MUMBAI, India, Nov. 2 -- Intellectual Property India has published a patent application (202641124420 A) filed by Vellore Institute Of Technology on October 16, 2026, for A System And Method For Autonomous Causal Sensor Forensics And Self-Recovery In Cyber-Physical Systems.
Inventors include Dhinesh Babu L D; and M S Shabreena.
The application for the patent was published on October 30, 2026, under issue no. 44/2026.
Abstract: The present disclosure proposes system (100) for autonomous causal sensor forensics and self-recovery in a cyber-physical sensing environment comprises a processing system (102) receiving sensor measurements from a distributed physical sensor network (104) together with process-state information, communication information, timing information, and data-fusion information. A unified state synchronization module (108) generates a unified sensing state. A sensor health monitoring module (110), causal state graph module (112), fault hypothesis generation module (114), counterfactual prediction module (116), adaptive diagnostic experiment planner (118), diagnostic micro-excitation module (120), causal response fingerprinting module (122), and bidirectional causal verification module (124) determine a fault hypothesis. A fault localization and boundary module (126), measurement quarantine module (128), verification-gated reconstruction module (130), control admission gateway (132), and sensor recovery and reintegration module (134) provide fault localization, measurement restriction, replacement measurement verification, control admission, and sensor reintegration.
