Description
Summary:Accurate aeroengine remaining useful life (RUL) prediction plays a vital role in ensuring safe operation and reducing maintenance losses. In order to improve the accuracy of aeroengine RUL prediction, an aeroengine RUL prediction method based on the Transformer model is proposed, which gives greater weight to the characteristics of important time steps through self attention mechanism, and solves the memory degradation problem caused by too long sequence in engine RUL prediction, and excavates the complex mapping relationship between input features and aeroengine RUL. Experiments on the C-MAPSS data set show that the Transformer model can better predict the aeroengine RUL based on the aeroengine degradation data. Compared with the long short term memory network model, the root mean square error of the two sub data sets is reduced by 6.57% and 5.63% respectively.
