Identifying degradation patterns of lithium ion batteries from impedance spectroscopy using machine learning

Forecasting the state of health and remaining useful life of Li-ion batteries is an unsolved challenge that limits technologies such as consumer electronics and electric vehicles. Here, we build an accurate battery forecasting system by combining electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS)-a real-time, non-invasive and information-rich measurement that is hitherto underused in battery diagnosis-with Gaussian process machine learning. Over 20,000 EIS spectra of commercial Li-ion batteries are collected at different states of health, states of charge and temperatures-the largest dataset to our knowledge of its kind. Our Gaussian process model takes the entire spectrum as input, without further feature…
