It is well known that the performance of the Kalman filter deteriorates when the system noise
statistics are not available a priori. In particular, the adjustment of measurement noise …

This paper presents novel approach to the task of control performance assessment.
Proposed approach does not require any a priori knowledge on process model and uses …

Monitoring the health of the AD during operation is an important task to ensure near optimal
operation. Typical measurements from ADs such as pH, alkalinity and chemical oxygen …

State estimation is a widely adopted soft sensing technique that incorporates predictions
from an accurate model of the process and measurements to provide reliable estimates of …

Alternative indexes for the CPA task go beyond the classical and commonly used
assessment methodologies. They try to address the practical aspects, which are frequently …

Pipeline health monitoring in the oil and gas industry is critical, where any damage or loss of
its integrity causes massive cost. Therefore, early prediction and estimation of failure is of a …

Pipelines are widely used for distribution and transportation of many products such as water,
oil, and natural gas. Due to the long distances of the piping systems that transport oil and …
