The stages of preparing training data for model parameters identification purposes are described, as well as these aimed at verifying the quality of the evaluated model. In order to meet the tasks of machine learning, additive regression model was applied. Identification of the additive model parameters was performed on the basis of iterative backfitting algorithm combined with nonparametric estimation techniques. The proposed models have predictive nature and are aimed at simulation of the motor power signal of a coal mill during its regular operation, startup and shutdown. A comparative analysis has been performed of the models structured differently in terms of identification quality and sensitivity to the existence of an exemplary disturbance in the form of overhangs in the coal bunker. Tests carried out on the basis of real measuring data registered in the Polish power unit with a capacity of 200 MW confirm the effectiveness of the method.}, type={Article}, title={The identification method of the coal mill motor power model with the use of machine learning techniques}, URL={http://www.czasopisma.pan.pl/Content/118764/PDF/11_01517_Bpast.No.69(1)_01.03.21_K1_G.pdf}, doi={10.24425/bpasts.2021.135842}, keywords={coal mill motor power, nonlinear model identification, machine learning, additive regression model, process monitoring}, }
