  • Patent number: 12638843
    Abstract: A system and method for prediction of failures and optimization, that can provide solution available for unsupervised learning models based on limited data that can predict different types of failure and pre-failure instances. The solution provides improvement upon previous methods of labelling by marking certain days data ahead of failure as belonging to failure data which will result in reduction of noisy data and improves good working condition data. The present invention helps with improved data quality due to labelling as the proposed method models complex distributions of feature vectors accurately and are better at finding deviations from normal data distribution which is used for detecting failures. The novel solution help to analyse and categorise the type of failures for PC Pumps currently deployed in CBM Fields for which failure days in advance can be predicted.
