Abstract
Modern industrial systems including Turbofan Engine(s) are susceptible to failures induced by degradation. Therefore, accurate modeling of component health & Remaining Useful Life (RUL) is vital for reducing maintenance-related downtime. In this work, predictEngineLife, a Regression Framework implemented by leveraging LLM4TS Transformer architecture is introduced, & applicability of this Framework as general-purpose Baseline Model for multivariate forecasting tasks & Remaining Useful Life (RUL) estimation is evaluated. Framework validation is performed on: Electricity Load Diagrams (ECL) 2011–2014 Dataset for large-scale forecasting of hourly electricity demand, & NASA C-MAPSS FD001 sub-dataset for sensor-driven RUL Prediction. On both the dataset(s), Uniform windowing & Z-score normalization is performed to preserve long-range temporal structure. FD001 Inference is compared against TCN, Neural/SVR Regressor(s), & LSTM baselines. Inference results demonstrate that LLM4TS provides consistent end results with recent literature & enables Low-Rank Adaption-mediated fine-tuning on Time-Series (TS) Datasets.
