Abstract:

To address the challenges posed by nonlinearity and the coupling of multiple features in complex industrial processes, resulting in increased model complexity and decreased performance, a soft sensor modeling method based on adaptive sparse broad learning system is proposed. Building upon the lateral enhancement transmission of features, the trace least absolute shrinkage and selection operator (LASSO) is further used to optimize the feature weights of the network, adaptively adjusting the penalty intensity based on the correlation between different variables to enhance the feature extraction capabilities of the model.The Dropout mechanism is introduced in the enhanced part, and the output weights are utilized by LASSO to sparsely optimize the model as a whole, eliminating excess nodes, and reducing redundant data in the calculation process. Experimental results show that the proposed method can effectively simplify the model structure and improve its prediction performance.

Key words: soft sensor, broad learning system, trace least absolute shrinkage and selection operator (LASSO), regularization, sparse model
