TI - Machine Learning for Anomaly Detection and Classification in Particle Accelerators J2 - Proc. of NAPAC2022, Albuquerque, NM, USA, 07-12 August 2022 CY - Albuquerque, NM, USA T2 - International Particle Accelerator Conference T3 - 5 LA - english AB - We explore the possibility of using a Machine Learning (ML) algorithm to identify the source of occasional poor performance of the Particle Accumulator Ring (PAR) and the Linac-To-PAR (LTP) transport line, which are parts of the injector complex of the Advanced Photon Source (APS) at Argonne National Lab. The cause of reduced injection or extraction efficiencies may be as simple as one parameter being out of range. Still, it may take an expert considerable time to notice it, whereas a well-trained ML model can point at it instantly. In addition, a machine expert might not be immediately available when a problem occurs. Therefore, we began by focusing on such single-parameter anomalies. The training data were generated by creating controlled perturbations of several parameters of PAR and LTP one-by-one, while continuously logging all available process variables. Then, several ML classifiers were trained to recognize certain signatures in the logged data and link them to the sources of poor machine performance. Possible applications of autoencoders and variational autoencoders for unsupervised anomaly detection and for anomaly clustering were considered as well.
