摘要

This study proposes an explainable machine learning framework based on SHAP (SHapley Additive exPlanations) for predicting the remaining useful life (RUL) of turbine systems. Using the NASA C-MAPSS dataset, we evaluate eight machine learning algorithms and find that LightGBM achieves the best performance, with a root mean square error (RMSE) of 36.68, mean absolute error (MAE) of 26.53, and coefficient of determination ( \(R^2\) ) of 0.713. SHAP analysis identifies sensor measurements 11 and 15, along with operational cycles (time_in_cycles), as the most influential features for RUL prediction. The analysis further reveals critical threshold values (approximately 0.5) for key sensors and highlights significant nonlinear interaction effects among them. This work not only enhances prediction accuracy but also offers interpretable insights to support decision-making in predictive maintenance, thereby demonstrating significant potential for health management in fluid dynamic systems.
