1. Method for predicting a malfunction of a mechanical or electrical component of a unit comprising the steps of:

  • measuring a current value of a parameter of the component;

    in an apparatus, determining a conditional probability distribution of the parameter for a future point in time given the current value of the parameter based on the current value of the parameter;

    in the apparatus, determining a conditional probability for a malfunction at the future point in time given the current value of the parameter based on the conditional probability distribution of the parameter for the future point in time given the current value of the parameter and on a conditional probability distribution for the malfunction given the parameter, andpredicting the malfunction of the component on the basis of the conditional probability for a malfunction at the future point in time given the current value of the parameter.
