[0002] The dry slagging machine is the core equipment of the power plant boiler slagging system, and the cooling air volume is controlled to realize the cooling, conveying and heat recovery of high-temperature slag. The air control technology directly determines the cooling efficiency, heat recovery, environmental protection performance, equipment life and other indicators of the system.

[0045] It should be noted that the embodiments and features in the embodiments of the present application can be combined with each other without conflict. The present application will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and in combination with the embodiments.

[0046] It should be noted that the steps shown in the flow chart of the accompanying drawings can be executed in a computer system such as a set of computer executable instructions, and although the logical order is shown in the flow chart, in some cases, the steps shown or described herein can be executed in an order different from that shown herein.

[0047] The embodiment provides an intelligent air control method for a power plant dry slag discharger based on incremental collaborative integrated learning, as shown in the figure, and specifically comprises the following steps: Figure 1

[0048] Collecting multi-time sequence real-time features of different nodes of the slag discharger by using sensors;

[0049] Inputting the multi-time sequence real-time features into a basic learning model to obtain predicted feature values, wherein the basic learning model comprises a collaborative graph neural network, a space-time long short-term memory neural network and an incremental learning network;

[0050] The collaborative graph neural network is used for performing an aggregation operation on the multi-time sequence real-time features to obtain first predicted feature values;

[0051] The space-time long short-term memory neural network is used for forward propagation learning of space-time sequence information of the first predicted feature values to obtain second predicted feature values;

[0052] The incremental learning network is used for dynamically obtaining third predicted feature values from the multi-time sequence real-time features;

[0053] Inputting the predicted feature values into a meta-learning model to obtain air volume of the slag discharger at a next time.

[0054] Specifically, first, the spatial correlation of different sensor nodes (such as a slag bin, a slag crusher, an air duct, a slag well entrance, a middle part of a conveying belt, a slag crusher exit and the like) is collected, and weights are dynamically allocated. The time attention module captures feature data of key events (such as slag amount peak values and temperature abnormities) in historical time sequences and performs feature aggregation; then, the aggregated feature data is input into different basic learning devices for training and prediction; finally, the prediction results of the different basic learning devices are input into a meta-learning device based on meta-learning for training and prediction, so that the air volume of the slag discharger at a next time is obtained.

[0055] Further, the multi-time sequence real-time features comprise wind speed, wind direction, environmental temperature, air density and air pressure.

[0056] Specifically, the geometric structure of the slag discharger can be recorded as G= (V, A), wherein V represents a sensor node set, |V|=N, A={A k |k=1,2,..., N} represents an adjacency matrix between different nodes, and k is the number of sensors. The multi-element data at a certain time step can be represented as represents information collected by the i node at the time step t, such as wind speed, wind direction, environmental temperature, air density, air pressure, air pollution data and the like.

[0057] Further, before training the basic learning device by using the multi-time sequence real-time features, the multi-time sequence real-time features are subjected to normalization processing: ​

[0058] ,

[0059] wherein x r represents the historical data of the multi-time sequence real-time feature, x min represents the minimum value in the sensor node data, x max represents the maximum value of the sensor node data, and x represents the multi-time sequence real-time feature.

[0060] Further, the basic learning model is used to output the predicted feature value, which includes:

[0061] Based on the first predicted feature value, the second predicted feature value and the third predicted feature value, the predicted feature value is obtained.

[0062] Further, the collaborative graph neural network includes a mapping module, a time attention module, a spatial attention module, a space-time feature aggregation module and an output module.

[0063] The mapping module is used to map the multi-time sequence real-time feature to a high-dimensional hidden space and extract the mapped space-time feature.

[0064] The time attention module captures key events in the historical time sequence feature and obtains a time weight.

[0065] The spatial attention module is used to extract the spatial correlation of different sensor nodes and obtain a spatial weight.

[0066] The space-time feature aggregation module is used to aggregate the mapped space-time feature using the time weight and the spatial weight.

[0067] The output module is used to output the aggregated first predicted feature value.

[0068] Specifically, as shown in Figure 2 , the collaborative graph neural network maps the space-time sequence data collected by the sensor to a high-dimensional hidden space and extracts its space-time feature; the time attention module captures key events (such as slag amount peak value, temperature anomaly) in the historical time sequence, and enhances the modeling of long-term dependence; the spatial attention module mainly extracts the spatial correlation of different sensor nodes (such as slag bin, slag crusher, air duct, slag well entrance, middle part of conveying belt, slag crusher outlet, etc.), and dynamically allocates weights. The time and space attention weights are respectively applied to the input features, and the weighted sum is obtained, the aggregated adjacent node information and the previous layer information are spliced, and the weights are adaptively allocated through the activation function; finally, the feature information after the aggregation operation is output.

