Determining the Method of Predictive Maintenance for Aircraft Engine Using Machine Learning

Abstract

Predictive maintenance (PdM) is indicated state of the machine to perform a schedule of maintenance based on historical data, integrity factors, statistical inference methods, and engineering approaches that are currently often applied to aircraft maintenance. The Predictive maintenance on aircraft to avoid the worse event (failure) and get information about the status of aircraft machines by applied on Machine Learning (ML) to get high accuracy and precision. The research aims to look for the method and technique of ML, which is the best applied on PdM for aircraft in accuracy indicators. The techniques of ML have been divided by classification and regression, which are compared on three ML methods: Random Forest (RF), Support Vector Machine (SVM), and simple LSTM. The result of the study for classification technique are LSTM 98,7%, SVM 95,6%, and RF 900,3%. On other hand, Regression technique for ML result on MAE and RMSE are LSTM 13,55 and 22,13, SVM 15,77 and 20,51, RF 15,06 and 19,98. Classify technique is better and faster than regression when calculating the PdM on an aircraft engine. The LSTM method of ML is the best applied to it because of the accuracy higher and time process faster than other methods in this study. Finally, the LSTM method is highly recommended while using with classify technique on ML to determine the PdM on an aircraft engine.
