Applications of Machine Learning in Aircraft Maintenance

Journal Title: Journal of Engineering Management and Systems Engineering - Year 2023, Vol 2, Issue 1

Abstract

Aircraft maintenance is an expansive multidisciplinary field which entails robust design and optimization of extensive maintenance operations and procedures; encompassing the fault identification, detection and rectification, and overhauling, repair or modification of aircraft systems, subsystems, and components, as well as the scheduling for various maintenance operations, in compliance with the aviation standards; in order to predict, pre-empt and prevent failures and thus ensure the continual reliability of aircraft. Advances in Big Data Analytics (BDA) and artificial intelligence techniques have revolutionized predictive maintenance operations. Predictive maintenance is making big strides in the aerospace sector accompanied by a variety of prognostic health management options. Artificial intelligence algorithms have recently been extensively applied to optimize aircraft maintenance systems and operations. Several researchers have proposed, analysed, and investigated the applications of Artificial Intelligence (AI), Machine Learning (ML), and Deep Learning (DL) based data analytics for predictive maintenance of aircraft systems, subsystems, and components. This paper provides a comprehensive review of the ML techniques like Multilayer Perceptron (MLP), Logic Regression (LR), Random Forest (RF), Artificial Neural Network (ANN), Support Vector Regression (SVR), Linear Regression (LR), and other common ML techniques for their present implementation and potential future applications in aircraft maintenance.
