arXiv:2605.30585v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Effective prognostics and health management of modern engines relies on accurate turbine gas temperature predictions and robust uncertainty quantification to ensure reliability and safety. This paper investigates five major approaches for constructing prediction intervals -- namely the Delta method, Bayesian Monte Carlo Dropout, Bootstrap method, Lower-Upper Bound Estimation, and Mean-Variance Estimation -- as a means of capturing the uncertainty in neural network predictions of turbine gas temperature. Each approach is implemented within a unified experimental framework that employs cross-validation for hyperparameter selection, repeated train-test splits for performance robustness, and multiple metrics to evaluate both the accuracy and tightness of the intervals.
