Method and apparatus for providing vehicle component fault scoring
First Claim
Patent Images
1. A method for providing a vehicle component fault score, the method comprising the steps of:
- tracking, by a transceiver of an apparatus, faults that occur on vehicle components in a plurality of vehicles;
compiling, by a processor of the apparatus, one or more sets of attribute values for the tracked faults, wherein a set of attribute values within a respective preset boundary condition is collected for each item within one or more preset vehicle type categories;
calculating, by the processor, a fault score for each set of the compiled attribute values; and
displaying, by a display of the apparatus, a set of one or more items with respective fault scores based on a preset vehicle type category selected by a user,wherein compiling the one or more sets of attribute values comprises;
comparing an attribute value to a respective preset boundary condition;
determining whether the attribute value is within the respective preset boundary condition; and
removing the attribute value, when the attribute value is not within the respective preset boundary condition, andwherein the fault scores are calculated without the removed attribute value.

Abstract
A method and an apparatus are provided for providing a vehicle component fault score. Faults that occur on vehicle components in a plurality of vehicles are tracked. One or more sets of attribute values are compiled for the tracked faults. A set of attribute values is collected for each item within one or more preset vehicle categories. A fault score is calculated for each set of the compiled attribute values. A set of one or more items with respective fault scores is displayed based on a preset vehicle category selected by a user.

10. An apparatus for providing a vehicle component fault score, comprising:
-
a transceiver tracking faults that occur on vehicle components in a plurality of vehicles; a memory storing the tracked faults; at least one processor coupled to the memory, the transceiver, and a display, and operative to;
(i) compile one or more sets of attribute values for the tracked faults, and (ii) calculate a fault score for each set of the compiled attribute values, wherein the a set of attribute values within a respective preset boundary condition is collected for each item within one or more preset vehicle type categories; andthe display displaying a set of one or more items with respective fault scores based on a preset vehicle type category selected by user, wherein compiling the one or more sets of attribute values comprises; comparing an attribute value to a respective preset boundary condition; determining whether the attribute value is within the respective preset boundary condition; and removing the attribute value, when the attribute value is not within the respective preset boundary condition, and wherein the fault scores are calculated without the removed attribute value. - View Dependent Claims (11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17)

18. An article of manufacture for providing a vehicle component fault score, comprising a non-transitory machine readable medium containing one or more programs which when executed implement the steps of:
-
tracking faults that occur on vehicle components in a plurality of vehicles; compiling one or more sets of attribute values for the tracked faults, wherein a set of attribute values within a respective preset boundary condition is collected for each item within one or more preset vehicle type categories; calculating a fault score for each set of the compiled attribute values; and displaying a set of one or more items with respective fault scores based on a preset vehicle type category selected by a user, wherein compiling the one or more sets of attribute values comprises; comparing an attribute value to a respective preset boundary condition; determining whether the attribute value is within the respective preset boundary condition; and removing the attribute value, when the attribute value is not within the respective preset boundary condition, and wherein the fault scores are calculated without the removed attribute value.
