Abstract: Environmental cost refers to the cost paid by enterprises to reduce environmental pollution and resource depletion in production and operation. To help enterprises reduce environmental costs, a manufacturing environmental cost control algorithm based on machine learning is proposed. The probabilistic neural network is used to classify the current environmental cost control level of different manufacturing enterprises. Then, the particle swarm optimization (PSO) algorithm is improved to build a multi-objective backbone PSO algorithm for multi-objective decision-making, which is used in the selection of environmental cost control methods. The experimental results show that there is a strong correlation between the original data classification and the proposed probabilistic neural network, and the correlation reaches 96.1%. PSO performance test results show that the algorithm has the best performance, the best stability, and the shortest time needed to find the optimal solution set when the initial particle number is 140 and the number of iterations is 60. Based on the comprehensive experimental results, the following conclusions are drawn. Enterprises should strengthen collaboration and cooperation with customers, suppliers, and waste-profiting enterprises, so as to well control environmental costs. To sum up, the proposed model provides some references for the adoption of machine learning in environmental cost control of manufacturing enterprises.
