Abstract:The rapid expansion of records creates significant challenges in management, including retention and disposition, appraisal, and organization. Our study underscores the benefits of integrating artificial intelligence (AI) within the broad realm of archival science. In this work, we start by performing a thorough analysis to understand the current use of AI in this area and identify the techniques employed to address challenges. Subsequently, we document the results of our review according to specific criteria. Our findings highlight key AI driven strategies that promise to streamline record-keeping processes and enhance data retrieval efficiency. We also demonstrate our review process to ensure transparency regarding our methodology. Furthermore, this review not only outlines the current state of AI in archival science and records management but also lays the groundwork for integrating new techniques to transform archival practices. Our research emphasizes the necessity for enhanced collaboration between the disciplines of artificial intelligence and archival science.
Abstract:Lithium-ion batteries (Li-ion) have revolutionized energy storage technology, becoming integral to our daily lives by powering a diverse range of devices and applications. Their high energy density, fast power response, recyclability, and mobility advantages have made them the preferred choice for numerous sectors. This paper explores the seamless integration of Prognostics and Health Management within batteries, presenting a multidisciplinary approach that enhances the reliability, safety, and performance of these powerhouses. Remaining useful life (RUL), a critical concept in prognostics, is examined in depth, emphasizing its role in predicting component failure before it occurs. The paper reviews various RUL prediction methods, from traditional models to cutting-edge data-driven techniques. Furthermore, it highlights the paradigm shift toward deep learning architectures within the field of Li-ion battery health prognostics, elucidating the pivotal role of deep learning in addressing battery system complexities. Practical applications of PHM across industries are also explored, offering readers insights into real-world implementations.This paper serves as a comprehensive guide, catering to both researchers and practitioners in the field of Li-ion battery PHM.
Abstract:Lithium Ion (Li-ion) batteries have gained widespread popularity across various industries, from powering portable electronic devices to propelling electric vehicles and supporting energy storage systems. A central challenge in managing Li-ion batteries effectively is accurately predicting their Remaining Useful Life (RUL), which is a critical measure for proactive maintenance and predictive analytics. This study presents a novel approach that harnesses the power of multiple denoising modules, each trained to address specific types of noise commonly encountered in battery data. Specifically we use a denoising auto-encoder and a wavelet denoiser to generate encoded/decomposed representations, which are subsequently processed through dedicated self-attention transformer encoders. After extensive experimentation on the NASA and CALCE datasets, we are able to characterize a broad spectrum of health indicator estimations under a set of diverse noise patterns. We find that our reported error metrics on these datasets are on par or better with the best reported in recent literature.
