Description
Summary:Remaining Useful Life (RUL) plays a critical role in prognostics and health management systems. It helps increase reliability and safety for the equipment used in the modern industry. The new idea proposed is the Mamba deep learning model, which aims to find a good balance between predictive performance and computation cost. This paper presents a multimodal RUL prediction model, Cau–BiMamba–LSTM, using causal discovery, a bidirectional Mamba (BiMamba), attention mechanism, and Long Short-Term Memory (LSTM). The framework utilizes maximum information transfer entropy and simple exponential smoothing in building a causal graph model that extracts groups of feature variable groupsLSTM performs long-range dependencies; the attention mechanism dynamically focuses attention according to the temporal context; finally, the bidirectional state space model captures all contextual information over time for a richer insight into underlying data patterns. Tests conducted on the C-MAPSS dataset confirm that this model achieves superior predictive accuracy and robustness. Moreover, the model achieves high predictive performance in very complex, long time–series and provides fast responses.
