Abstract
In this paper we survey a number of methods for the 3etection of abrupt changes (such as failures) in stochastic dynamical systems.We concentrate on the class of linear systems, but the basic concepts, if not the detailed analyses, carry over to other classes of systems.The methods surveyed range from the design of specific failure-sensitive filte + -s, to the use of statistical tests on filter innovations, to the development of jump process formulations.Tradeoffs in complexity versus performance are discussed.

The feasibility of the scheme is investigated by applying it to a simplified version of the flight control system for a hydrofoil boat, and tests indicate that scale factor errors, errors due to threshold effects, and bias errors in the instruments are detected as they occur.

Simulation results show that there is a significant improvement in tracking capability using the decision-directed adaptive tracker, which performs on the basis of a piecewise linear model in which the breakpoints are defined on-line using the maneuver detector.
