Abstract

Maintaining equipment and machinery in industries is imperative for maximizing operational efficiency and prolonging their lifespan. The adoption of predictive maintenance enhances resource allocation, productivity, and product quality by proactively identifying and addressing potential equipment anomalies through rigorous data analysis before they escalate into critical issues. Consequently, these measures strengthen market competitiveness and generate favorable economic outcomes. In many applications, sensors operate at high frequencies or capture data over extended periods. This work introduces CONELPABO (Composite Networks Learning via Parallel Bayesian Optimization), a framework for analyzing long time series data, particularly for predicting the remaining useful life of a system or component. It uses a divide-and-conquer strategy to manage the exponential growth in the hyperparameter search space during Bayesian Optimization and to accelerate model training by 50%. Additionally, this strategy enables the training of deeper networks with limited resources. The usefulness of the framework is demonstrated through two case studies, in which it achieves state-of-the-art results, showing that CNN-CNN and RNN-RNN architectures are highly effective for long time-series data. These architectures outperform many existing approaches and challenge the common academic focus on CNN-RNN hybrids.
