The Internet of things (IoT) enabled systems have become increasingly available in practice. In such a system, condition monitoring signals are often available from a large number of similar devices. The unprecedented data availability in such systems provides significant opportunities for smart data analytics. In this talk, we establish a non-parametric modeling framework based on transfer/multitask learning that can predict the evolution of condition/system monitoring signals through borrowing strength from historical and in-service data. This framework leverages on multivariate gaussian processes and functional graphical models to establish a unified data analytics framework. Further, a generic distributed estimation scheme for functional data that scales efficiently to high dimensions and minimizes the negative transfer of knowledge between uncorrelated functional outputs is proposed. Consistency in estimation and variable selection (oracle property) are then established. The methodologies are validated using numerical studies and a case study with real world data in the application to cloud-based vehicle health monitoring service systems.
