diagnosis problem in case all the cross-domain symptoms have been explained, or (b) in the case where unexplained cross-domain symptoms remain in method 3(a), finding a global solution by supplementing the combination of local solutions chosen in method 3 (a) with additional faults to explain the residual cross-domain symptoms, determining also a bound on the deviation of the solution from optimality.
  • each node of the relation graph corresponds to an object (potential fault), and two nodes are connected by a bi-directional 'relational link' if their corresponding objects, upon failure, produce a symptom in common.
  • a symptom that has a unique fault as its possible cause will not be represented in the relation graph. Since the occurrence of such a symptom at once establishes the occurrence of the corresponding fault, the diagnosis for such symptoms is immediately obtained.
  • the relation graph is partitioned into several 'computational domains', with roughly equal numbers of nodes in each domain, while minimizing the number of relational links that bridge separate domains (which correspond to 'cross-domain' symptoms).
  • Each domain includes only a subset of the objects (which, upon failure, are termed faults) and the symptoms they produce upon failure.
  • Graph partitioning is a well- studied problem of graph theory, for which are various fast algorithms even for graphs with thousands of nodes. See, for example, B. Hendrickson, R. Leland, "A Multilevel Algorithm for Partitioning Graphs", Supercomputing 95, Proceedings of the IEEE/ACM SC95 Conference, 1995.
  • each relational link (which corresponds to one or more symptoms) is assigned a weight equal to the sum, taken over the symptoms represented by the relational link, of the reciprocal of the number of distinct object-pairs that produce each such symptom.
  • This choice of weights is intended as an aid to achieving the objective of minimizing the number of cross-domain symptoms in the partition.
  • the size of each domain (the number of objects assigned to it) is chosen to be the largest value for which computations for the local diagnosis in each domain can be carried out in a reasonable length of time by a centralized algorithm, i.e., one which works with knowledge of the portion of the fault propagation model pertaining to the faults and symptoms in the domain.
  • the number of domains into which the problem needs to be partitioned thus depends on the largest problem size that can be handled in a single domain.
  • the relation graph that is sought to be partitioned into loosely- coupled domains corresponds to the actual observed symptoms in each scenario of the occurrence of faults and symptoms. Owing to the randomness in occurrences of faults, one expects, on the whole, that such an adaptive partitioning of the realized graph, matching the partitioning to the observed symptoms, offers a higher probability of being able to find a partition that minimizes the presence of cross-domain symptoms.
  • an innovative element of our approach is to create virtual 'computational domains' for each realization of the fault propagation model, grouping faults into these domains solely for the sake of computational efficiency, with no necessary connection to the geographical location of the elements that, upon failure, become faults.

  • each individual domain determines all its optimum local solutions, ignoring all of its cross-domain symptoms. If all faults have the same probability of occurrence, an optimal solution is a minimal set of faults that 'covers' (explains) all the observed local symptoms. This is a standard 'set covering' problem that can be solved by commercial integer programming solvers. This procedure is easily adapted to the case where faults have different probabilities of occurrence.
  • an optimum overall solution consists of the collection of the optimum local diagnoses, one from each domain. Each such collection is an optimal solution.
  • the overall global optimal solution is available once the local optimal solutions of all the domains are found.
  • the innovation of the present invention consists of distributed computations implemented by means of partitioning the relation graph associated with the fault propagation model, determining all optimal local solutions, and finding a combination of local solutions, one from each domain, that provide a global solution that is either provably optimal or deviates from optimality at most by a known bound.

Abstract

L'invention concerne un procédé de calculs distribués pour des diagnostics de panne dans un système dont le modèle de propagation de panne a des couplages déterministes entre des pannes et des symptômes comprenant la création d'un 'graphe de relation' dans lequel les nœuds correspondent aux pannes potentielles, avec deux nœuds connectés par une 'liaison relationnelle' si leur pannes correspondantes ont un symptôme observé en commun. Le graphe de relation est ensuite divisé en plusieurs domaines, tout en minimisant le nombre de liaisons relationnelles inter-domaines, qui correspondent à des symptômes inter-domaines. Dans chaque domaine, toutes les solutions locales optimales au sous-problème du domaine sont d'abord déterminées, et ensuite une combinaison est sélectionnée parmi les solutions locales, une de chaque domaine, qui explique le nombre maximal de symptômes inter-domaines, pour lesquelles la solution optimale est complétée, si nécessaire, par des pannes additionnelles pour expliquer tout symptôme inter-domaine inexpliqué restant, déterminant également une limite à l'écart par rapport au caractère optimal de la solution globale.
