A Semi-supervised Robust Linear Dynamical System for Industrial Quality Variable Prediction
摘要
Owing to preeminent capabilities of modeling temporally correlated data, linear dynamical systems (LDS) have been widely utilized as soft sensors for predicting industrial quality-related variables that are difficult to measure in real-time. However, outliers in industrial data prevent the LDS from learning appropriate parameters, leading to compromised generalization performance of the LDS. In order to deal with this issue, this paper proposes a semi-supervised robust LDS (SsRLDS). In the SsRLDS, a novel probabilistic graphical model is first designed for improving the immunity of the LDS upon outliers contaminated training data, and an efficient semi-supervised learning algorithm without resorting to mathematical approximations is developed for training the SsRLDS. Finally, the effectiveness of the SsRLDS is verified through a numerical case and an actual industrial case.
