Abstract
The primary goal of multimodal process monitoring is to detect abnormalities or occurrence of faults. However, the profound challenge in the multimodal monitoring problem is that it is difficult to quickly distinguish the fault occurrence on a process mode from other operating modes. In this work, a Gaussian mixture model based variational Bayesian principal component analysis (GMM-VBPCA) is proposed. GMM is used to capture the global multimodal information where each Gaussian component of GMM represents a corresponding normal operating mode. VBPCA is employed to construct a probabilistic model for each operating mode. Using the weights of posterior probabilities from global GMM, local VBPCA models can then be fused to characterize the normal multimodal processes. In order to detect the occurrence of faults, Kullback-Leibler (KL) divergence of latents and model residuals of the multimodal process are used as the monitoring statistics that measure the deviation from the normal multimodal distribution. Owing to the variational local model, the posterior distribution of latents and model residuals of the GMM-VBPCA can characterize the process behavior for every test sample. Finally, GMM-VBPCA based monitoring statistics are compared with existing process monitoring methods through a simulated numerical example and an industrial hydrocracking process. Note to Practitioners—In this paper, a novel process monitoring statistics has been proposed that can aid the practitioners in accurately identifying the process faults in near real-time with minimal false alarm. Also, the sensitivity to small bias faults is higher that the traditional methods, thus enabling higher fault detection rate. Based on the proposed statistics, an online monitoring scheme has been proposed. Hence, it is useful for practitioners in quickly taking preventive measures to avoid catastrophe, and also taking corrective measures to bring the plant to normal operating range or scheduling maintenance in case of early detection of sensor or equipment failures.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
