This work presents a novel method for inferring causal dependencies among abnormal behaviours of components in Complex Technical Infrastructures (CTIs) from large-scale databases of alarm messages. The proposed method extracts causal relationships from association rules performing a probabilistic analysis of the alarm occurrence times and applying a modified version of the quicksort algorithm. Its capability and effectiveness is illustrated by application to a real large-scale databases of alarm messages collected in the technical infrastructure of the European Organization for Nuclear Research (CERN).

Abstract

This work presents a novel method for inferring causal dependencies among abnormal behaviours of components in Complex Technical Infrastructures (CTIs) from large-scale databases of alarm messages. The proposed method extracts causal relationships from association rules performing a probabilistic analysis of the alarm occurrence times and applying a modified version of the quicksort algorithm. Its capability and effectiveness is illustrated by application to a real large-scale databases of alarm messages collected in the technical infrastructure of the European Organization for Nuclear Research (CERN).
