Industrial production often involves complex time-varying operating conditions that result in continuous time-series production data. The traditional soft sensor approach has difficulty adjusting to such dynamic changes, which makes model performance less optimal. Furthermore, online analytical systems have significant operational and maintenance costs and entail a substantial delay in measurement output, limiting their ability to provide real-time control. In order to deal with these challenges, this paper introduces a multivariate multi-step predictive multilayer perceptron regression soft-sensing model, referred to as incremental MVMS-MLP. This model incorporates incremental learning strategies to enhance its adaptability and accuracy in multivariate predictions. As part of the method, a pre-trained MVMS-MLP model is developed, which integrates multivariate multi-step prediction with MLP regression to handle temporal data. Through the use of incremental learning, an incremental MVMS-MLP model is constructed from this pre-trained model. The effectiveness of the proposed method is demonstrated by benchmark problems and real-world industrial case studies.
工业生产通常涉及复杂的时变运行条件,从而产生连续的时间序列生产数据。传统的软测量方法难以适应这种动态变化,这使得模型性能不太理想。此外,在线分析系统具有高昂的运行和维护成本,并且测量输出存在显著延迟,限制了它们提供实时控制的能力。为了应对这些挑战,本文介绍了一种多变量多步预测多层感知器回归软测量模型,称为增量MVMS-MLP。该模型采用增量学习策略来提高其在多变量预测中的适应性和准确性。作为该方法的一部分,开发了一个预训练的MVMS-MLP模型,该模型将多变量多步预测与MLP回归相结合以处理时间数据。通过使用增量学习,从这个预训练模型构建了一个增量MVMS-MLP模型。基准问题和实际工业案例研究证明了所提方法的有效性。
