Multimodal Reasoning for Federated Hybrid Diagnosis of Modular Electromechanical Systems

We propose to address current bottlenecks in industrial diagnostic modeling and reasoning through reuse of product module-level diagnostic models and reasoners ("engines"), integration of local (module-level) diagnostic engines into global (system-level) diagnostic reasoning systems, and sharing and distributing the diagnostic modeling and reasoning effort between system integrators (OEMs) and Tier One vendors (which may include OEM divisions).
