Some embodiments provide a program that retrieves a set of notifications describing failures that occurred on a set of monitored devices. The program further determines a set of topics based on the set of notifications. The program also determines failure modes associated with the set of topic from a plurality of failure modes defined for the set of monitored devices. The program further determines failure modes associated with the set of notifications based on the set of topics and the failure modes associated with the set of topics. The program also receives a particular notification that includes a particular set of words describing a failure that occurred on a particular monitored device in the set of monitored devices. The program further determines a failure mode associated with the particular notification based on the particular set of words and the determined failure modes associated with the set of notifications.

Determining failure modes of devices based on text analysis

Techniques for predicting failure mode specific reliability characteristics of tangible equipment using parametric probability models are disclosed. In some example embodiments, a computer system receives a model training configuration entered via a user interface, trains a failure curve model for a selected failure mode of a selected equipment model based on the model training configuration at a time indicated by training schedule data, and generates analytical data for the selected failure mode of the selected equipment model using the trained failure curve model. The failure mode corresponds to a specific way in which the equipment model is capable of failing. In some example embodiments, the training of the failure curve model comprises determining a shape parameter and a scale parameter for the failure curve model based on a fitting of failure event data to a continuous probability distribution, and storing the parameters for use in generating the analytical data.
