The purpose of this DAG is to manage the training of predictive models specifically designed for equipment maintenance within the Defense and Aerospace sector. It leverages historical data and extracted features to create models that can forecast maintenance needs and improve asset reliability. The primary data sources include equipment operational logs, maintenance records, and environmental data. The ingestion pipeline is triggered by the availability of new datasets or the necessity to refresh existing models, ensuring that the predictive capabilities remain relevant and accurate. The processing steps begin with model selection, where various algorithms are evaluated based on their suitability for the data characteristics. This is followed by the training phase, where the selected models are trained on the historical datasets. Performance evaluation is conducted to assess the accuracy and reliability of the models, employing quality control measures to ensure they meet predefined performance criteria. These measures include cross-validation and threshold checks to validate model predictions against actual outcomes. Once the models are trained and validated, they are deployed for real-time predictions, providing actionable insights for maintenance scheduling and resource allocation. Monitoring key performance indicators (KPIs), such as prediction accuracy and model drift, is essential to ensure ongoing effectiveness. The business value derived from this DAG includes reduced downtime, optimized maintenance operations, and enhanced decision-making capabilities, ultimately leading to cost savings and improved operational readiness.
