摘要

摘要: 实际工业数据因检测方式不同, 过程变量与质量指标往往采样速率各异, 受低采样率数据影响, 可有效利用的样本稀缺, 传统建模精度难以提升. 此外, 因过程响应特性及传感器部署分布差异使各过程变量相对最终产品质量指标存在不同程度时滞, 但实际现场无法进行阶跃测试使得过程时滞难以测量, 进一步增加了建模难度. 为此, 本文提出一种面向多速率难测时滞工业过程的质量指标建模方法, 该方法首先设计基于核Copula熵的数据依赖结构时滞估计方法, 通过核Copula熵定量分析过程数据依赖结构关联强度, 将时滞参数估计问题转化为寻找最大依赖结构关联度问题, 引入专家经验约束依赖结构寻优过程, 保证时滞参数符合工业现场情况并修正数据时序对应关系. 进一步, 提出一种多速率采样数据时空约束网络模型, 该模型通过融合数据的时序特性与空间关联性, 构建时序因果的邻近样本质量指标的时空距离相似度约束矩阵, 据此充分挖掘无质量指标标签样本信息辅助模型构建, 提升软测量建模精度, 并且证明了网络模型的收敛性. 最后, 基于数值仿真和实际磨矿数据工业实验验证了所提方法的可行性和有效性

Abstract: In actual industrial processes, variations in detection methods often result in differing sampling rates between process variables and quality indices. Such multirate data characteristics lead to a scarcity of usable samples with quality index labels, posing significant challenges for traditional modeling approaches in achieving high accuracy. Furthermore, process variables frequently exhibit varying degrees of time delay relative to quality indices due to diverse process response characteristics and sensor distributions. The impracticality of conducting step tests under field conditions further complicates the accurate measurement of these delays. To address these issues, this paper proposes a quality index modeling method for multirate industrial processes with difficult-to-measure time delays. First, a data dependency structure time-delay estimation approach based on kernel copula entropy is developed. By quantitatively assessing the strength of dependency structures, this approach transforms time-delay estimation into an optimization problem of finding the maximum dependency structure. This optimization is further constrained by expert knowledge to ensure industrial plausibility and facilitate temporal data alignment. Subsequently, a Multirate Sampled-data Spatiotemporal Constrained Network is designed. By fusing the temporal characteristics and spatial correlations of causally related samples, this network constructs a constraint matrix to effectively utilize abundant samples without quality index labels for model construction. The convergence of the proposed method is theoretically demonstrated. Finally, comprehensive numerical simulations and industrial case studies on grinding process data validate the feasibility and superiority of the proposed method.
