Abstract Accurate prediction of product failures and the need for repair services become critical for various reasons, including understanding the warranty performance of manufacturers, defining cost-efficient repair strategies, and compliance with safety standards. The purpose of this study is to use machine learning tools to analyze several parameters crucial for achieving a robust repair service system, including the number of repairs, the time of the next repair ticket or product failure, and the time to repair. A large dataset of over 530,000 repairs and maintenance of medical devices has been investigated by employing the Support Vector Machine (SVM) tool. SVM with four kernel functions is used to forecast the timing of the next failure or repair request in the system for two different products and two different failure types, namely random failure and physical damage. Frequency analysis is also conducted to explore the product quality level based on product failure and the time to repair it. Besides, the best probability distributions are fitted for the number of failures, the time between failures, and the time to repair. The results reveal the value of data analytics and machine learning tools in analyzing post-market product performance and the cost of repair and maintenance operations.

Early detection of pancreatic cancer is difficult, and thus many cases of pancreatic cancer are diagnosed late. When pancreatic cancer is detected, the cancer is usually well developed. Machine learning is an approach that is part of artificial intelligence and can detect pancreatic cancer early. This paper proposes a machine learning approach with the twin support vector machine (TWSVM) method as a new approach to detecting pancreatic cancer early. TWSVM aims to find two symmetry planes such that each plane has a distance close to one data class and as far as possible from another data class. TWSVM is fast in building a model and has good generalizations. However, TWSVM requires kernel functions to operate in the feature space. The kernel functions commonly used are the linear kernel, polynomial kernel, and radial basis function (RBF) kernel. This paper uses the TWSVM method with these kernels and compares the best kernel for use by TWSVM to detect pancreatic cancer early. In this paper, the TWSVM model with each kernel is evaluated using a 10-fold cross validation. The results obtained are that TWSVM based on the kernel is able to detect pancreatic cancer with good performance. However, the best kernel obtained is the RBF kernel, which produces an accuracy of 98%, a sensitivity of 97%, a specificity of 100%, and a running time of around 1.3408 s.

In recent years, artificial intelligence technology has been widely used in fault prediction and health management (PHM). The machine learning algorithm is widely used in the condition monitoring of rotating machines, and normal and fault data can be obtained through the data acquisition and monitoring system. After analyzing the data and establishing a model, the system can automatically learn the features from the input data to predict the failure of the maintenance and diagnosis equipment, which is important for motor maintenance. This research proposes a medium Gaussian support vector machine (SVM) method for the application of machine learning and constructs a feature space by extracting the characteristics of the vibration signal collected on the spot based on experience. Different methods were used to cluster and classify features to classify motor health. The influence of different Gaussian kernel functions, such as fine, medium, and coarse, on the performance of the SVM algorithm was analyzed. The experimental data verify the performance of various models through the data set released by the Case Western Reserve University Motor Bearing Data Center. As the motor often has noise interference in the actual application environment, a simulated Gaussian white noise was added to the original vibration data in order to verify the performance of the research method in a noisy environment. The results summarize the classification results of related motor data sets derived recently from the use of motor fault detection and diagnosis using different machine learning algorithms. The results show that the medium Gaussian SVM method improves the reliability and accuracy of motor bearing fault estimation, detection, and identification under variable crack-size and load conditions. This paper also provides a detailed discussion of the predictive analytical capabilities of machine learning algorithms, which can be used as a reference for the future motor predictive maintenance analysis of electric vehicles.

Currently, the support vector machine (SVM) regarded as one of supervised machine learning algorithm that provides analysis of data for classification and regression. This technique is implemented in many fields such as bioinformatics, face recognition, text and hypertext categorization, generalized predictive control and many other different areas. The performance of SVM is affected by some parameters, which are used in the training phase, and the settings of parameters can have a profound impact on the resulting engine’s implementation. This paper investigated the SVM performance based on value of gamma parameter with used kernels. It studied the impact of gamma value on (SVM) efficiency classifier using different kernels on various datasets descriptions. SVM classifier has been implemented by using Python. The kernel functions that have been investigated are polynomials, radial based function (RBF) and sigmoid. UC irvine machine learning repository is the source of all the used datasets. Generally, the results show uneven effect on the classification accuracy of three kernels on used datasets. The changing of the gamma value taking on consideration the used dataset influences polynomial and sigmoid kernels. While the performance of RBF kernel function is more stable with different values of gamma as its accuracy is slightly changed.

Abstract Products often experience different failure and repair needs during their lifespan. Prediction of the type of failure is crucial to the maintenance team for various reasons, such as realizing the device performance, creating standard strategies for repair, and analyzing the trade-off between cost and profit of repair. This study aims to apply machine learning tools to forecast failure types of medical devices and help the maintenance team properly decides on repair strategies based on a limited dataset. Two types of medical devices are used as the case study. The main challenge resides in using the limited attributes of the dataset to forecast product failure type. First, a multilayer perceptron (MLP) algorithm is used as a regression model to forecast three attributes, including the time of next failure, repair time, and repair time z-scores. Then, eight classification models, including Naïve Bayes with Bernoulli (NB-Bernoulli), Gaussian (NB-Gaussian), Multinomial (NB-Multinomial) model, Support Vector Machine with linear (SVM-Linear), polynomial (SVM-Poly), sigmoid (SVM-Sigmoid), and radical basis (SVM-RBF) function, and K-Nearest Neighbors (KNN) are used to forecast the failure type. Finally, Gaussian Mixture Model (GMM) is used to identify maintenance conditions for each product. The results reveal that the classification models could forecast failure type with similar performance, although the attributes of the dataset were limited.
