[0015] The technical solutions of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present invention, rather than all of the embodiments. All other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art based on the embodiments of the present invention without creative efforts shall fall within the protection scope of the present invention.

[0016] To facilitate the understanding of the technical solutions of the present invention, the technical terms involved in the present invention will be described first as follows:

[0017] Multivariate variable mode decomposition MVMD model: In the tin smelting process, accurately monitoring and controlling key parameters is crucial for improving product quality and production efficiency. The MVMD model can be used to process multi-channel sensor data and separate different frequency components, which helps to monitor and control the smelting process. However, modal aliasing may occur in MVMD, that is, there is frequency overlap between different modes, resulting in inaccurate decomposition results.

[0018] Improved Generalized Regression Neural Network BLS Model: The improved GRNN-BLS model can be used to establish a non-linear mapping between input variables and output performance indicators to achieve soft sensing. However, its performance depends on the quality and quantity of training data. When the data is insufficient or noisy, the model effect may decline.

[0019] Such as Figure 1 , in this embodiment, a soft sensing method for the tin smelting process based on MVMD and improved BLS specifically may include:

[0028] 2) Construct the augmented Lagrangian function to remove the constraints of the multivariate variational optimization problem. The augmented Lagrangian function contains two penalty terms, where the quadratic term is used to ensure the reconstruction accuracy, and the Lagrange multiplier term is used to ensure strict satisfaction of the constraint conditions:

[0029]

[0030] 3) Solve the variational optimization problem in the constrained \(L(\{\mathbf{u} k,c ,\{\omega k \},\lambda c \})\) by the alternating direction method of multipliers. \(\{\mathbf{u} k,c \}\) is the set of IMFs; { \omega k} is the set of central frequencies of \(\{\mathbf{u} k,c \}\); \(\mathbf{u} k,c \) is the \(k\)th IMF of the \(c\)th channel; \(\omega k is 's central frequency, and \(\lambda c is the representative Lagrange multiplier of the \(c\)th channel.. Among them, the mode update formula The update equation of the central frequency is: and are the Fourier transforms of \(x(t)\), \(\lambda(t)\) and \(u(t)\) respectively.

[0032] S103. Input the set of \(K\) multivariate intrinsic mode function sets into the improved generalized regression neural network BLS model for training to obtain a trained soft sensor prediction model.

[0033] The specific steps are as follows:

[0034] 1) Model training: Combine the set of \(K\) multivariate intrinsic mode function sets with the observable data to form a data sample \(Y\), and use it as the input of the improved BLS model for training.

[0035] 2) Feature node construction: Map the data sample into \(h\) groups of feature nodes through the BLS model, and integrate the \(h\) groups of feature nodes to obtain \(h\) groups of feature parts \(F h , that is where \(F i is the \(i\)th group of feature nodes.

[0036] 3) Enhanced node construction: Substitute \(F n into the formula Among them, E d is the d - group enhanced nodes; Ej is the j - th group of enhanced nodes. Among them, W fi , β fi , W ej , β ej are random parameter matrices; φ i is a linear function, and ξ i is a non - linear function.

[0037] 4) Construct the feature interaction layer H c : H c =σ(W·[F n , E d +b), where σ is a non - linear activation function, W is the weight matrix, and b is the bias term.

[0038] 5) The feature matrix A composed of all nodes of BLS is: A = [F n E d H c ; Combining with the BLS network model Y = AW, the output result is obtained, where the link weight W=(A T A + λI) -1 A T Y, where λ is the regularization coefficient, I is the identity matrix, and Y is the sample label.

[0042] If the model performs well in multiple indexes, it is considered that the model has high prediction accuracy and stability. R2 is used to measure the fitting degree of the model to the data. The closer R2 is to 1, the stronger the explanatory ability of the model; RMSE is used to measure the difference between the predicted value and the true value. The smaller RMSE is, the higher the prediction accuracy; MAE is used to measure the average absolute difference between the predicted value and the true value. The smaller MAE is, the smaller the prediction error. is the predicted value, y i is the true value; n is the number of samples.

[0044] Perform inverse normalization processing on the output of the model: assign the predicted value to the model output represents the output of the model; represents the result of inverse normalization, that is, the final predicted value.

[0045] In summary, the traditional VMD method is only used to decompose univariate time series and cannot handle multivariate data. Introducing MVMD can handle multivariate time series, realize the time-frequency synchronous analysis of multi-dimensional data, and improve the processing ability of complex data. The technical solution of the present invention combines MVMD with the improved BLS for the first time and applies it to the tin smelting process. Combining the feature interaction mechanism enhances the feature extraction ability of BLS. It has both the feature extraction ability of BLS and the training speed of BLS, improves the prediction accuracy of BLS, and thus can more accurately predict the key parameters in the tin smelting process, improving production efficiency and product quality.
