Virtual Bookstore Citation Title THE DIAGNOSTICS AND THE FAULT DETECTION OF GAS TURBINE ENGINES BY USING DIFFERENT NEURAL NETWORKS Author(s) Torella, Giovanni; Torella, Roberto Corporate Author(s) AMERICAN INST OF AERONAUTICS AND ASTRONAUTICS NEW YORK Report Date 9/10/1999 Page Count 10 Abstract This paper deals with the results of a research carried out for the evaluation of Neural Networks for engine diagnostics. The study continues the works made in the past on the same subject. Now the main aim is to find new methods for improving the effectiveness of Neural Nets. The results presented here concern with two different Neural Nets: the Back Propagation Neural Networks (BPNN) and the Adaptive Resonance Theory Neural Networks (ART1-2). As regarding BPNN particular attention is paid to the improvement of training time and their robustness. The study of ART1-2 considers the use and the insertion of the probability of fault happening in the training patterns. The paper shows in full details all activities carried out as well as all improvements with respect to past results.
