Quantum machine learning based wind turbine condition monitoring: State of the art and future prospects
Abstract
Wind energy, as a popular renewable resource, has gained extensive development and application in recent decades. Effective condition monitoring and fault diagnosis are crucial for ensuring the reliable operation of wind turbines. While conventional machine learning methods have been widely used in wind turbine condition monitoring, these approaches often face challenges such as complex feature extraction, limited model generalization, and high computational costs when dealing with large-scale, high-dimensional, and complex datasets. The emergence of quantum computing has opened up a new paradigm of machine learning algorithms. Quantum machine learning combines the advantages of quantum computing and machine learning, with the potential to surpass classical computational capabilities. This paper firstly reviews applications and limitations of the state-of-the-art machine learning-based condition monitoring techniques for wind turbines. It then reviews the fundamentals of quantum computing, quantum machine learning algorithms and their applications, covering quantum-based feature extraction, classification and regression for fault detection and the use of quantum neural networks for predictive maintenance. Through comparison, it is observed that quantum machine learning methods, even without extensive optimization, can achieve accuracy levels comparable to those of optimized conventional machine learning approaches. The challenges of applying quantum machine learning are also…
How strong is the evidence?
Evidence Hub reads this as a review, done in computer models (in silico), not in people. Its evidence level is 5 of 5 (Very low · case / narrative / animal / in vitro / in silico). Case reports, narrative reviews, and animal, cell or computer-model studies give the weakest evidence for human health.
