The invention discloses an
alloy grade identification method based on a pearson
correlation coefficient. The method comprises the steps of (1), determining a matching element set; (2), testing element content information of a to-be-identified sample through a
spectrograph and extracting each element content value Xi in the matching element set; (3) extracting a content upper limit Xmaxi value and a
lower limit Xmini value of each element of the matching element set in certain grade; (4), establishing a real matching vector Vreal and an ideal matching vector Videal; (5), calculating the pearson
correlation coefficient between the real matching vector Vreal and the ideal matching vector Videal; and (6), repeating the steps (3)-(5), until the pearson correlation coefficients of all grades in a grade
library are calculated, wherein the grade with the maximum
correlation coefficient is the grade to which the to-be-identified sample belongs. According to the method, an operation process is simple, operation results are normalized data, there is no dimension, values are between -1 to 1, the value 1 indicates that the grade matches the test result completely, under the other condition, the more the value is approximate to 1, the higher the matching degree is, and the more the value is approximate to -1, the lower the matching degree is.
