ABSTRACT:
A method, system, and apparatus for determining a corrective action for a diagnosable system are provided. A failure mode reasoning engine (FMRE) receives an evidence notification. The FMRE determines a plurality of evidentiary-failure-mode-probability rectangles (EFMPRs) based on the evidence notification. A candidate EFMPR in the plurality of EFMPRs is determined. The candidate EFMPR may be determined based on a distance from an origin of an evidentiary-failure-mode-probability graph. An overlap area is determined between the candidate EFMPR and the other EFMPRs in the plurality of EFMPRs. The overlap area is compared to an overlap threshold. If the overlap area is less than the overlap threshold, a reasoned failure mode (i.e., correct diagnosis) and/or a reasoned corrective action for the diagnosable system is determined, based on the candidate EFMPR. The FMRE may report and/or take the reasoned corrective action.
