Kernel recursive least square tracker and long-short term memory ensemble based battery health prognostic model

A data-driven approach is developed to predict the future capacity of lithium-ion batteries (LIBs) in this work. The empirical mode decomposition (EMD), kernel recursive least square tracker (KRLST), and long short-term memory (LSTM) are used to derive the proposed approach. First, the LIB capacity data is split into local regeneration and monotonic global degradation using the EMD approach. Next, the KRLST is used to track the decomposed intrinsic mode functions, and the residual signal is predicted using the LSTM sub-model. Finally, all the predicted intrinsic mode functions and the residual are ensembled to get the future capacity. The experimental and comparative analysis validates the high accuracy (RIVSE of 0.00103) of the proposed ensemble approach compared to Gaussian process regression and LSTM fused model. Further nore, two times lesser error than other fused models makes this approach an efficient tool for battery health prognostics.