[0069] More specifically, the spatial attention module activation function adopts Leaky ReLu, thereby dynamically and adaptively allocating the weights of each feature information. The specific representation is as follows:

[0070]

[0071] ,

[0072] in, This represents the feature information after feature aggregation in a collaborative graph neural network. Indicates activator. V represents the attention coefficients of the collaborative graph neural network, W represents the weight parameter matrix, and v i Indicates intermediate features, v j v i Let N represent the number of features in the slag discharger system, and X represent adjacent features. j X represents the real-time features of node j. i Let i be the real-time feature of node i.

[0073] Furthermore, the spatiotemporal long short-term memory neural network includes: a spatiotemporal feature extraction module, a spatiotemporal memory gate module, a spatiotemporal fusion module, a feature update module, and a feature output module;

[0074] The spatiotemporal feature extraction module is used to extract the spatial and temporal features of the first predicted feature value, respectively.

[0075] The spatiotemporal memory gate module is used to input spatial features and temporal features into the spatial memory gate and the temporal memory gate respectively, and to train them using a forward propagation method.

[0076] The spatiotemporal fusion module is used to fuse the spatial and temporal features after training to obtain a fused spatiotemporal sequence data set.

[0077] The feature update module is used to filter the fused spatiotemporal sequence data group using an update gate;

[0078] The feature output module is used to output the filtered spatiotemporal sequence data set and obtain the second predicted feature value.

[0079] Specifically, such as Figure 3 As shown, the input to the spatiotemporal long short-term memory neural network is the spatiotemporal sequence data group after the spatiotemporal attention network aggregation operation. Spatial features and temporal features are placed into spatial memory gates and temporal memory gates respectively, and training is performed using a forward propagation method. The spatiotemporal long short-term memory neural network filters the input temporal data through update gates, i.e., memory and forgetting. The update gate is essentially an activation function. When the input feature is a vector, the output is a real number vector between [0,1]. When the update gate is 0, the update gate is closed, and no vector can pass through; when the update gate is 1, any vector can pass through. Therefore, the feature information is filtered by controlling the update gate:

[0080] ,

[0081] Update stage update gate z t forgetting and memory principle;

[0082] ,

[0083] The output of the spatiotemporal long short-term memory neural network at time t;

[0084] ,

[0085] In the formula, , g t , respectively represent the feature information after the feature aggregation of the collaborative graph neural network, the updated feature information, and the output feature information; W i , W f , W g , W o are weights; b i , b f , b g , b o are bias vectors; is a sigmoid activation function, x t is the node feature at time t, h t-1 is the hidden state at the previous time, z t is the intermediate calculation result of the gate unit at time t.

[0086] Further, incremental learning can solve the problem of low prediction accuracy on old samples during training, and the process of updating and improving the model itself using old samples is a gradual learning process that dynamically obtains information from new data and gradually adjusts the model, which can adapt to changing environments and data. In the test set D test , two different class samples (x i , y i ), (x j , y j ) are randomly selected, y i ≠ y j , to increase the sample type:

[0087] ,

[0088] where λ is a sampling coefficient from a random distribution, x i is the real-time feature of node i, x j is the real-time feature of node j, y i is the increased real-time feature of node i, y j is the real-time feature of node j, is the differential of the original real-time feature, To increase the differential of real-time features.

[0089] Further, the meta-learner fuses the outputs of the base learners based on the algorithms of the base learners to generate a final decision result. The application adopts a meta-learning algorithm as the meta-learner, and the meta-learning can automatically learn the feature representation in the base learners, thereby generalizing on the meta-learner. The purpose of the meta-learning is to train the test set D test Get the model parameters φ, so that the loss function L loss is minimum, and the optimal model parameters can be expressed as follows:

[0090] ,

[0091] Where φ is the model parameter, L loss is the loss function of the model, D test is the test set, is the optimal model parameter of the training set, is the training set.

[0092] As Figure 4 shown, the ensemble learning fuses the advantages of multiple algorithms to adapt to various working condition scenes. The ensemble learning mainly consists of base learners and meta-learners. First, train the learners with all the data, each base learner predicts the training data set, and the prediction result is taken as the feature value of the test set. Then, the new training sample data trains the meta-learner to obtain the air volume of the slag extractor at the next moment.

[0093] The above is only the preferred specific embodiment of the present application, but the protection scope of the present application is not limited to this. Any changes or replacements that can be easily thought of by those skilled in the art within the technical range disclosed in the present application should be covered in the protection scope of the present application. Therefore, the protection scope of the present application should be subject to the protection scope of the claims.
