  • Publication number: 20230401899
    Abstract: A method, apparatus, system for managing a maintenance for a component in a vehicle. Sensor data is received for the vehicle. Target parameters are predicted using behavior machine learning models trained using first training data to predict the target parameters for a normal behavior of the component operating in a tolerance, wherein the target parameters characterize behavior of the component. Prediction metrics are determined from predicted values for the target parameters predicted by behavior machine learning models and actual values for the target parameters. Whether the component will fall out of the tolerance after a time period is predicted using the prediction metrics and a maintenance machine learning model trained using second training data to predict whether the maintenance is needed for the component, wherein the second training data comprises historical prediction metrics determined for the target parameters.

  • Patent number: 11656146
    Abstract: A diagnostic system for a closed fluid system is provided. The closed fluid system includes a first fluid subsystem and a second fluid subsystem connected using a valve or valve/actuator. The diagnostic system includes a first sensor disposed in the first fluid subsystem, a second sensor disposed in the second fluid subsystem and a computer. The computer receives first time-ordered fluid level measurements and second time-ordered fluid level measurements from respectively the first sensor and the second sensor and performs a comparison of first fluid level of the first fluid subsystem and second fluid level of the second fluid subsystem. The computer produces a notification indicating a predicted transfer of hydraulic fluid when the first time-ordered fluid level measurements and the second time-ordered fluid level measurements have at least a threshold divergence and outputs the notification for display to a user.

  • Patent number: 11118936
    Abstract: A method for performing an operation on a flight sensor parameter includes receiving instructions indicating a description of a flight sensor parameter and an operation to be performed on the flight sensor parameter. The method includes generating executable code based on the instructions indicating the description and the operation. The method includes, after generating the executable code, associating the executable code with flight sensor data from one or more sensors. The flight sensor parameter includes a variable of the flight sensor data. The method further includes executing the executable code at a processor using the flight sensor data as an input to generate an output that indicates results of the operation.
