  • Patent number: 10191116
    Abstract: A method of predicting battery test results includes using a battery test computer to predict a battery test result for a battery undergoing testing. The battery test computer comprises a tangible, non-transitory computer-readable medium storing a battery test management system implemented as one or more sets of instructions. The battery test management system includes a predictive module configured to predict the battery test result using less than all data required for the battery test to be complete, a validation module configured to validate the prediction, and a training module configured to re-train the predictive module based on results generated by the validation module. The battery test computer also includes processing circuitry configured to execute the one or more sets of instructions, and outputting, via a user interface, the prediction of the result and a confidence level associated with the prediction.
