Abstract: Supervised learning is implemented to improve the accuracy of automated diagnoses performed by monitoring units installed at a machine. The monitoring units perform indicator acquisition and automated diagnoses based on a Bayesian model derived in accordance with the machine's known configuration. Raw data is collected, including machine vibration data and other diagnostic data. The data is analyzed to diagnose for specific fault defect assumptions so as to generate the automated diagnoses results and a rating for overall health of the machine. The results are uploaded to an external environment that can be accessed by an expert for review and correction. Based upon the expert's corrections, the Bayesian model is adjusted using supervised learning to improve the automated diagnoses performed by the monitoring units.
