Description

Technical Field

[0001] This disclosure relates to the field of industrial intelligent technology, and in particular to a method, apparatus, equipment, storage medium and program product for assessing and predicting the deterioration trend of lightweight hydropower units. Background Technology

[0002] Hydropower, as a clean, sustainable, and flexible high-quality energy source, plays an increasingly important role in the transformation of the power system. Currently, the focus of my country's hydropower industry is gradually shifting from construction to operation and maintenance. As the operating time of hydropower units increases, their operational condition gradually deteriorates, with most defects developing from latent hidden dangers. Therefore, various types of sensors are deployed at key functional links of hydropower units to monitor data reflecting their operational status, providing data support for ensuring the safe operation of hydropower units.

[0003] Existing methods often reflect the deterioration status of hydropower units based on the deterioration trend of a single monitoring point, resulting in an incomplete deterioration trend. Assessing the deterioration trends of each main functional chain component and then constructing the overall deterioration trend of the hydropower unit based on this assessment is a more feasible solution. However, hydropower units have numerous key monitoring points and sensor channels, requiring massive computational resources to construct health models. Furthermore, in the deterioration trend prediction stage, deep prediction models have too many parameters, leading to excessive time and space complexity. More importantly, in practical engineering applications, the vibration and sway monitoring data of hydropower units are affected by seasonal factors, necessitating regular updates to health and prediction models to ensure the accuracy of deterioration trend assessment and prediction. The high computational resource consumption of existing methods becomes even more pronounced in these cases.

[0004] Therefore, the existing degradation trend assessment and prediction methods have not been effective when applied in practice. Problems such as excessive system resource consumption and excessive disk usage often occur. The health model and prediction model consume too many system resources when updating, causing related functions to crash and even causing serious chain reactions. Summary of the Invention

[0031] Figure 1 This is a flowchart illustrating a method for assessing and predicting the deterioration trend of a lightweight hydropower unit according to an embodiment of this disclosure. The method can be executed by a device for assessing and predicting the deterioration trend of a lightweight hydropower unit, wherein the device can be implemented using software and / or hardware, and is generally integrated into an electronic device.

[0032] Example 1: This embodiment of the present disclosure provides a method for assessing and predicting the deterioration trend of lightweight hydropower units, the method comprising: S101: Collect the operating parameters of the hydropower unit and the status monitoring data of each main functional chain component of the hydropower unit. Input the operating parameters of the hydropower unit into a pre-trained operating parameter extraction network. Reduce the dimensionality of the operating parameters of the hydropower unit to obtain operating feature information. Input the operating feature information into the preset lightweight hydropower unit health model of each main functional chain component of the hydropower unit to obtain the theoretical state prediction of each main functional chain component of the hydropower unit during the evaluation period. The lightweight hydropower unit health model is based on a lightweight gradient boosting mechanism. S102: Based on the mapping relationship, compare the difference between the state monitoring quantity and the theoretical state prediction quantity, generate the deterioration degree of each main functional chain part of the hydropower unit during the period to be evaluated, analyze the deterioration degree of each main functional chain part of the hydropower unit, and generate the deterioration trend sequence of the hydropower unit during the period to be evaluated based on the analysis results. S103: Input the hydropower unit deterioration trend sequence into a preset deterioration trend prediction model, reconstruct the hydropower unit deterioration trend sequence, and predict the future deterioration trend of the hydropower unit based on the real-time reconstruction results.

[0033] In this embodiment, the hydropower unit operating parameters refer to the external and internal condition parameters that describe the overall operating environment and state of the hydropower unit. Examples include active power, head, guide vane opening, excitation current, excitation voltage, and stator coil temperature.

[0034] In this embodiment, the main functional chain components refer to the key physical components that constitute the core conversion chain of hydropower unit from water energy to mechanical energy to electrical energy. Based on equipment ledgers, inspection locations, and condition monitoring technical guidelines, several main functional chain components that affect the safe and stable operation of the unit are identified.

