OpenAlex İngilizce

Li-ion batteries are integral to various applications, ranging from electric vehicles to mobile devices, because of their high energy density and user friendliness. The assessment of the Li-ion state of heath stands as a crucial research domain, aiming to innovate safer and more effective battery management systems that can predict and promptly report any operational discrepancies. To achieve this, an array of machine learning (ML) and artificial intelligence (AI) methodologies have been employed to analyze data from Li-ion batteries, facilitating the estimation of critical parameters like state of charge (SoC) and state of health (SoH). The continuous enhancement of ML and AI algorithm efficiency remains a pivotal focus of scholarly inquiry. Our study distinguishes itself by separately evaluating traditional machine learning frameworks and advanced deep learning paradigms to determine their respective efficacy in predictive modeling. We dissected the performances of an assortment of models, spanning from conventional ML techniques to sophisticated, hybrid deep learning constructs. Our investigation provides a granular analysis of each model’s utility, promoting an informed and strategic integration of ML and AI in Li-ion battery state of health prognostics. Specifically, a utilization of machine learning algorithms such as Random Forests (RFs) and eXtreme Gradient Boosting (XGBoost), alongside regression models like Elastic Net and foundational neural network approaches including Multilayer Perceptron (MLP) were studied. Furthermore, our research investigated the enhancement of time series analysis using intricate models like Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs) and Recurrent Neural Networks (RNNs) and their outcomes with those of hybrid models, including a RNN-long short-term memory (LSTM), CNN-LSTM, CNN-Gated Recurrent Unit (GRU) and RNN-GRU. Comparative evaluations reveal that the RNN-LSTM configuration achieved a Mean Squared Error (MSE) of 0.043, R-Squared of 0.758, Root Mean Square Error (RMSE) of 0.208, and Mean Absolute Error (MAE) of 0.124, whereas the CNN-LSTM framework reported an MSE of 0.039, R-Squared of 0.782, RMSE of 0.197, and MAE of 0.122, underscoring the potential of deep learning-based hybrid models in advancing the accuracy of battery state of health assessments.
