Fault diagnosis reasoning for set-membership approaches and application

This paper focuses on diagnostic reasoning for uncertain dynamical systems. It proposes a diagnostic reasoning that distinguishes normal from abnormal behavior and that takes into account the new results in set-membership diagnostic approaches. Considering these results, which are dedicated to uncertain systems, enlightens the diagnostic reasoning with new aspects. To validate the theoretical aspects, the paper ends by the presentation of an application of diagnostic reasoning and set-membership coherency tests on a laboratory plant: a water tanks system.
