Predicting the remaining useful life of a system or a component enables taking preemptive mitigating actions, thereby reducing the downtime and improving the system reliability and availability. Yet, there is a set of different actions that can be taken if the remaining useful life of a system is known, including maintenance actions aiming to prolong the remaining useful life or preemptive replacements of the component. However, a preemptive replacement at the end of the remaining useful life may not be the optimal action in terms of system performance. A more efficient use of the knowledge on the fault evolution in time is to use this information for proactive control of the remaining useful life and the system performance. The project aims at developing reinforcement-learning approaches for optimal fault mitigation and system health management. A collaboration with the Prognostics Center of Excellence (PCoE) at NASA Ames Research Center is foreseen for this project.
