Abstract: In this paper, an early warning system of cigarette process quality combined with intelligent sensing technology is proposed to improve the quality of cigarette process production. A PCA multi-block modelling algorithm based on autoencoder feature extraction is proposed to extract autoencoder features from each sub-block, and the statistics of all sub-blocks are fused by Bayesian inference to make the monitoring results more intuitive. Compared with the traditional PCA and AE-PCA detection methods, the AE-MPCA algorithm proposed in this paper improves the abnormality detection accuracy of the drum leaf drying production process, and realises the accurate alarm of quality abnormalities, thus providing technical support for the early warning of subsequent cigarette process quality. In the subsequent process of cigarette process quality control, the application scope of intelligent sensing technology can be further improved to promote the effect of cigarette process quality control.
