METHODS AND SYSTEMS FOR PERFORMING PREDICTIVE MAINTENANCE ON VEHICLE COMPONENTS TO PREVENT CASCADING FAILURE IN A TRANSPORTATION SYSTEM

Systems, methods, and processing nodes predicting and perform preventive maintenance in a transportation system. Predicting and performing preventive maintenance in a transportation system includes determining historical data for electronic devices in the transportation system. Predicting and performing preventive maintenance also includes determining dependencies of the electronic devices based on the historical data. Predicting and performing preventive maintenance includes determining a likelihood of a fault in the target electronic device during a time period based on the dependencies of the electronic devices and a mutual probability of failure of the target electronic device and parent electronic devices associated with the target electronic device. Predicting and performing preventive maintenance also includes initiating preemptive maintenance on the target electronic device based on the likelihood of the fault.
