Novel GA-Based DNN Architecture for Identifying the Failure Mode with High Accuracy and Analyzing Its Effects on the System

Symmetric data play an effective role in the risk assessment process, and, therefore, integrating symmetrical information using Failure Mode and Effects Analysis (FMEA) is essential in implementing projects with big data. This proactive approach helps to quickly identify risks and take measures to address them. However, this task is always time-consuming and costly. On the other hand, there is an essential need for an expert in this field to carry out this process manually. Therefore, in the present study, the authors propose a new methodology to automatically manage this task through a deep-learning technique. Moreover, due to the different nature of the risk data, it is not possible to consider a single neural network architecture for all of them. To overcome this problem, a Genetic Algorithm (GA) was employed to find the best architecture and hyperparameters. Finally, the risks were processed and predicted using the new proposed methodology without sending data to other servers, i.e., external servers. The results of the analysis for the first risk, i.e., latency and real-time processing, showed that using the proposed methodology can improve the detection accuracy of the failure mode by 71.52%, 54.72%, 72.47%, and 75.73% compared to the unique algorithm with the activation function of Relu and number of neurons 32, respectively, related to the one, two, three, and four hidden layers. © 2024 by the authors.