[0035] In this embodiment, the state monitoring quantity refers to the physical quantity collected by sensors directly installed on the main functional chain parts, which reflects the physical state of those parts. For example, vibration, sway, etc., at each main functional chain part.

[0036] In this embodiment, data cleaning is performed by removing abnormal monitoring values ​​and interpolating missing values. This step completes the data collection and cleaning for the healthy operation phase of each main functional chain component of the unit.

[0037] In this embodiment, the operating condition feature information refers to the output of the operating condition parameter extraction network, which is a low-dimensional core feature vector obtained after dimensionality reduction, noise reduction, and feature extraction of the original hydropower unit operating condition parameters.

[0038] In this embodiment, the input of the lightweight hydropower unit health model is the operating condition feature information (i.e., the hydropower unit operating condition parameters after dimensionality reduction), and the output is the theoretical state prediction.

[0039] In this embodiment, the theoretical state prediction is a predicted value calculated by the lightweight hydropower unit health model based on the input operating condition characteristics and the learned mapping relationship. It represents the theoretically expected value of the state monitoring quantity of the corresponding main functional chain component under the current operating conditions, in a healthy and intact state.

[0040] In this embodiment, the degree of deterioration refers to a quantitative index calculated by comparing the difference between the actual value of the condition monitoring quantity and the theoretical condition prediction quantity output by the health model of the lightweight hydropower unit.

[0041] In this embodiment, the hydropower unit deterioration trend sequence refers to the final generated time series representing the comprehensive changes in the health status of the entire hydropower unit during the assessment period. It is obtained by weighting and fusing the deterioration degree sequences of each main functional chain component within this period according to the comprehensive weights determined by the CRITIC method. This sequence serves as the direct input data for subsequent deterioration trend prediction.

[0042] In this embodiment, the input to the degradation trend prediction model is the degradation trend sequence of the hydropower unit, and the output is the future degradation trend. It consists of multiple sequence feature learning sub-models, which are weighted combinations of GRU sub-models, and the degradation trend prediction model is a Bagging-GRU model.

[0043] In this embodiment, the real-time reconstruction result refers to a set of continuous samples obtained by dividing the sequence of hydropower unit deterioration trends to be predicted into a sliding window according to the number of prediction steps. Each sample is a short sequence with a length equal to the number of prediction steps. For example, if the original sequence is [1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6] and the number of steps is 3, then the reconstructed sample is [[1, 2, 3], [2, 3, 4], [3, 4, 5], [4, 5, 6]].

[0044] In this embodiment, such as Figure 2 As shown, the operating condition parameter extraction network refers to a complete deep autoencoder composed of the aforementioned initial encoder and initial decoder. The operating condition parameter extraction network removes interference and redundancy components from numerous operating condition parameters, reduces key information, reduces the input data scale of subsequent models, and improves the overall lightweight level.

[0045] In this embodiment, the future deterioration trend refers to the final output of the deterioration trend prediction model, that is, the sequence of predicted values ​​at multiple consecutive time points in the future, which represents the expected change trajectory of the overall health status of the hydropower unit in the future period.

[0046] In this embodiment, a degradation trend sequence is input, and a preset function is used to calculate the number of prediction steps and reconstruct the sequence to obtain real-time samples. The first sample is weighted and averaged by multiple sequence feature learning sub-models to output the first step prediction value. Based on this prediction value, subsequent input samples are reconstructed, and the weighted prediction process is repeated to obtain the future degradation trend.

