Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

With the widespread application of electronic equipment in fields such as industrial automation, aerospace, healthcare, and consumer electronics, their reliability and lifespan have become critical issues. Prognostics and health management (PHM) offers effective solutions for predicting equipment failures and extending their lifespan. In recent years, with the rapid advancement of artificial intelligence (AI) technology, AI-driven PHM systems have shown tremendous potential in enhancing the predictive capabilities and management efficiency of equipment. As the reliance on electronic systems increases across various industries, the demand for reliable and trustworthy AI solutions to ensure their optimal performance and safety has become paramount. However, the issue of 'trustworthiness' in AI models, particularly in terms of transparency, fairness, safety, and reliability, remains a significant challenge.

This Special Issue seeks original contributions that address the challenges of developing trustworthy AI solutions for PHM in electronic equipment. We invite research that focuses on explainability, transparency, reliability, and robustness in AI models, as well as their applications in PHM. Submissions may explore the use of AI in fault detection, diagnosis, and prognostics, along with innovative approaches that ensure the safety and reliability of AI-driven PHM systems.

Topics of interest include, but are not limited to, the following:

  • Trustworthy AI models for predictive maintenance in electronic systems.
  • Explainable AI techniques in PHM for electronic equipment.
  • Robust and reliable AI models for PHM.
  • Uncertainty quantification in AI-driven PHM systems.
  • AI-based predictive maintenance in industrial electronics.
  • Digital twin-assisted reliable AI models for electronic equipment.
  • Data-driven approaches for health assessment and remaining useful life estimation of electronic components.
  • Security and privacy preservation in AI-based electronic equipment health management.
  • Case studies demonstrating the implementation of trustworthy AI in electronic PHM solutions.

In the petroleum industry, accurately identifying downhole fluid is crucial for understanding fluid composition and estimating crude oil contamination and other properties. Near-infrared (NIR) spectrum analysis technology has achieved successful fluid identification applications due to its non-destructive nature and high efficiency. However, for real-time downhole fluid analysis, the NIR spectrometer faces challenges such as miniaturization and cost effectiveness. To address these issues, we construct a real-time downhole fluid identification system in this work. First, we propose a lightweight and deployable fluid identification model by integrating the successive projections algorithm (SPA) and a quadratic neural network (QNN). The SPA allows for spectral feature selection, and the QNN acts as an efficient identification model. Consequently, we use only four specific wavelengths with a one-hidden-layer QNN to achieve high identification accuracy. Second, we devise a hardware deployment scheme for real-time identification. We use four laser diodes to replace conventional light sources, further saving space. The QNN is then deployed to the STM32 MCU to implement real-time identification. Computational and online experiments demonstrate that our system functions well in real-time fluid identification and can further estimate the oil contamination rate with acceptable error.
