The method preprocesses vibration signal data, produces preprocessed data, and sends the data to a life prediction model to realize life prediction. The vibration signal data is easy to obtain and the remaining life prediction is accurate.
[0021] 2. In the prior art, a large amount of input data with different features is usually required for model training. Data acquisition is difficult, the amount of feature data is large, it is difficult to use in practice, and the steps for preprocessing the data are complicated.

[0037] The smoothing process of the remaining life prediction result includes taking the first value of the prediction result as the starting value of the exponentially weighted moving average, setting the range of the smoothed result to between [0,1], and taking the smoothed result as the final output.