[0047] In this embodiment, based on the equipment register, the unit was in its initial commissioning phase and operating well for a certain period. The operating parameters of the hydropower unit during this phase, along with the status monitoring quantities of various main functional chain components, were selected to represent its health status. Six channels of hydropower unit operating parameters were collected during this phase, including active power, head, guide vane opening, excitation current, excitation voltage, and stator coil temperature. Based on the equipment register, inspection locations, and status monitoring technical guidelines, this embodiment selected four main functional chain components affecting the safe and stable operation of the unit: the X-axis runout of the upper guide bearing, the Y-axis runout of the upper guide bearing, the X-axis runout of the lower guide bearing, and the Y-axis runout of the lower guide bearing. The runout status monitoring quantities of each component were collected. Data cleaning was completed through abnormal monitoring value removal and missing value interpolation, and a deep autoencoder was constructed, with the structure as shown below. Figure 2 As shown in the diagram. Based on the trained deep autoencoder, the reconstruction error of the deep autoencoder is minimized using MSE as the loss function. After the model converges, the result is extracted. Figure 2 The encoder part, as a pre-processing step for degradation trend assessment, is used to reduce the operating parameters of the hydropower unit. The operating parameters of the hydropower unit are input into the encoder part of the operating parameter extraction network to obtain 3D key information of the operating parameters. Based on a lightweight gradient booster, a lightweight hydropower unit health model with four main functional chain components is constructed. 90% of the data is randomly selected for training the lightweight hydropower unit health model, and subsequent data is used to verify the effectiveness of the lightweight hydropower unit health model, completing the training of four lightweight hydropower unit health models. To illustrate the advantages of the lightweight hydropower unit health model proposed in this embodiment, the proposed lightweight model is compared with health models established by artificial neural networks (ANN), Gaussian process regression (GPR), etc. The differences in various index parameters are shown in Table 1 below.

[0048] In this embodiment, it is evident that the proposed lightweight hydropower unit health model has the shortest training time among all health models. The training time for a single model is improved by an average of 384% compared to GPR and by an average of 1389% compared to ANN, saving a significant amount of training time. Furthermore, the model exhibits the best fitting error across all components. Given the limited on-site computing resources, numerous main functional chain components of the unit, and increasingly stringent monitoring requirements for each component, the selection of the lightweight hydropower unit health model not only enables rapid response, reduces system resource consumption, and lowers the frequency of system anomalies, but also achieves high-precision fitting performance, ensuring the reliability of subsequent degradation trend assessments, as shown in Table 1.

Finally, the degradation trend prediction model is used to reconstruct the degradation trend sequence of the hydropower unit and predict future degradation trends, thereby achieving comprehensive degradation assessment of multiple components. This significantly reduces the computational resource consumption and storage requirements of the model, improves the update efficiency of the health model and prediction model, enhances the stability of system operation, and ensures the long-term accuracy of online monitoring and prediction.

Based on the mapping relationship between the hydropower unit operating condition parameters and corresponding state monitoring quantities of each main functional chain part of the hydropower unit in the lightweight hydropower unit health model, the theoretical state prediction quantities of each main functional chain part of the hydropower unit during the period to be evaluated are output.

[0052] In this embodiment, the mapping relationship refers to the mathematical function relationship between the operating condition feature information and the theoretical state prediction quantity learned by the lightweight hydropower unit health model from historical health data during the training phase.

To balance model lightweighting and accuracy, The maximum depth d of the training tree should not exceed 6, and the maximum number of leaf nodes should not exceed [a certain value]. The model does not perform random feature selection.

The initial decoder and the initial encoder are combined to obtain the operating condition parameter extraction network.

[0057] In this embodiment, the preset number of layers refers to the total number of network layers that are manually set before the neural network is constructed.

[0058] In this embodiment, the initial encoder refers to the part of the neural network first constructed during the construction of the deep autoencoder, which is used for compression and feature extraction of the input data. Its structural characteristic is that the number of neurons in each layer decreases progressively from the shallowest to the deepest.

[0061] In this embodiment, the initial decoder refers to the part of the neural network that is symmetrical to the initial encoder structure, constructed through methods such as parameter transposition. It decodes the low-dimensional feature representation obtained from the encoder back into the original high-dimensional data space.

