Decomposition-Based Bayesian Network Structure Learning Algorithm for Abnormity Diagnosis Model for Coal Mill Process

In the structure learning of the large-scale Bayesian network (BN) model for the coal mill process, taking the view of the problem that the decomposition-based method cannot guarantee the sufficient learning of abnormal state node neighborhood in the diagnosis model, this paper proposes a new BN structure learning method based on decomposition. Firstly, a sketch is constructed based on an improved Markov blanket discovery algorithm and edge thickening and thinning. Second, the node centrality of k-path is used to search the important nodes, and the subgraph decomposition is realized by extracting these important nodes and their neighborhoods from the sketch. Then, through the targeted design of subgraph de-duplication, subgraph learning, and subgraph reorganization methods, the learning of large-scale BN is realized. This method is applied to public data sets, and its advantages and disadvantages are analyzed by comparing them with other methods. The advantage of the BN structure learning method of the abnormal condition diagnosis model is further verified by applying the method to the coal mill process, which is consistent with the original design intention.
