Event-Based Anomaly Detection Using a One-Class SVM for a Hybrid Electric Vehicle.

In the controller development process, it is required to verify whether control functions operate normally, without fault or anomaly. Many control functions with complex system structures require various actual tests and test data analysis for verification. This paper presents an anomaly detection algorithm to verify control functions and to more efficiently analyze test data of a hybrid control unit (HCU) of a hybrid electric vehicle (HEV). The anomaly detection algorithm automatically detects anomaly of control functions from the test data, instead of manual labor by engineers. The examined target HCU control functions in this paper are the engine clutch engagement/disengagement control function and the engine start cooperative control function, which are crucial functions of transmission mounted electric drive (TMED) HEVs. A data-driven approach using a one-class support vector machine (SVM) is used to make it easy to apply various control functions. Actual vehicle test data is examined by the algorithm to verify the control functions at an actual vehicle level. The developed anomaly detection algorithm demonstrates feasibility and effectiveness of the proposed algorithm in detecting not only prior-known anomalies but also prior-unknown anomalies. Because other vehicle control functions have similar characteristics with the target functions of this paper, this algorithm is expected to be successfully applied to other HCU control functions.
