IX International Summer School on Fault Diagnosis of Complex Systems

Girona 4-8 July 2022

Programme

Programme

Automated diagnosis of devices and systems is a very interesting and active research and development field. It can be approached with different techniques (i.e. knowledge-based systems, case-based reasoning, data-driven methods including machine-learning or model-based reasoning) coming from different fields: Control Engineering, Artificial Intelligence or Statistics . This intensive course will tackle these different perspectives including both theory lectures and practical exercises focused on application problems.

This School is conceived as an intensive seminar which will take place during a week (4-8 of July) in Girona (Catalunya, Spain) at the Campus Montilivi of the Universitat de Girona (UdG). The main goal is to introduce students to different diagnosis approaches providing the vision of experts in the field coming from different research communities including Control Engineering, Artificial Intelligence and Statistics. The topics covered in this edition will be:
