As a highly complex multi-input and multi-output system, blast furnace plays an important role in industrial development. Although much research has been done in the past few decades, there still exist many problems, such as the modeling and control problems. In view of these reasons, this paper is concerned with developing a Wiener model to predict the silicon content of blast furnace. Unlike traditional Wiener model, this paper avoids the optimization of high number of model parameters. The Wiener model here is composed of a basis filter filter expansion named Laguerre filter and a linear programming support vector regression (LP-SVR). They are used to represent the linear dynamic component and the nonlinear static element. Take the advantages that Laguerre filter can approximate linear systems with a lower model and order and LP-SVR can achieve a sparse solution, the proposed Wiener model not only improves the prediction accuracy but also reduces the computation complexity. Simulation results show that this Wiener model is suitable for the prediction of blast furnace silicon content.
