An improved similarity-based prognostic algorithm for RUL estimation using an RNN autoencoder scheme

Remaining useful life (RUL) estimation of a degrading system is the major prognostic activity in many industry applications. This paper presents an improved version of the similarity-based curve matching method for the remaining useful life estimation of a mechanical system, which is a companion paper of our previous work on RUL estimations using a bidirectional recurrent neural network (RNN) based autoencoder scheme. We propose a …
