Raw data is received from an industrial machine. The industrial machine includes one or more sensors that obtain the data, and the sensors transmit the raw data to a central processing center. The raw data is received at the central processing center and an unsupervised kernel-based algorithm is recursively applied to the raw data. The application of the unsupervised kernel-based algorithm is effective to learn characteristics of the raw data and to determine from the raw data a class of acceptable data. The class of acceptable data is data having a degree of confidence above a predetermined level that the data was obtained during a healthy operation of the machine. The acceptable data is successively determined and refined upon each application of the unsupervised kernel-based algorithm. The unsupervised kernel-based algorithm is executed until a condition is met.

Apparatus and method for screening data for kernel regression model building

According to some embodiments, system and methods are provided, comprising receiving, at a machine health module, non-parametric data associated with operation of an installed product; generating, via the machine health module, a health status for at least one of a failure type and a remaining useful life of the installed product, based on the received non-parametric data; and generating an operating response of the installed product based on the generated health status. Numerous other aspects are provided.
