Probabilistic Hysteresis Factor Prediction for Electric Vehicle Batteries with Graphite Anodes Containing Silicon

Accurate state of charge estimation is critical for the success of electric vehicle battery management strategies, but it is well known that conventional estimators suffer from two fundamental shortcomings: cumulative errors that grow over time and reliance on simplified battery models that do not reflect real world dynamics. Therefore, this paper presents a novel hybrid approach combining Tucker tensor decomposition with LSTM networks, using full - lifecycle EV field data for SOC prediction. The inputs are charge status, mileage, voltage, current, cell differentials, and temporal features. Tucker decomposition is skillfully used to reduce dimensionality while maintaining the temporal structure, hence allowing a direct, fair comparison with standard LSTM. The result is unequivocal: Tucker - LSTM outperforms the baseline on all metrics, with MSE dropping 70.5% (from 21.07 to 6.22 ), MAE improving 48.7% (from 3.37% to 1.73%), RMSE falling from 4.59% to 2.49%, and $R^2$ rising from 0.918 to 0.976. Since the experimental results demonstrably demonstrate that tensor decomposition compresses high-dimensional battery data very well without loss of predictive fidelity, this paper naturally opens up a new direction for tensor-based analytics in electric vehicle battery management.

Accurate state-of-charge (SOC) estimation is critical for the safe and efficient operation of lithium-ion batteries in battery management systems (BMS). Although data-driven approaches can effectively capture nonlinear battery dynamics, many existing methods rely on long historical input sequences, resulting in high computational cost and introducing padding-induced positional bias at the beginning of drive cycles. To address these limitations, we propose C2L-Net, a novel context-to-latest data-driven framework for realistic online SOC estimation using only a short historical window (20 s). Unlike existing short-receptive-field or long-history models, the proposed framework explicitly separates contextual encoding from latest-measurement updating, enabling both efficient temporal modeling and rapid adaptation to dynamic battery states. The proposed model incorporates a chunk-based feature extraction mechanism that combines Theta Attention Pooling with a Fourier-based Seasonality Basis to capture local temporal patterns while reducing sequence length. A causal context encoder, integrating a gated recurrent unit (GRU) with Causal Cosine Attention, models temporal dependencies without information leakage. Furthermore, a latest-measurement decoder, inspired by recursive filtering, updates the contextual state using the most recent measurement, enhancing responsiveness to dynamic operating conditions. Extensive experiments on a public lithium-ion battery drive-cycle dataset under multiple fixed-temperature conditions demonstrate that the proposed method achieves state-of-the-art or competitive accuracy while significantly improving computational efficiency. In particular, C2L-Net achieves up to 60 times faster inference and requires fewer parameters than recent data-driven baselines, while maintaining robust performance across unseen driving profiles.

Physics-based simulations are essential for understanding the electrode-scale discharge behavior of lithium-ion batteries (LIBs) but suffer from prohibitive computational costs. To address this, we introduce a novel deep learning surrogate pipeline based on the Swin3D Transformer to predict spatiotemporal discharge dynamics directly from volumetric data. Our approach integrates two key innovations: Gaussian Positional Encoding (GPE), which enhances spatial feature representation by adapting to the complex geometry of electrode microstructures, and a specialized Temporal Encoding module to capture non-linear timeseries evolution. Experimental validation on an Electrochemical Simulation (ES) dataset demonstrates that our pipeline significantly outperforms state-of-the-art point cloud baselines in prediction accuracy. Furthermore, the proposed method reduces the computational overhead by orders of magnitude, providing a scalable and efficient framework for high-throughput battery design and optimization.
