A Feature Extraction and Analysis Method for Battery Health Monitoring

Batteries are widely applied in industrial systems, promoting industrial production efficiency. The system prognosis needs to establish a battery health monitoring model and maintain regular maintenance, improving reliability and safety while reducing unnecessary economic losses. An accurate data-driven state-of-health (SOH) estimation method is crucial, as it mainly relies on the information related to battery SOH values in the extracted features. Therefore, we propose a statistical-based feature extraction method, which makes it physically meaningful and effective. To explore more information, we propose a feature analysis framework to analyze battery features, including visualization, correlation, and importance analysis. We utilize a random forest regression model as an effective learner and validate it based on NASA’s real-world dataset. The feature analysis contents are beneficial for understanding the role and importance of features in SOH estimation tasks, which can also provide an extended scenario for feature extraction of batteries.
