  • Information processing method and information processing apparatus used for detecting a sign of malfunction of mechanical equipment
    Patent number: 11687058
    Abstract: An information processing apparatus includes a controller. The controller is configured to obtain a measurement value of a sensor provided in mechanical equipment. The controller is configured to generate a first model by machine learning using the measurement value of the sensor measured in a first period of the mechanical equipment and store the first model in a storage portion. The controller is configured to generate a second model by machine learning using the measurement value of the sensor measured in a second period after a trigger event has occurred in the mechanical equipment and store the second model in the storage portion. The controller is configured to determine a state of the mechanical equipment by using the measurement value of the sensor measured in an evaluation period and the first model and the second model stored in the storage portion.
