Speech Title: Data-driven Fault Detection and Diagnosis following Intelligence Programming with Machine Learning and Data Augmentation

Abstract

Data-driven fault detection and diagnosis (FDD) solutions are highly demanded for smart building/city design, total energy performance improvement, electrical and electronic infrastructure maintenance, automation for constructions and many cross-discipline applications using modern AI, IoT, sensor networks and data analytics technologies. In this seminar, a specific FDD application will be introduced, namely, FDD for the heating, ventilation and air-conditioning (HVAC) systems. The motivation of proposing data-driven solutions to the HVAC FDD problem will first be introduced. Secondly, the methodologies that we proposed and developed in the past five years will be briefly described, which include semi-supervised learning, data augmentation and unsupervised learning. Last, the trends of using machine learning technology in the field of FDD are summarized and discussed. Some on-going projects and future works of us will also be introduced.
