Abstract

General Electric created a case-based reasoning system to diagnose unexpected shutdowns of turbines. This system is currently in use at a remote monitoring facility which monitors over 1500 turbines. There are multiple root causes for turbine shutdowns. The system has a reasoner for five of the most common root causes. These reasoners use either rule-based or case-based reasoning to produce a confidence value which specifies the likelihood that the root cause for that reasoner was responsible for the shutdown. Another case-based reasoner combines these individual confidences to determine the most likely root cause and its confidence.
