Abstract
A method for predicting a time to a failure condition of an asset includes a first model, trained to reconstruct input image pairs to resemble a healthy condition asset. Similarity coefficients are generated for respective historical image pairs that include a visible-light and infrared light image by use of the reconstructed image pair by the first model as a similarity base and the respective historical image pairs include a timestamp of image capture. A second model is trained to predict a time to a failure condition of the asset based on similarity coefficients and timestamps of real-time image pair capture, timestamps of an asset failure condition, and similarity coefficients of the respective historical images. Responsive to receipt of a first real-time image pair, the method computes a predicted time to the failure condition of the asset.
