Remaining Useful Life Prediction of Lithium-Ion Batteries by Using a Denoising Transformer-Based Neural Network

Abstract

In this study, we introduce a novel denoising transformer-based neural network (DTNN) model for predicting the remaining useful life (RUL) of lithium-ion batteries. The proposed DTNN model significantly outperforms traditional machine learning models and other deep learning architectures in terms of accuracy and reliability. Specifically, the DTNN achieved an R2 value of 0.991, a mean absolute percentage error (MAPE) of 0.632%, and an absolute RUL error of 3.2, which are superior to other models such as Random Forest (RF), Decision Trees (DT), Multilayer Perceptron (MLP), Recurrent Neural Network (RNN), Long Short-Term Memory (LSTM), Gated Recurrent Unit (GRU), Dual-LSTM, and DeTransformer. These results highlight the efficacy of the DTNN model in providing precise and reliable predictions for battery RUL, making it a promising tool for battery management systems in various applications.
