Abstract
The rapid development of big data technology and machine learning has increasingly focused attention on fault diagnosis in complex chemical processes. However, data-driven approaches often overlook the inherent physical correlations within the system and lack a robust mechanism for providing trusted explanations for fault diagnosis. To address this challenge, a graph-based fault diagnosis model framework is proposed along with a dependable fault node diagnosis analysis method. In order to enhance the extraction of chemical process features from a spatial perspective, a graph convolution network (GCN)-based node spatial encoding module is integrated. The construction of the adjacency matrix involves combining a priori knowledge of chemical processes with Pearson correlation, thereby incorporating the physical correlations between nodes. Simultaneously, to capture temporal dependencies in fault data, a spatiotemporal feature fusion module based on the long short-term memory network (LSTM) is employed. In terms of model training, a dual-supervision strategy is adopted to ensure stable convergence of the multiclass fault diagnosis model. For model inference, a multi-model voting strategy is designed to mitigate accuracy degradation resulting from model prediction bias. To tackle the interpretability challenge, a fault diagnosis analysis method based on node masking is designed, effectively identifying critical nodes contributing to system faults. Experimental validation on the Tennessee Eastman process demonstrates the effectiveness of the proposed model, achieving high accuracy in fault diagnosis. The average fault diagnosis rate for all fault types reaches 0.9844, showcasing state-of-the-art performance in fault diagnosis.
