A Diagnosability-Integrated Design Approach Based on Graph Theory

Round 1

Reviewer 1 Report

1. The Introduction section should begin with a general definition of the problem, followed by a thorough literature review. The Introduction should conclude by emphasizing the contribution of this study to the existing literature. Any other discussions or narratives should be presented in the section dedicated to defining a separate problem, which can be placed after the Introduction section. 

2. The study's contribution to the literature and its novelty should be adequately highlighted.

3. The existing literature studies have not been sufficiently discussed.

4. The results obtained in the study have not been compared with the methods provided in the literature.

5. The Conclusion section should be supported by numerical results.

Reviewer 2 Report

1. To enhance the novelty, I suggest the authors add some relevant literatus to enhance the novelty of the diagnosability integrated design method based on graph theory. Hence, we can get an idea of which part of the novelty have you highlighted.

2. I suggest in the authors improve the experimental analysis by studying from the conceptual side and adding some relevant reports.

3. As you mentioned in the last part of the conclusion that "the diagnosis scheme designed by the method of this paper has high accuracy and stability.." So, what is your recommendation for the real application? 

 

I suggest the authors improve grammatically and consider the correlation of each paragraph. If the idea is still the same, it should be in one paragraph.

Reviewer 3 Report

This structure of the paper presented at the end of Section 1 does not correspond to the real structure of the paper.

Why do not merge sections 2 and 3?

Why do not present the Research Questions that the paper pretend to answer?

Reviewer 4 Report

The author has chosen research topic is interesting but there is some flaws are listed below, have to address carefully

1. In introduction section, have to include the motivation of the research and also separate literature review section.

2. Have to emphasize the recent literature survey and give some statistical reports.

3. The frame work of the research should clearly present with the help of the block diagram or flowchart.

4. Fig 5 and fig 10, the content or text is not clear. 

5. Comparison of the analysis should be included with other state of art methods related to this work.

6. Ensure all the references are cited in the manuscript and some of the references are not in the proper template. 

Ensure the language of the paper presented in this work and also check entire grammar too.

Reviewer 5 Report

In the manuscript entitled «A diagnosability integrated design approach based on graph theory» the authors propose a fault diagnostics method developed on the basis of the integrated diagnosability design algorithm.

This article is good and can be published.

I have a few comments:

Line 171 Missing capital letter

Line 174 Figure 3. Missing capital letter

In the Conclusion, the authors may need to describe the applicability of this method to various areas of scientific research. As an example, in optics, algorithms based on Shannon's entropy (10.1364/AO.464178) are also actively used.

Minor editing of English language required

Round 2

Reviewer 1 Report

The authors have made updates to address the problems that both myself and the other reviewers had pointed out in the previous evaluation report. I think the article is now much improved.

Reviewer 3 Report

Dear authors

Please eliminate the "Error! Reference source not found." in page 10.

After that, the paper can be published.

Congratulations.
