Abstract
A method is provided that includes accessing a multivariate time series of flight data for an aircraft, and iteratively performing runs of genetic programming on groups of the sensors. A population of computer programs is randomly generated from a selected group of the plurality of sensors, and primitive functions selected from a library of primitive functions. The population is iteratively transformed into new generations of the population, and includes sub-rankings of the group of sensors based on a quantitative fitness determined according to selected fitness criterion. A ranking of the group of sensors from the sub-rankings of the group of sensors is produced. An aggregate ranking of the plurality of sensors is produced from the ranking of the group of sensors over a plurality of iterations. And the subset of sensors is selected from the aggregate ranking of the plurality of sensors, and according to selected optimization criterion.
