Similarity-based prediction methods utilize degradation trend analysis based on degradation indicators (DIs). These methods are gaining prominence in industrial predictive maintenance because they effectively address prognostics for machines with unknown failure mechanisms. However, current studies often neglect the discrepancies in degradation trends when constructing DIs from multi-sensor data and lack automatic normalization of operating regimes during feature fusion. In this study, a feature fusion methodology based on a signal-to-noise ratio metric that leverages slow feature analysis (SFA) is proposed. This customized metric utilizes SFA to quantify degradation trend discrepancies of constructed DIs, while automatically filtering out the effects of multiple operating regimes during feature fusion. The effectiveness and superiority of the proposed method are demonstrated using publicly available aero-engine and rolling bearing datasets.
