Abstract

In this paper, we propose a prototype similarity-based approach of estimating the remaining useful life (RUL) of turbofan engine data using the singular spectrum analysis and the long-short term memory (SSA-LSTM) neural networks algorithm. The algorithm consists of two steps. First, the optimal window length of the trajectory matrix of the dataset is empirically determined from a prototype dataset. Second, the estimation of the RUL of the target datasets is performed using the window length parameter obtained from the first step. The validity of the proposed algorithm is verified by testing with 200 turbofan engine datasets. The results are shown to have a significant improvement in the performance of the RUL estimation over the existing LSTM algorithm.