[0062] The working principle and beneficial effects of this embodiment are as follows: Input data is compressed by an encoder with progressively decreasing neurons, its parameters are transposed to construct a symmetric decoder, and combined to form an autoencoder network that can reconstruct the input, thereby achieving automatic dimensionality reduction and feature extraction of data and generating low-dimensional key information for use by downstream models.

[0063] Example 4: The method provided in this embodiment compares the difference between the monitored state quantity and the theoretical state prediction quantity based on the mapping relationship, generates the degree of deterioration of each main functional chain component of the hydropower unit during the evaluation period, analyzes the degree of deterioration of each main functional chain component of the hydropower unit, and generates a deterioration trend sequence of the hydropower unit during the evaluation period based on the analysis results, including: Based on the mapping relationship, the difference between the state monitoring quantity and the theoretical state prediction quantity of each main functional chain part of the hydropower unit is compared, and the deterioration degree of each main functional chain part of the hydropower unit to be evaluated during the corresponding evaluation period is generated. The standard deviation is used to measure the variability of the deterioration degree of each main functional chain component of the hydropower unit during the evaluation period, and the correlation coefficient is used to measure the conflict of the deterioration degree of each main functional chain component of the hydropower unit during the evaluation period. The comprehensive weights of each main functional chain component of the hydropower unit are calculated based on the variability and conflict, and the deterioration trend sequence of the hydropower unit for the evaluation period is generated by combining the CRITIC method with the comprehensive weights.

[0064] In this embodiment, variability refers to the magnitude or dispersion of the degradation sequence of the main functional chain component being evaluated during the evaluation period. High variability means that the degradation state of that component is unstable and fluctuates drastically, potentially containing more information that requires attention.

[0065] In this embodiment, conflict refers to the degree of opposition or contradiction in the degradation sequence changes between different main functional chain parts, measured by the correlation coefficient. If the degradation trends of two parts are highly negatively correlated, their conflict is high, indicating that there is contradictory or competing information, which requires careful consideration during comprehensive evaluation.

[0066] In this embodiment, the process of generating the day-k degradation degree of each main functional chain component of the unit involves sending the day-k operating condition characteristic information into the health model of each lightweight hydropower unit. The theoretical state monitoring quantities for each main functional chain component are obtained: ,in, This represents the theoretical state monitoring quantity of the i-th main functional chain part on day k. This represents the operating condition characteristics on day k; N represents the total number of main functional chain components; the degradation degree of each main functional chain component on day k is calculated as follows: ,in, This represents the degradation degree of the i-th main function chain part on day k; This represents the status monitoring data of the i-th part on day k; This represents the theoretical state monitoring value of the i-th part on day k; This indicates that the i-th main function chain part is in the first position. Number of samples per day The value is a small positive number close to 0 to prevent the denominator from being zero; K represents the total length of the period to be evaluated; the degradation degree of each main functional chain component of the unit during the period to be evaluated is obtained. By combining the CRITIC evaluation method to assess the weight of the deterioration degree of each main functional chain component, the deterioration trend of the unit can be obtained.

[0067] In this embodiment, the formula for calculating variability is as follows: ,in, This represents the variability of the i-th main functional chain part; This represents the time-interval average of the degradation degree of the i-th main functional chain component.

[0068] In this embodiment, the calculation formula corresponding to the conflict is as follows: ,in, This indicates the degradation degree of the j-th main function chain component; This represents the degree of conflict between the degradation degree of the i-th main function chain component and the degradation degree of the j-th main function chain component. , They represent the first The, the The average degradation degree of each main functional chain component over a given period. The overall weight corresponding to each main functional chain component is calculated based on variability and conflict. , This represents the comprehensive weight corresponding to the i-th main functional chain component. The comprehensive weight obtained using the CRITIC method is then used to generate a hydropower unit deterioration trend sequence. : .

[0069] In this embodiment, the comprehensive weight refers to a combined weight calculated for the degradation degree of each main functional chain component. It considers the variability of the degradation degree of the component itself and its conflict with the degradation degrees of other components. The comprehensive weight is used to determine the proportion of degradation degree of each component when synthesizing the overall trend.

