METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR DIAGNOSING AN ENGINE OR AN AIRCRAFT

Systems and methods for diagnosing an engine or an aircraft are described herein. Flight data of at least one of the engine and the aircraft is obtained. A graph-based representation modeling a mathematical relationship between parameters of at least one of the engine and the aircraft is obtained. The graph-based representation has a plurality of permutations. Output data for the plurality of permutations is generated based on the flight data. The output data for the plurality of permutations is compared and a fault is detected based on a discrepancy in the output data. A signal indicative of the fault is outputted in response to detecting the fault.
