Abstract: A method for predictive maintenance of a machine includes collecting feature data for the machine which includes a plurality of feature vectors. At least some of the feature vectors are standardized to facilitate compatibility between different vectors. At least some of the standardized feature vectors are transformed into corresponding two-dimensional feature vectors. At least some of the two-dimensional feature vectors are clustered together based on operating modes of the machine. Similar steps are performed on additional feature data collected from the machine. Recently gathered two-dimensional feature vectors are compared to previously clustered feature vectors to provide predictive maintenance information for the machine.
