Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention belongs to the field of civil aviation safety technology and flight data application, and particularly relates to a risk warning and cause identification method and system for aircraft runway overrun / runoff events. Background Art
[0002] Runway overruns or excursions during the approach and landing phase are one of the leading causes of fatal accidents. Flight quality monitoring technology, based on post-flight data analysis, is a key means of causal analysis and risk assessment for runway overruns and excursions, and is of great significance to flight safety. However, current flight quality monitoring technology is still insufficient in terms of real-time early warning and tracing of the causes of runway overruns and excursions. This is mainly manifested in the following aspects:
[0003] First, the existing runway overrun / excursion detection method mainly combines flight data after the flight to determine whether a runway overrun / excursion has occurred. This makes it difficult to achieve real-time monitoring of aircraft status and online risk warnings, making it impossible for flight crews to detect potential risks in advance and further formulate corresponding strategies to prevent threats and errors from further evolving into runway overrun / excursion incidents.
[0004] Secondly, there is a lack of automated methods for identifying the causes of runway overruns and excursions. Currently, identifying the causes of runway overruns and excursions relies on manual analysis by flight safety experts combined with post-flight data to further determine the risk type. Automated identification of the causes of runway overruns and excursions could help flight safety experts better understand risk patterns and, to a certain extent, provide flight crews with information to support decision-making and take appropriate preventative measures.

[0041] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects:
[0042] (1) Traditional runway overrun / runoff detection methods determine whether a runway overrun / runoff event has occurred based on flight data after the flight, and are unable to provide online risk warnings. The present invention proposes a runway overrun / runoff risk prediction model, which builds a high-performance deep model based on Transformer, takes historical flight data sequences as input, and predicts the distance the aircraft will deviate from the runway centerline and the remaining runway distance at future moments. By providing risk warning information within a period of time before the runway overrun / runoff event occurs, real-time monitoring of the aircraft's flight status and runway overrun / runoff risk warnings can be achieved, and a certain amount of time is provided for the flight crew to further formulate corresponding strategies to avoid the runway overrun / runoff event.
[0043] (2) The traditional causal analysis method of runway overrun / runoff incidents requires flight safety experts to manually analyze the risk types that induce the runway overrun / runoff incidents in combination with post-flight data. This method consumes a lot of costs. The present invention proposes a method for constructing the correspondence between risk factors and key parameters. Based on the Delphi method, it integrates the experience of multiple experts to obtain the influence relationship and coupling mechanism between risk factors and key parameters, and further realizes automated cause identification by combining abnormal prediction models and hypothesis testing methods. This provides flight safety experts with risk cause information of runway overrun / runoff incidents, assists them in understanding risk patterns, and provides reference information in the post-flight causal analysis process. At the same time, it also provides relevant abnormal parameters to flight crew members, which can assist them in taking correct preventive measures to a certain extent to avoid the occurrence of runway overrun / runoff incidents.

Where d is the number of key parameters, v 1 The first key parameter is PV. The key parameter PV includes two parts: PX and PW. PX is the key parameter set obtained through flight data. PX={x 1 ,x 2 ,...,x b}, b is the number of elements in PX, x 1 is the first element in PX; PW is a set of key parameters obtained through meteorological message data, airport pavement data, etc., PW={w 1 ,w 2 ,...,w c}, c is the number of elements in PW, and d=b+c, w 1 It is the first element in PW. Then, for different stages (take-off and landing) and different types (deviation and overrun), corresponding risk factor fault trees T are established respectively, so as to further accurately and comprehensively obtain the risk factors that cause the aircraft to overrun / overrun the runway. Among them, the fault tree is constructed based on the fault event information related to the aircraft overrun / overrun, and includes multiple fault events related to the aircraft overrun / overrun and the causal relationship between multiple fault events. Specifically, the fault tree is constructed according to the top event T, the intermediate event PI corresponding to the top event = {I1, I2, ..., I j} and the sub-event PB corresponding to the intermediate event = {B1, B2, ..., B k}. PI is the set of intermediate events corresponding to the top event T, j is the number of elements in PI, and I1 is the first element in PI; PB is the set of sub-events corresponding to the intermediate event set, k is the number of elements in PB, and B1 is the first element in PI. There is a causal relationship between events at different levels, that is, the top event T is the result, and the intermediate event PI corresponding to the top event is the cause of the top event; the intermediate event PI is the result, and the sub-event PB corresponding to the intermediate event is the cause of the intermediate event. All basic events of the fault tree are defined as risk factors that cause the aircraft to overshoot / exit the runway: PR = {R1, R2, ..., R m}, where the basic event is the lowest level event in the fault tree, m is the number of risk factors, and R1 represents the first risk factor.
