Abstract

A system and method for fault detection is provided. The fault detection system provides the ability to detect symptoms of fault in turbine engines and other mechanical systems that have nonlinear relationships. The fault detection system uses a neural network to perform a data representation and feature extraction where the extracted features are analogous to principal components derived in a principal component analysis. This neural network data representation analysis can then be used to determine the likelihood of a fault in the system.
