摘要：This paper proposes a semi-supervised autoencoder based approach for the detection of anomalies in turbofan engines. Data used in this research is generated through simulation of turbofan engines created using a tool known as Commercial Modular Aero-Propulsion System Simulation (CMAPSS). C-MAPSS allows users to simulate various operational settings, environmental conditions, and control settings by varying various input parameters. Optimal architecture of autoencoder is discovered using Bayesian hyperparameter tuning approach. Autoencoder model with optimal architecture is trained on data representing normal behavior of turbofan engines included in training set. Performance of trained model is then tested on data of engines included in test set. To study the effect of redundant features removal on performance, two approaches are implemented and tested: with and without redundant features removal. Performance of proposed models is evaluated using various performance evaluation metrics like F1-score, Precision and Recall. Results have shown that best performance is achieved when autoencoder model is used without redundant feature removal.
