FedCMAPSS: A Benchmark for Federated Learning in Remaining Useful Life Estimation

FedCMAPSS is a new benchmark for federated learning applied to remaining useful life (RUL) estimation, built on the NASA C‑MAPSS dataset. It defines five standardized tasks that mimic real‑world industrial scenarios, from ideal IID conditions to highly heterogeneous data distributions. The paper evaluates state‑of‑the‑art federated optimization algorithms across multiple neural architectures, providing reproducible baselines and publicly available code and data splits.

FreqCondNorm: Towards Cross-domain Predictive Maintenance through a Frequency-Conditioned Transformer Foundation Model

The paper introduces FreqCondNorm, a Transformer-based architecture that adds a frequency-conditioned normalization layer to unify heterogeneous time-series data for predictive maintenance. The model is pretrained on five public datasets using masked auto‑encoding and contrastive learning, achieving 99.2% accuracy on CWRU and 82.1% zero‑shot accuracy on MFPT, showing strong transfer across sampling frequencies. However, it does not improve remaining useful life prediction, indicating a mismatch between pretraining and RUL objectives that requires further study.

Benchmarking Hybrid Deep Learning Architectures for Predictive Maintenance in Industry 4.0

The study evaluates six deep learning architectures for predictive maintenance in Industry 4.0, focusing on Recurrent Neural Networks (RNNs) and Transformers. It finds that Transformers perform well on stable, slow-moving data but overreact to noisy, chaotic data, whereas a hybrid model combining an LSTM layer with a Transformer layer better filters noise and delivers more consistent predictions. The hybrid approach improves accuracy and reliability across varying levels of data volatility.

Quantile-Led Feature Extraction for Multi-Horizon Predictive Maintenance in Industrial Manufacturing Systems

The paper introduces a quantile‑led feature‑extraction framework for predictive maintenance that separates representation learning from downstream modeling. Using a dual‑stage MLP‑QRNN hierarchy, it learns a ten‑quantile distribution per sensor and refines a mid‑tail quantile set into compact, channel‑resolved features. Experiments on 72 machines across nine facilities show that increasing the retained mid‑tail quantiles improves short‑term F1 scores, and that horizon‑conditioned extractors outperform a fixed short‑horizon extractor, demonstrating that feature extraction should be horizon‑dependent rather than fixed preprocessing.

AI-Driven Predictive Maintenance with Environmental Context Integration for Connected Vehicles: Simulation, Benchmarking, and Field Validation

arXiv:2603. 13343v3 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Predictive maintenance for connected vehicles offers the potential to reduce unexpected breakdowns and improve fleet reliability, but most existing systems rely exclusively on internal diagnostic signals and are validated on simulated or industrial benchmark data.
