Diagnostic system for the diagnosis of a reparable technical object, with the use of an artificial neural network of RBF type.

The paper presents a system for the diagnosis of repairable technical objects with the use of an artificial neural network of a radial basis function (RBF) type. The structure and the algorithm of the work of an RBF type neural network are described. This paper presents a method to control an operation process of a complex technical object with the use of trivalent diagnostic information. Also, a general diagram of the complex technical object was presented, and its internal structure was described. A diagnostic analysis was conducted, as a result of which the sets of the functional elements of the object and its diagnostic signals were determined. Also, the methodology of the diagnostic examination of the technical system was presented. The result was a functional and diagnostic model, which constituted the basis for initial diagnostic information which is provided by the sets of information concerning the elements of the basic modules and their output signals. The final results obtained for the computations conducted by the DIAG programme were presented in the table of the states of the object. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
