The invention relates to a parallel modular neural network-based byproduct gas real-time prediction method. According to the method, according to the principle of
state space segmentation of a neural network, Fuzzy c-means (FCM) clustering is adopted to divide sample data into a plurality of categories; each category is corresponding to the subspace (namely, module) of one
state space; the data are reconstructed, so that a prediction model can be established; in a modeling process, an improved
echo state network is provided, a modular method is adopted to segment the
state space of the neural network into a plurality of independent sub spaces, wherein each subspace is a sub network; a reserve
pool sharing method is used in combination, so that the training of all networks is completed in the same reserve
pool, each sub space is corresponding to an output weight matrix, and therefore, the operation rules of a
system can be better simulated; a network training problem is simplified into a parallel training problem of a plurality of small networks, so that the calculation process of the model can be accelerated; and a
big data sample containing more useful information is introduced, so that the prediction precision of the model can be improved; and a
Map Reduce computing framework is adopted to parallelize solution problems, so that a high speed-up ratio can be obtained, and real-time prediction of the metallurgical gas
system can be realized.
