Abstract
A methodology is proposed to diagnose faults from a detection system that allows to express uncertainty with intervals in parameters and measurements. A fault is detected by comparing current measurements with computed external and internal approximations of behavior. The results are applied to diagnose faults. A qualitative data set is obtained in order to create fault rules. A fault library is built from these rules to make fault diagnosis. Diagnosis is given by a set of the most possible faults with similar behavior.
