Abstract
En 中文
This article proposes an expectation maximization sample transfer identification (EM-STI) algorithm to address the parameter identification problem in dynamic systems with nonideal data. Traditional identification methods usually require a large amount of high-quality ideal data that follows the same distribution. However, in industrial measurement scenarios, challenges such as sensor noise, environmental complexity, and sensor data loss often make such datasets difficult to obtain. To solve the above problems, the EM-STI algorithm constructs a transfer identification (TI) framework, and models the distribution discrepancy between the source and target systems as latent variables, and iteratively optimizes parameters using the EM algorithm to improve the reliability and accuracy of the model. The core of the algorithm includes establishing a unified probabilistic framework, explicitly modeling distribution differences as latent variables, inferring the latent variable relationships through the expectation step, calculating the log-likelihood expectation, and updating the parameters in the maximization step to reduce distribution discrepancy. The algorithm also provides a theoretical guarantee of convergence. The simulation experiments on the mass-spring-damping system and the pH process system, as well as the industrial case study on the demand prediction of magnesium furnaces, have proved that this algorithm has excellent estimation accuracy under nonideal data conditions such as high noise and data scarcity, and has strong robustness against non-Gaussian noise.
