Soft - sensing modeling based on ABC - MLSSVM inversion for marine low - temperature alkaline protease MP...

Aiming at the characteristics of nonlinear, multi-parameter, strong coupling and difficulty in direct on-line measurement of key biological parameters of marine low-temperature protease fermentation process, a soft-sensing modeling method based on artificial bee colony (ABC) and multiple least squares support vector machine (MLSSVM) inversion for marine protease fermentation process is proposed.

Firstly, based on the material balance and the characteristics of the fermentation process, the dynamic "grey box" model of the fed-batch fermentation process of marine protease is established. The inverse model is constructed by analyzing the inverse system existence and introducing the characteristic information of the fermentation process. Then, the inverse model is identified off-line using MLSSVM. Meanwhile, in order to reduce the model error, the ABC algorithm is used to correct the inverse model. Finally, the corrected inverse model is connected in series to the marine alkaline protease MP fermentation process to form a composite pseudo-linear system, thus, real-time on-line prediction of key biological parameters in fermentation process can be realized.

Taking the alkaline protease MP fermentation process as an example, the simulation results demonstrate that the soft-sensing modeling method can solve the real-time prediction problem of key biological parameters in the fermentation process on-line, and has higher accuracy and generalization ability than the traditional soft-sensing method of support vector machine.

The research provides a new method for soft-sensing modeling of key biological parameters in fermentation process, which can be extended to soft-sensing modeling of general nonlinear systems.
