description Predicting the remaining useful life (RUL) of batteries can help users optimize battery management strategies for better usage planning. However, the RUL prediction accuracy of lithium-ion batteries will face challenges due to fewer data samples available for the new type of battery. This paper proposed a transferable prediction approach for the RUL of lithium-ion batteries based on small samples to reduce time in preparing battery aging data and improve prediction accuracy. This approach, based on improvements from the adaptive boosting algorithm, is called regression tree transfer adaptive boosting (RT-TrAdaBoost). It combines the advantages of ensemble learning and transfer learning and achieves high computational efficiency. The RT-TrAdaBoost approach takes the charging voltage and temperature curve as input and utilizes the classification and regression tree (CART) as the base learner, which has better feature capture ability. In the experiment, the working condition migration experiment and battery type migration experiment are conducted on non-overlapping datasets. The verified results revealed that the RT-TrAdaBoost approach could transfer not only the battery aging knowledge between various working conditions but also realize the RUL migration prediction from lithium iron phosphate battery to lithium cobalt oxide battery. The analysis of error and computation time demonstrates the proposed method’s high efficiency and speed.
