Estimating Remaining Useful Life with Linear Mixed Effects Models

Provides tools for estimating the Remaining Useful Life (RUL) of degrading systems using linear mixed-effects models and creating a health index. It supports both univariate and multivariate degradation signals. For multivariate inputs, the signals are merged into a univariate health index prior to modeling. Linear and exponential degradation trajectories are supported (the latter using a log transformation). Remaining Useful Life (RUL) distributions are estimated using Bayesian updating for new units, enabling on-site predictive maintenance. Based on the methodology of Liu and Huang (2016) .
