Abstract
Disclosed are a system, a computer-readable storage medium storing at least one program, and a computer-implemented method of remaining use estimation. An interface module receives measurement data indicative of a level of usage of an apparatus. A filter engine, based on first model data, generates a first value indicative of a probability that the RU of the apparatus reached a threshold RU value. The filter engine, based on second model data, generates a second value indicative of a probability of the received measurement data given that the RU of the apparatus reached the threshold RU value. The filter engine, based on the first and second values, generates output data that is indicative of a probability that the RU of the apparatus reached the threshold RU value.
Claims20
A system comprising:
- an interface module configured to receive measurement data of an apparatus, at least a portion of the measurement data being indicative of a level of usage of the apparatus;
- a data access module configured to access first and second model data of the apparatus, the first model data being indicative of occurrences of an event of usage of the apparatus matched to respective usage levels, the second model data being indicative of measurement quantities matched to respective remaining usage (RU) quantities;
- and
- a filter engine, including one or more processors, configured to:
- based on the first model data, generate a first value indicative of a probability that the RU of the apparatus reached a threshold RU value;
- based on the second model data, generate a second value indicative of a probability of the received measurement data given that the RU of the apparatus reached the threshold RU value;
- and
- based on the first and second values, generate output data that is indicative of a probability that the RU of the apparatus reached the threshold RU value.
A computer-implemented method of remaining use estimation, the computer-implemented method comprising:
- receiving measurement data of an apparatus, wherein at least a portion of the measurement data being indicative of a level of usage of the apparatus;
- accessing first and second model data of the apparatus, the first model data being indicative of occurrences of an event of usage of the apparatus matched to respective usage levels, the second model being indicative of measurement quantities matched to respective remaining usage (RU) quantities;
- based on the first model data, generating a first value indicative of a probability that the RU of the apparatus reached a threshold RU value given the received measurement data;
- based on the second model data, generating a second value indicative of a probability of the received measurement data given that the RU of the apparatus reached the threshold RU value;
- and
- by one or more processors and based on the first and second values, generating output data that is indicative of a probability that the RU of the apparatus reached the threshold RU value.
A machine-readable storage medium embodying instructions that, when executed by a machine, cause the machine to perform operations comprising:
- receiving measurement data of an apparatus, at least a portion of the measurement data being indicative of a level of usage of the apparatus;
- accessing first and second model data of the apparatus, the first model data being indicative of occurrences of an event of usage of the apparatus matched to respective usage levels, the second model being indicative of measurement quantities matched to respective remaining usage (RU) quantities;
- based on the first model data, determining a first value indicative of a probability that the RU of the apparatus reached a threshold RU value;
- based on the second model data, determining a second value indicative of a probability of the received measurement data given that the RU of the apparatus reached the threshold RU value;
- and
- based on the first and second values, determining output data that is indicative of a probability that the RU of the apparatus reached the threshold RU value.
