Abstract:

In the hot strip rolling process, accurate prediction of bending force can improve the control accuracy of the strip flatness and further improve the quality of the strip. In this paper, based on the production data of 1300 pieces of strip collected from a hot rolling factory, a series of bending force prediction models based on an extreme learning machine (ELM) are proposed. To acquire the optimal model, the parameter settings of the models were investigated, including hidden layer nodes, activation function, population size, crossover probability, and hidden layer structure. Four models are established, one hidden layer ELM model, an optimized ELM model (GAELM) by genetic algorithm (GA), an optimized ELM model (SGELM) by hybrid simulated annealing (SA) and GA, and two-hidden layer optimized ELM model (SGITELM) optimized by SA and GA. The prediction performance is evaluated from the mean absolute error (MAE), root-mean-squared error (RMSE), and mean absolute percentage error (MAPE). The results show that the SGITELM has the highest prediction accuracy in the four models. The RMSE of the proposed SGITELM is 11.2678 kN, and 98.72% of the prediction data have an absolute error of less than 25 kN. This indicates that the proposed SGITELM with strong learning ability and generalization performance can be well applied to hot rolling production.
