Application of classifier system to human support of hot strip mill operation

In this paper, the application of the classifier system to human support of hot strip mill operation and making decision rules by the classifier system are described. The rule base for the correction of operation and the judgment of performance are necessary for the system that becomes agent of the human expert. The method to extract correction rules by a classifier system is shown. To search appropriate rules, the genetic algorithm is applied to the rule generation part of the classifier system. And, the usefulness of the obtained rules is confirmed through numerical experiments.
