Abstract
The present invention discloses a system and method for diagnosing and validating a machine with waveform data generated therefrom. In this invention, historical waveform data are obtained from machines having known faults along with corresponding actions for repairing the machines and are used to develop fault classification rules. The fault classification rules are stored in a diagnostic knowledge database. The database of classification rules are used to diagnose new waveform data from a machine having an unknown fault.
