Research and development of thick plate shape prediction system based on industrial big data by Yufei MA, Changxin LIU, Wei KONG, Jinliang DING

“…Thick plate shape is one of the important indicators to measure the quality of thick plate products.The timely prediction of the final plate shape in production is of great significance for adjusting the operation and control of thick plate production.In actual industrial production, thick plate data has many characteristics, such as multiple coupling information, large amount of redundant information, and multi-source heterogeneity of data.Combining the needs of thick plate shape prediction, a thick plate shape prediction system was designed and developed.The data dump function was used to filter and preprocess the industrial big data to remove the coupling information and redundant variables in the data.LSTM neural network, convolutional neural network and 3D convolutional neural network were used to extract data features from data of different dimensions, and the features were fused based on the maximum mutual information coefficient to establish an integrated learning prediction model, which effectively solved the modeling difficulties caused by multi-source heterogeneous data.The actual industrial data of a domestic thick plate production line was used for verification, and the results showed the effectiveness of the developed system.…”