[0070] In this embodiment, the CRITIC method is an objective multi-index weight determination method. It uses the degree of deterioration of each part as an index, its standard deviation to measure variability, and its correlation coefficient to measure conflict, thereby calculating the comprehensive weight of each part.

[0071] The working principle and beneficial effects of this embodiment are as follows: the degree of degradation is obtained by calculating the difference between the condition monitoring quantity and the theoretical condition prediction quantity. The variation and conflict are quantified by standard deviation and correlation coefficient. The comprehensive degradation trend sequence is generated by weighting the CRITIC method, so as to achieve objective integration of the degradation degree of multiple parts and improve the comprehensiveness and accuracy of the overall degradation trend assessment of the unit.

[0072] Example 5: The method provided in this embodiment of the present disclosure inputs the hydropower unit deterioration trend sequence into a preset deterioration trend prediction model, reconstructs the hydropower unit deterioration trend sequence, and predicts the future deterioration trend of the hydropower unit based on the real-time reconstruction results, including: The hydropower unit deterioration trend sequence is input into a preset deterioration trend prediction model. A preset function is used to determine the prediction correlation steps of the hydropower unit deterioration trend sequence. The hydropower unit deterioration trend sequence is then reconstructed based on the prediction correlation steps to obtain real-time reconstruction results. Based on the first sample input in the real-time reconstruction result, several sequence feature learning sub-models in the degradation trend prediction model are used to perform a weighted average of several prediction results according to the sub-model weights corresponding to the several sequence feature learning sub-models, and output the prediction value of the first future time point. The rolling prediction of all samples in the real-time reconstruction results yields the predicted value of the corresponding sample, and the future deterioration trend of the hydropower unit is obtained based on all the predicted values.

[0073] In this embodiment, the prediction correlation step number refers to the optimal historical window length determined by analyzing the historical hydropower unit deterioration trend sequence using a preset function. It indicates how many consecutive time points in the past need to be referenced when predicting a future point; the preset function may be a partial autocorrelation function.

[0074] In this embodiment, the sequence feature learning sub-model refers to the specific base learner in the degradation trend prediction model, namely the gated recurrent unit (GRU) neural network. Each sub-model is trained independently on different subsets of data generated by the Bagging method to learn the nonlinear mapping relationship from historical sequences to future values, that is, to capture the temporal dependency features of the sequence.

[0075] In this embodiment, the predicted value refers to the prediction result of the model at the next time step after the deterioration trend sequence of the hydropower unit is input into the deterioration trend prediction model. For multi-step prediction, the first predicted value is combined with historical data to generate a new sample for predicting time t+1, and so on.

[0076] In this embodiment, as a key technology supporting condition-based maintenance of generating units, the current degradation trend assessment and prediction technology processes relatively limited information sources, requiring significant computational resources and training time for practical application, making it difficult to meet the rapid data mining needs under massive data and multiple monitoring channels. Against this backdrop, this disclosure proposes a lightweight hydropower unit degradation trend assessment and prediction method, balancing accuracy and model lightweighting. It utilizes a deep autoencoder (operating condition parameter extraction network) to remove interference and redundancy components from operating condition parameters, reducing the input data scale of subsequent models and improving lightweighting from a data perspective. Furthermore, it constructs a lightweight LightGBM health model and a low-parameter Bagging-GRU prediction model to improve model response speed under massive measurement points, ensuring rapid and reliable degradation assessment and prediction from the model level. Based on the above aspects, the lightweight hydropower unit degradation trend assessment and prediction method provided by this disclosure is scientific and practical, and has significant value for the rapid deployment and updating of hydropower unit degradation assessment and prediction methods.

