An Attribute Oriented Induction based Methodology for Data Driven Predictive Maintenance (1912.00662v1)

Abstract: Attribute Oriented Induction (AOI) is a data mining algorithm used for extracting knowledge of relational data, taking into account expert knowledge. It is a clustering algorithm that works by transforming the values of the attributes and converting an instance into others that are more generic or ambiguous. In this way, it seeks similarities between elements to generate data groupings. AOI was initially conceived as an algorithm for knowledge discovery in databases, but over the years it has been applied to other areas such as spatial patterns, intrusion detection or strategy making. In this paper, AOI has been extended to the field of Predictive Maintenance. The objective is to demonstrate that combining expert knowledge and data collected from the machine can provide good results in the Predictive Maintenance of industrial assets. To this end we adapted the algorithm and used an LSTM approach to perform both the Anomaly Detection (AD) and the Remaining Useful Life (RUL). The results obtained confirm the validity of the proposal, as the methodology was able to detect anomalies, and calculate the RUL until breakage with considerable degree of accuracy.
