In the tapping process, a tapping worker observes the comprehensive conditions of tapping steel flow, liquid level in the converter, large ladle emptying and the like at an observation window behind the converter, the tilting angle of the converter is continuously increased, and meanwhile, the positions of a ladle trolley and a slag ladle car are adjusted, so that the phenomenon that molten steel coiled slag flows into the ladle due to the fact that the liquid level of the steel in the converter is too close to a tapping hole is avoided, and in addition, the phenomenon that the molten steel of steel slag in the converter overflows from the converter mouth due to the fact that the converter cannot be tilted too fast is. In the final stage of tapping, if slag is discharged from a tapping hole, tapping is stopped in time, the converter is swung to a zero position, the ladle trolley is driven out of the tapping position, and the tapping can be completed only by at least 2-3 experienced operators in the whole process through mutual cooperation.

In the later stage of the tilting operation, when a converter slag tapping detection system 5 detects a slag tapping signal, a communication control module synchronously transmits the signal to a deep learning host 6; the deep learning host 6 sends an instruction to the converter steelmaking secondary control system 4 through the communication control module, and the deep learning host controls the tapping hole slag stopping system to execute slag stopping operation; after the operation is completed, the tap hole slag trap system transmits a tap end signal to the steelmaking secondary control system 4, which returns to the tilting furnace 8 according to a predetermined scheme.
The deep learning host 6 extracts abnormal target data of slag to be discharged from the furnace mouth, slag discharged from the furnace mouth or slag coil of the steel stream from the image data of the steel stream state and the state change of the furnace mouth, and inputs the corresponding image data as a new sample into the neural network model for iterative training so as to improve the identification accuracy.
The deep learning type neural network technology is an application of an artificial intelligence technology in the field of industrial control, more mature technologies can be directly utilized, and parameters can be adjusted according to actual requirements in a specific application process.
Taking the YOLO neural network model as an example, the training process is as follows: designing a neural network model structure, extracting a characteristic vector through a convolution layer, and obtaining a predicted value through a connection layer; different state targets, the layer number design is different; after the design is finished, pre-training is carried out, a mean square error loss function is adjusted, and weights of different parts are distinguished; then, obtaining a most probable result as a predicted value through a non-maximum inhibition algorithm, and optimizing a neural network to finally reach a result meeting the condition through the iterative model training by increasing the number of samples;

The deep learning host 6 is mainly used for a machine vision part, and enables a computer to autonomously identify and mark a specified target or state by analyzing and processing data of a specific state characteristic picture. The aim of reducing unnecessary manual operation is achieved by directly transmitting parameters among modules in a computer program. The system is mainly applied to analyzing and judging the states of the steel flow shape, the width, the boundary position of the furnace mouth, the liquid level position of slag in the furnace, whether the furnace mouth is slagging, the surface shape of the slag liquid level and the like. The deep learning host 6 adopts a learning type computer host integrating a plurality of GPUs on hardware.

An example neural network model training process is as follows:
firstly, a YOLO neural network model (reference: https:// pjredbie. com/darknet/YOLO /) is designed and selected, a characteristic vector is extracted through a convolutional layer, and a connection layer obtains a predicted value. The layer number design is different for different state targets. After the design is finished, pre-training is carried out on the network, the mean square error loss function is adjusted, and weights of different parts are distinguished. And then, obtaining a most possible result as a predicted value through a non-maximum suppression algorithm (non maximum suppression), and optimizing the neural network to finally reach a result meeting the condition through increasing the number of samples and training an iterative model.
Taking the example of judging whether the furnace mouth is submerged slag or not, in the tapping process, the tapping furnace mouth video SPV transmitted back in real time from the furnace mouth monitoring module is used as input information, and the machine identification subsystem MIS in the model calculates the extreme value area of the first derivative through the area of the rapid change of the pixel value function, so that the boundary position of the slag liquid level in the furnace, the boundary position of the furnace mouth and the like can be automatically marked, and whether the slag liquid level boundary exceeds the furnace mouth boundary or not is further calculated, so that whether the furnace mouth is submerged slag or not can be judged.

Each image is represented by a matrix of pixel values, which may be stacked in rows or columns into individual long vectors, and the simplest way to calculate the image gradient is to calculate the difference of the image along the horizontal (X) and vertical (Y) axes separately and then synthesize them into a two-dimensional vector. After removing unnecessary parameters with a vector mask or filter, the YOLO neural network is loaded and input pre-processing is set as needed. After classification, the network gives a probability vector, and through the probability vector, the program can calibrate the steel flow boundary position, the slag entrapment boundary position and the like. And analyzing the steel flow form through the probability vector, counting time equivalence of steel tapping, and carrying out subsequent processing on the converted information, comparing the converted information with the stored values in the model database and judging whether the converted information is abnormal or not.

(5) the deep learning host 6 guides the tilting action time, the tilting target angle and the target angle retention time of the steelmaking secondary control system according to the feedback output information of the intelligent tapping neural network model, such as the taphole slag-off state and whether the tapping steel flow is abnormal;
