Sparse representation preserving embedding based on extreme learning machine for process monitoring

Abstract

Extreme learning machine (ELM) is a fast learning mechanism used in many domains. Unsupervised ELM has improved to extract nonlinear features. A nonlinear dynamic process monitoring method named sparse representation preserving embedding based on ELM (SRPE-ELM) is proposed in this paper. First, the noise is removed by sparse representation and the sparse coefficient is applied to construct the adjacency graph. The adjacency graph with a data-adaptive neighborhood can extract dynamic manifold structure better than a specified neighborhood parameter. Secondly, a new objection function considered the sparse reconstruction and output weights is established to extract nonlinear dynamic manifold structure. Thirdly, the statistic SPE and T2 based on SRPE-ELM are built to monitor the whole process. Finally, SRPE-ELM is applied in the IRIS data classification example, a numerical case and Tennessee Eastman benchmark process to verify the effectiveness of process monitoring.
