Clustering and pattern recognition from data can be used as means to extract knowledge of a process which may be useful for control, predicting failures and supporting decision making, among other functions. This paper presents a method to recognize patterns in multivariate time series based on a combination of wavelet features, PCA (Principal Component Analysis) similarity metrics and fuzzy clustering. The signal analysis of some process variables is performed based on the Wavelet Transform (WT), and a Multiscale PCA Similarity factor (SPCA(ms)) is proposed to consider the distances between objects (multivariate time series) according to a multi-resolution approach. A database extracted from the benchmark Tennessee Eastman (TE) process is used to show the efficiency of the method compared with traditional approaches in a fault detection and diagnosis problem. The clustering using SPCA(ms) provides the recognition of a fault pattern which may be useful to support decision-making at the operational level allowing real-time monitoring of failure probability.
