Data-driven rapid lifetime prediction method for lithium-ion batteries under diverse fast charging protocols

Abstract

Accurate lithium-ion battery lifetime prediction is essential for equipment maintenance and safety assurance in practical applications. The influence of different charge protocols on the lifetime varies greatly, which raises tremendous challenges for rapid lifetime prediction. In this paper, a comprehensive data-driven rapid lifetime prediction method for batteries under diverse fast charging protocols is proposed. It straightforwardly establishes the relationship between the charging conditions and the impacts on battery lifetime. A deep neural network model with the Bayesian optimization algorithm for hyperparameter search (BOA-DNN) and three traditional shallow machine learning algorithms consisting of support vector machine (SVM), Gaussian process regression (GPR), and extreme gradient boosting (XGBoost) are employed. The verification is performed on an authoritative and popular dataset with 69 types of distinct fast charging conditions. The eventual results indicate that the proposed approach has attained reliable performance of battery lifetime degradation trajectory and battery end-of-life (EOL) prediction, in which the BOA-DNN model outperforms SVM, GPR, and XGBoost. Especially in battery EOL prediction, the prediction mean absolute percentage error of the BOA-DNN model is below 3.58%.
