The proposed approach in this paper revolutionizes the field of Active Fault Detection (AFD) by decoupling it into two distinct tasks: Passive Fault Detection (PFD) and control input design. This novel formulation enables leveraging PFD methods to efficiently utilize available information, while optimizing control input for gathering insights. The core contribution is FIERL, a simulation-based approach using Constrained Reinforcement Learning (CRL) to optimize passive detector performance without requiring knowledge of its inner workings. FIERL’s broad applicability and effectiveness in handling complex scenarios make it an attractive solution. Tested on a benchmark problem for actuator fault diagnosis, FIERL demonstrates robustness by generalizing to unseen fault dynamics.

This paper introduces a new way to detect faults using machines that can learn from experience. Imagine teaching a robot how to find problems before they happen! The researchers took two main steps: first, they found ways to detect problems (passive fault detection) and second, they designed strategies for the machine to gather more information about the problem. They created a new method called FIERL that can work with many different types of sensors and machines. It’s like training a pet dog to find hidden treats! The researchers tested their idea on a real-world problem and found it works well even when the situation is unfamiliar.
