Abstract:As one of the important indicators for evaluating the quality of sintered ore, the drum index directly affects the stability of blast furnace production. Based on the sintering production data of an iron and steel enterprise, a prediction method of sinter drum index based on feature engineering and image recognition technology was proposed. Firstly, the data preprocessing was completed for the selected 3 categories of 28 important indicators that affect the sinter drum index. Then, the feature parameters that had a greater impact on the target variable were screened out through the SVM-RFE algorithm and the crossvalidation algorithm. Finally, the convolutional neural network was used to train the twodimensional feature image transformed by the data features, and a prediction model of the sinter drum index based on the convolutional neural network was established. The results show that the hit rate of the model is as high as 93.71% with an error margin of ±1%. This method of converting data features into image features effectively improves the prediction ability, and has a good reference for the future development of predictive sintering technology.
