Abstract
Parallel process neural network (PPNN) is a novel spatio-temporal artificial neural network. The approximation capability analysis is very important for the PPNN to enhance its adaptability to time series prediction. The approximation capability of the PPNN is analyzed in this paper, and it can be proved that the PPNN can approximate any continuous functional to any degree of accuracy. Finally, the PPNN is utilized to predict the iron concentration of the lubricating oil in the aircraft engine health condition monitoring to highlight the approximation capability of the PPNN, and the application test results also indicate that the PPNN can be used as a well predictive maintenance tool in the aircraft engine condition monitoring.
