Developing Large-Scale Bayesian Networks By Composition: Fault Diagnosis Of Electrical Power Systems In Aircraft And Spacecraft, Ole J. Mengshoel, Scott Poll, Tolga Kurtoglu
Ole J Mengshoel
In this paper, we investigate the use of Bayesian networks to construct large-scale diagnostic systems. In particular, we consider the development of large-scale Bayesian networks by composition. This compositional approach reflects how (often redundant) subsystems are architected to form systems such as electrical power systems. We develop high-level specifiations, Bayesian networks, clique trees, and arithmetic circuits representing 24 different electrical power systems. The largest among these 24 Bayesian networks contains over 1,000 random variables. Another BN represents the real-world electrical power system ADAPT, which is representative of electrical power systems deployed in aerospace vehicles. In addition to demonstrating the scalability …
