This paper investigates the application of a data mining technique called Logical Analysis of Data (LAD) to condition-based maintenance. The existing classification techniques are mainly based on statistical analysis and modeling approaches. This paper presents a classification technique based on combinatory and Boolean theory. It is shown that LAD is particularly suitable for detecting the state of equipment because of its new way of pre-processing noisy and missing data. A numerical example and an application are presented.
