US Patent 11926436 Automated fusion and analysis of multiple sources of aircraft data

Systems and methods for fusing and analyzing multiple sources of data from a plurality of aircraft-related data sources for fault determination and other integrated vehicle health management (IVHM) diagnostics are provided. More particularly, one or more portions of data from a plurality of aircraft-related data sources for one or more aircraft are accessed. One or more alerts indicative of a data anomaly within the one or more portions of aircraft-related data sources can be detected, wherein a type of alert and originating data source associated with each alert as well as optional related confidence scores can be identified. One or more aircraft faults can be determined based at least in part on a correlation of identified types and data sources for detected alerts. An output indicative of the determined one or more aircraft faults can be provided.
