How Computer Vision is Changing the New Way of Health Data Analysis

As part of maintenance improvement on helicopters, Airbus Helicopters has made available a proactive analysis service based on Health and Usage Monitoring System data generated during the flight. The present paper describes the new approach used to detect and classify any changes in time series behavior thanks to A.I. (Artificial Intelligence) especially computer vision. This new approach is more efficient and relevant than the classical approach based one statistical law [Ref 1]; in fact, it is acting, as the human eye, which is able to identify easily any abrupt change on the time series, and classifies it, whether Machine learning or Deep Neural Networks both have shown excellent results in term of classification accuracy. First part of this paper highlights how the learning data were prepared, then the second and the third parts give more details about how the time series are transformed into image presentation and how the different Artificial Intelligence models were selected and feed, ultimately the obtained results.