[0052] S1: Based on the modified Delphi method, the key parameter PV = {v 1 ,v 2 ,...,v d} and risk factors PR={R1,R2,...,R m}, is used to accurately identify and analyze the risk factors of overrunning / runway deviation. The specific steps are as follows:

An anonymous scoring questionnaire was designed and distributed to evaluate any risk factor R. j (j∈[1,m]) and any key parameter v i The degree of correlation between (i∈[1,d]) and the subjective comments of experts are collected. The rating levels include "1-irrelevant", "2-weakly irrelevant", "3-moderately relevant", "4-strongly relevant", and "5-strongly relevant".
[0055] (S1.2) Update of scoring data based on SME
[0056] Based on the scoring questionnaire of each expert obtained in (S1.1), for each risk factor R j (j∈[1,m]), construct the parameter association matrix Where n is the number of experts, is the key parameter v of the rth expert pair i and risk factors R j The correlation degree score is then introduced: mean μ i,j, consensus index ECI i,j , interquartile range IQR i,j ,in Key parameter v i and risk factors R j The mean score of the degree of association, if μ i,j ≥3.5, it indicates that the key parameter v i and risk factors R j Strong correlation; ECI i,j =1-σ i,j / μ i,j , is the score standard deviation, ECI i,j Used to describe the degree of concentration of expert opinions. If ECI i,j ≥0.7, indicating that the experts' opinions are highly consistent; IQR i,j for If IQR i,j ≥2, it indicates that there is a large disagreement in the ratings.
[0057] All experts’ anonymous rating data, mean μ i,j , consensus index ECI i,j , interquartile range IQR i,j And subjective comments are provided to each expert again, and each expert needs to focus on μ i,j <3.5, ECI i,j <0.7, IQR i,j The scores of ≥2 and the indicators mentioned in the subjective comments were combined, and the original scoring results were improved and updated. The process was repeated 2 to 3 times.
[0058] (S1.3) Correspondence confirmation based on scoring data
[0059] According to the final scoring data, if μ i,j ≥3.5, the risk factor R j Affected by the key parameter v i The influence of is greater, and finally the corresponding relationship between key parameters and risk factors is obtained, which is recorded as R j =f(v h ,...,v p ), 1≤h≤p≤m.
[0060] S2: Build a Transformer-based runway overrun / runoff risk prediction model. This model extracts runway overrun / runoff event characteristics from flight data and obtains the aircraft's runway centerline deviation and remaining runway distance at a certain point in the future from historical parameter sequences. The specific steps are as follows:
[0061] (S2.1) Building a Transformer Network
[0062] For the flight data sequence of the aircraft in the time range 0 to t [x1, x2, ..., x t ] T , using a 6-layer Encoder layer structure to transform the flight parameter sequence into a high-dimensional feature matrix Z with time-dependent and multi-parameter associations enc =[z1,z2,...,z t ] T It is then input into the 4-layer Decoder layer for decoding. Based on the global features and historical information provided by the Encoder layer, the runway status at future moments is gradually deduced, and the final output is the distance d from the runway centerline at the future time t+k. t+k and the remaining runway distance L t+k .in Represents the flight data sequence record of the flight at time t, Represents the recorded value of the first flight data at time t, Z enc is a high-dimensional time series feature matrix, is the time series feature vector of the flight at time t, b′ is the hidden layer dimension of the model, d t+k represents the distance from the runway centerline at the future time t+k predicted at time t, L t+k Represents the remaining runway distance at time t+k predicted at time t.
