A method and apparatus for providing early fault detection and alert generation in a multi-parameter process is provided. The method comprises defining a multi-dimensional space, each dimension representing a parameter of the process; applying an analysis of the process to the space in order to define regions of high and low probability of occurrence; measuring and mapping parameter values onto the space; and generating an alert whenever a parameter value is mapped into a region of low probability. The method and apparatus are also useful for identifying the cause of faults, adjusting the process to avoid faults and predicting a process-specific maintenance schedule.
