  • Patent number: 12443779
    Abstract: The invention provides a soft measurement method for dioxin emission of grate furnace MSWI process based on simplified deep forest regression of residual fitting mechanism. The highly toxic pollutant dioxin (DXN) generated in the solid waste incineration process is a key environmental index which must be subjected to control. The rapid and accurate soft measurement of the DXN emission concentration is an urgent affair for reducing the emission control of the pollutants. The method comprises the following steps: firstly, carrying out feature selection on a high-dimensional process variable by adopting mutual information and significance test; then, constructing a simplified deep forest regression (SDFR) algorithm to learn a nonlinear relationship between the selected process variable and the DXN emission concentration; and finally, designing a gradient enhancement strategy based on a residual error fitting (REF) mechanism to improve the generalization performance of a layer-by-layer learning process.

  • Publication number: 20220092482
    Abstract: A method for predicting dioxin (DXN) emission concentration based on hybrid integration of random forest (RF) and gradient boosting decision tree (GBDT). A random sampling of a training sample and an input feature is performed on a modeling data with a small sample size and a high-dimensional characteristic to generate a training subset. J RF-based DXN sub-models based on the training subset are established. J×I GBDT-based DXN sub-models are established by performing I iterations on each of the RF-based DXN sub-models. Predicted outputs of the RF-based DXN sub-model and the GBDT-based DXN sub-model are combined by a simple average weighting method to obtain a final output.
