Abstract
A method for monitoring a bleed valve of an aircraft engine includes obtaining operational data of the aircraft engine, the operational data indicative of operational performance of the aircraft engine. The method further includes utilizing one or more neural networks to determine a health status of a bleed valve of the aircraft engine based on the operational data, the bleed valve configured to bleed air from a compressor section of the aircraft engine, wherein the one or more neural networks have been trained with root cause data relating to a plurality of potential failure modes of the bleed valve.