[0077] The working principle and beneficial effects of this embodiment are as follows: An input degradation trend sequence is used, and a preset function is employed to calculate the number of prediction steps and reconstruct the sequence to obtain real-time samples. The first sample is weighted and averaged by multiple sequence feature learning sub-models to output the first-step prediction value. Based on this prediction value, subsequent input samples are reconstructed on a rolling basis, and the weighted prediction process is repeated to obtain multi-step future degradation trends, achieving multi-step rolling integrated prediction and improving the stability and accuracy of the prediction results.

[0078] Example 6: The method provided in this embodiment of the present disclosure, such as... Figure 5 As shown, the preset degradation trend prediction model includes: Obtain historical deterioration trend sequences of hydropower units; The relevant number of steps of the historical hydropower unit deterioration trend sequence is determined by a preset function, the historical hydropower unit deterioration trend sequence is reconstructed according to the relevant number of steps, and sample-label pairs are generated according to the reconstruction results. The sample-label pairs are divided into training set and test set based on a preset percentage. The training set is resampled several times with replacement using the Bagging method to obtain several sub-training sample sets with the same number of samples as the training set. Sequence feature learning sub-models are constructed for each sub-training sample set and the models are trained. Calculate the mean squared error of each sequence feature learning sub-model on the corresponding sub-training sample set, and determine the sub-model weight of each sequence feature learning sub-model based on the mean squared error. Then, perform weighted integration of each sequence feature learning sub-model based on the sub-model weight to obtain the degradation trend prediction model. The accuracy of the degradation trend prediction model is verified using the test set. If the preset accuracy requirement is met, the degradation trend prediction model is output.

[0079] In this embodiment, the historical hydropower unit deterioration trend sequence refers to the time series data generated over a period of time during the model training phase, which represents the overall changes in the health status of the hydropower units.

[0080] In this embodiment, the sample-label pair refers to the supervised learning data formed by reconstructing the historical hydropower unit deterioration trend sequence according to the relevant number of steps. A sample is a continuous historical data subsequence of length equal to the number of relevant steps. The label is the actual observation value at the next time point immediately following this subsequence.

[0081] In this embodiment, the preset percentage refers to a pre-set ratio when dividing the training set and the test set. This ratio is used to divide all sample-label pairs, with one portion used for training the model and the other for testing model performance.

[0082] In this embodiment, resampling with replacement refers to randomly selecting a sample from the training set and then putting that sample back into the original training set, so that it may still be selected in the next sampling. By repeating this process, multiple new datasets can be generated.

[0083] In this embodiment, a sub-training sample set refers to multiple datasets generated through resampling with replacement, which have the same number of samples as the original training set but different sample compositions. Each sub-training sample set is used to independently train a sequence feature learning sub-model.

[0084] In this embodiment, the input to the sequence feature learning sub-model is samples from the sub-training sample set, and the output is the predicted value of the label. The sequence feature learning sub-model is... Figure 5 The GRU sub-model in the model.

[0085] In this embodiment, weighted ensemble refers to a method of combining multiple trained sequence feature learning sub-models into a stronger model. The prediction results of each GRU sub-model (sequence feature learning sub-model) are weighted and averaged according to their respective sub-model weights to obtain the final ensemble prediction result.

[0086] In this embodiment, the performance of each GRU sub-model on the corresponding sub-training set is calculated. : ,in, 'a' represents the number of samples in the sub-training set; 'a' represents the sub-model index; 'b' represents the sample index. The degree of degradation predicted by the GRU sub-model for sample b; To calculate the true degradation degree of sample b in the GRU sub-model, calculate the sub-model weights of each GRU sub-model. : , where M represents the total number of GRU sub-models.

[0087] In this embodiment, the preset accuracy requirement refers to a pre-set performance threshold used to determine whether the degradation trend prediction model is qualified. It is typically measured by calculating the prediction error on a test set; if the error is below this threshold, the model meets the requirements and can be used.

