Remaining Useful Life Prediction of Aircraft Engines Using Hybrid Model Based on Artificial Intelligence Techniques
Bibliographic record
Abstract
This paper proposes a hybrid model using long short-term memory (LSTM) and recurrent neural network (RNN) layers. The selection of hyperparameters of the hybrid model is automated and optimized via a genetic algorithm. The efficacy of this model is tested on NASA's C-MAPSS aircraft turbofan engine data sets for remaining useful life (RUL) predictions. The proposed model provides RUL predictions with root mean square error values that are competitive, and often times better when compared to other models in the literature. A time window approach is adopted and various values are tested to show the effectiveness of different hybrid models with convolutional layers. Given the temporal nature of the data, the hybrid and CNN models are compared by varying the time window size of the data input. It is found that for data sets with a single operating condition and a variable number of faults, the deep CNN provided the best results. Besides, the data sets with single operating conditions are less sensitive to the time window size when compared to data sets with a greater number of operating conditions. The hybrid model provides the best results when compared to the deep CNN, whilst varying the time size window. For data sets with a greater number of operating conditions, the sensitivity to the change in time window size was much greater. The effectiveness of the ability of CNN layers to extract features from raw sensor data is also tested. It is found that the CNN layers can extract higher-level features from raw noisy sensor data. This shows that an end-to-end prognostics model is possible using CNN layers to extract features from noisy data and no separate data preprocessing is required. Finally, the proposed hybrid model shows promising results in remaining useful life prediction of aircraft engines.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
