Temporal Convolutional Network-Based Long Short Term Memory and Its Application for Soft Sensor Modeling
摘要
In the modern industrial process, soft sensor modeling is crucial in solving the problem of unmeasurable key quality indicators and achieving real-time dynamic monitoring. However, traditional data-driven methods struggle to capture the complex spatial and temporal dynamics in industrial time-series data. This study proposed a hybrid deep learning framework that integrates temporal convolutional network (TCN) for robust spatial feature extraction with long short-term memory (LSTM) networks for effective temporal dependency modeling. By incorporating batch and control input embeddings, the model adeptly handles inter-batch variability and diverse operational conditions. Evaluated on sulfur recovery and penicillin fermentation datasets, the proposed TCN-LSTM framework demonstrates superior predictive accuracy and robustness compared to baseline models, including standalone TCN, LSTM, and other neural architectures.