[0063] Specifically, the distance d from the runway centerline t+k The angle δ between the line connecting the center of the aircraft and the localizer and the centerline of the runway t+k and the distance between the aircraft and the localizer, d t+k =(L0+SL′ t+k )·tanδ t+k ; Remaining runway distance L t+k Calculated by subtracting the distance between the aircraft and the runway threshold from the total length of the runway, L t+k =SL′ t+k Among them, δ t+k is the angle between the center line of the aircraft and the localizer and the center line of the runway at time t+k, L0 is the distance between the localizer and the end of the runway, S is the runway length, L′ t+k is the vertical distance between the aircraft and the entrance at time t+k, d t+k >0 represents the maximum distance that the center of gravity of the aircraft deviates from the left side of the runway centerline (the direction of the aircraft's takeoff during takeoff and the direction of the aircraft's landing during landing), d t+k <0 represents the maximum distance the aircraft nose deviates to the right of the runway centerline (same as above).
[0064] A Transformer-based runway overrun / runaway risk prediction model is defined as follows:

The input is the flight data sequence of the aircraft from 0 to t [x1, x2, ..., x t ] T , obtain the predicted distance d from the runway centerline at the future time t+k t+k and the remaining runway distance L t+k .
[0067] (S2.2) Runway Overrun / Excursion Risk Monitoring
[0068] Based on historical flight data, the 95% percentile of the runway centerline deviation distance of all flights at time t+k is set as the maximum value of the centerline deviation distance threshold interval. The 5% quantile is set as the minimum value of the threshold interval of the distance from the center line The 5% quantile of the remaining runway distance of all flights at time k is set as the remaining runway distance threshold μ t+k .
[0069] when or When L t+k ≤μ t+k , it indicates that the aircraft is at risk of running off the runway at time t+k. When the aircraft is at risk of running off the runway, record the key parameters of the current warning time t and time t. Then continue to monitor the risk status at the next moment.
[0070] S3: Based on the output of the runway overrun / excursion risk prediction model, the cause of the event is traced using hypothesis testing for online risk detection. The specific steps are:
[0071] When an early warning is issued at time t, the key parameters at time t Key parameters of other normal flights at time t Conduct hypothesis testing to obtain key parameters that are significantly different between the alert flights and the normal flights. Where 1, 2, ..., N represent 1 to N different flights. (i∈[1,N]) represents the key parameters of the i-th flight at time t.
[0072] QQ plot test parameters Whether it conforms to the normal distribution. If the parameter The variance is σ 2 , normal distribution N(μ,σ 2 ), then the Z test is used for significance test. The Z test is a parameter test method. First, the Z value is calculated according to the formula. in is the sample mean, μ is the population mean, σ is the population standard deviation, and n is the sample size. At the significance level α = 0.05, the corresponding critical value Z is obtained by looking up the standard normal distribution table. α , if |Z|>Z α , it indicates that there is a significant difference between the data and the normal data.
[0073] If the parameter If the data do not conform to the normal distribution, the box plot method is used for significance test. The box plot method is a non-parametric test method. First, the lower quartile Q1, upper quartile Q3 and median of the normal data are calculated, and a box plot is drawn. Then, the interquartile range IQR = Q3-Q1 is calculated, and the lower limit of the abnormal value is determined to be Q1-1.5IQR, and the upper limit is Q3+1.5IQR. Finally, if the data to be tested is or This indicates that there is a significant difference between the data and the normal data.
[0074] By parametric test (|Z|>Z α ) or nonparametric tests ( or ), output the key parameters of the warning flight and the normal flight that are significantly different, recorded as the inducement parameter R′={v g ,...,v q}, 1≤g≤q≤m. Finally, the key parameter PV obtained by S1 is combined with {v 1 ,v 2 ,...,v d} and risk factors PR={R1,R2,...,R m} to determine the most similar inducement for overrunning / running off the runway. The specific method is: calculate the inducement parameter R′={v g ,...,v q} and each corresponding relationship R j =f(v h ,...,vp The Jaccard similarity of )(j∈[1,m]) is as follows:
