The proposed paper develops a decision-theoretic framework for dimensionality reduction in structural digital twin technologies used for asset management decision-making. The goal is to minimize misclassification costs while reducing the feature space and preserving discriminatory information. This is achieved by formulating an eigenvalue problem that weighs separabilities between classes according to their misclassification costs within a decision process. The approach is demonstrated through a synthetic case study, highlighting its potential to improve predictive performance in high-dimensional classification problems.

The paper introduces a new way to reduce the number of features used in digital twin technologies for asset management. This helps prevent problems when there are too many features, making it harder for models to work well. The method makes decisions based on how costly it would be to misclassify something, and tries to find the best balance between keeping important information and reducing the dimensionality. It’s demonstrated using a fake example, showing that this approach can help improve model performance.
