Abstract

This work focuses on developing a universal onboard neural network system for restoring information when helicopter turboshaft engine sensors fail. A mathematical task was formulated to determine the occurrence and location of these sensor failures using a multi-class Bayesian classification model that incorporates prior knowledge and updates probabilities with new data. The Bayesian approach was employed for identifying and localizing sensor failures, utilizing a Bayesian neural network with a 4–6–3 structure as the core of the developed system. A training algorithm for the Bayesian neural network was created, which estimates the prior distribution of network parameters through variational approximation, maximizes the evidence lower bound of direct likelihood instead, and updates parameters by calculating gradients of the log-likelihood and evidence lower bound, while adding regularization terms for warnings, distributions, and uncertainty estimates to interpret results. This approach ensures balanced data handling, effective training (achieving nearly 100% accuracy on both training and validation sets), and improved model understanding (with training losses not exceeding 2.5%). An example is provided that demonstrates solving the information restoration task in the event of a gas-generator rotor r.p.m. sensor failure in the TV3-117 helicopter turboshaft engine. The developed onboard neural network system implementing feasibility on a helicopter using the neuro-processor Intel Neural Compute Stick 2 has been analytically proven.
