Vibration prediction and analysis of strip rolling mill based on XGBoost and Bayesian optimization

Abstract

The stable operation of strip rolling mill is the key factor to ensure the stability of product quality. The design capability of existing domestic imported and self-developed strip rolling mills cannot be fully developed, and the frequent occurrence of mill vibration and operation instability problems seriously restrict the equipment capacity and the production of high-end strip products. The vibration prediction analysis method for hot strip mill based on eXtreme gradient boosting (XGBoost) and Bayesian optimization (BO) is proposed. First, an XGBoost prediction model is developed based on a self-built data set to construct a complex functional relationship between process parameters and rolling mill vibration. Second, the important hyperparameters and parameters of XGBoost are optimized using Bayesian optimization algorithm to improve the prediction accuracy, computational efficiency, and stability of the model. Third, a comprehensive comparison is made between the prediction model in this paper and other well-known machine learning benchmark models. Finally, the prediction results of the model are interpreted using the SHapley Additive exPlanations (SHAP) method. The proposed model outperforms existing models in terms of prediction accuracy, computational speed and stability. At the same time, the degree of influence of each feature on rolling mill vibration is also obtained.

“…Conventional approaches, such as grid search and random search, can assist in finding a suitable set of model hyperparameters, but they can be time-consuming and labor-intensive, particularly with a large-scale dataset (Joy et al, 2020;Yin and Li, 2022;Zhang et al, 2023).…”

Wear prediction model of hot rolling backup roll based on FEM + ML algorithm

“…Xing et al [11] used BP neural network to establish an inverse model reflecting the relationship between strip steel performance indicators, steel chemical composition and rolling process parameters. In all these studies [12][13][14][15], ML algorithm predicted coupled hot rolling parameters in hot rolling processes by building a "black box model".…”

Study on the effect of rolling mill dynamic stiffness on coupled vibration of hydraulic machine

“…This approach significantly improved the calculation efficiency, prediction accuracy, and stability of the pre-vibration model, whereas the horizontal and vertical coupling dynamic model of the mill was established by considering the gap between the work roll and the stand. Finally, an engineering test platform was designed by combining Newmark-β numerical integration and Riccati matrix, and it was used to analyze the vibration signals of SPA-H strips with various specifications [4]- [6].…”
