The belief rule base is crucial in expert systems for intelligent diagnosis of equipment. However, in the belief rule base for fault diagnosis, multiple antecedent attributes are often initially determined by domain experts. Multiple fault symptoms related to multiple antecedent attributes are different when an actual fault occurs. This leads to multiple antecedent attributes matching with multiple fault symptoms non-simultaneously, thereby resulting in a fault diagnosis lacking timeliness and accuracy. To address this issue, this paper proposes a method for belief rule-based optimization based on Naive Bayes theory. First, a fault sample is taken in a long enough window and divided into several interval samples, making the analysis samples approximate the overall samples. Second, using Gaussian mixture clustering and Naive Bayes optimization, iteration is performed over the threshold and limit values of fault symptoms in the belief rule base based on the requirements of the timeliness and accuracy of fault diagnosis results. Finally, the belief rule base is optimized. Using fault samples from high-pressure heaters and condensers, the validation results show that there is a there is a significant improvement in the timeliness and accuracy of fault diagnosis with the optimal belief rule base.