[0088] In this embodiment, the partial autocorrelation function (PACF) is used to determine the relevant steps of the unit's deterioration trend, and the deterioration trend sequence is reconstructed accordingly to generate sample-label pairs. The first few steps of each sample-label pair are then... The training set is used as the training set, and the remaining portion is used as the test set for model testing. The training set is resampled M times with replacement using the Bagging method to obtain M sub-training sets with the same number of samples as the training set. A GRU model is built for each sub-training set and trained. The MSE of each GRU model on the corresponding sub-training set is calculated, and the weights of each GRU model are determined accordingly. The final Bagging-GRU prediction model is obtained based on the weights. The accuracy of the Bagging-GRU model is verified using the test set. If the accuracy requirements are met, it can be used for degradation trend prediction.

[0089] In this embodiment, based on the CRITIC evaluation method, the degradation trends of each main functional chain component are integrated. The weights of the degradation trends of the upper guide bearing's X-direction swing, the upper guide bearing's Y-direction swing, the lower guide bearing's X-direction swing, and the lower guide bearing's Y-direction swing are 0.236, 0.288, 0.248, and 0.228, respectively. The unit degradation trend is then generated accordingly. Figure 4 As shown in the figure, the unit's degradation level exhibits a fluctuating upward trend with increasing operating time, consistent with the feedback from the on-site operation and maintenance report. This demonstrates that the degradation trend assessment method proposed in this invention can effectively assess the unit's degradation status. Based on the Bagging method, a lightweight GRU sub-model with few parameters is constructed, as shown in the figure. Figure 5 The Bagging-GRU prediction model is shown. By analyzing the autocorrelation of the unit deterioration trend sequence using the partial autocorrelation function, it can be seen that the partial autocorrelation function falls within the 95% confidence interval for the first 6 delay steps. Therefore, the number of correlation steps is determined to be 6, and the deterioration trend sequence is reconstructed accordingly, generating a total of 116 sample-label pairs. The first 86 sample-label pairs are used as the training set, and the last 30 sample-label pairs are used as the test set. The Bagging method is then used to process the training set... Second resampling, to obtain For each sub-training sample set, a GRU sub-model is constructed and trained. The training results show that when… When the model training effect is optimal, the Bagging-GRU prediction model (degradation trend prediction model) is compared with the GRU sub-model and the ordinary GRU model. The parameters and prediction performance of each model are shown in Table 2.

[0090] Table 2. Parameter Quantity and Prediction Performance of GRU Sub-models, Bagging-GRU, and Ordinary GRU

[0091] In this embodiment, such as Figure 3 As shown, under conditions of no overfitting and sufficient training, the individual GRU sub-models constituting Bagging-GRU have the smallest parameter size and the worst prediction performance. In contrast, the parameter size of ordinary GRU is 1.64 times that of Bagging-GRU, but its performance in RMSE, MAPE, MAE, R2, and other metrics is inferior to Bagging-GRU. This confirms that the Bagging method can improve the prediction performance of GRU models, achieving optimal prediction performance with small parameter size, low computational resources, and short training time. The trend of prediction degradation is as follows: Figure 6 As shown, by Figure 6 As can be seen, the predicted degradation trend can accurately reflect the degradation evolution of the unit. Therefore, the Bagging-GRU lightweight prediction model proposed in this embodiment performs well, balancing model accuracy and lightweight design. The greater the number of channels and the amount of data, the more obvious the advantages of this embodiment become. It is suitable for scenarios with multiple channels, frequent model updates, and high real-time requirements, such as centralized control centers.

[0092] The working principle and beneficial effects of this embodiment are as follows: Based on the historical hydropower unit deterioration trend sequence, the relevant number of steps is determined, sample-label pairs are reconstructed, and the dataset is divided. Multiple sequence feature learning sub-models are trained on the training sample set through Bagging resampling. The weights are determined according to the mean square error of each sequence feature learning sub-model, and they are weighted and integrated. Finally, the output prediction model is verified. Through ensemble learning, the model variance and overfitting risk are reduced, and the generalization ability and robustness of the prediction model are improved.
