Reducing Measurement Costs of Thermal Power: An Advanced MISM (Mamba with Improved SSM Embedding in MLP) Regression Model for Accurate CO2 Emission Accounting

Current calculation methods for the carbon content as received (<i>C_ar</i>) of coal rely on multiple instruments, leading to high costs for enterprises. There is a need for a cost-effective model that maintains accuracy in CO₂ emission accounting. This study introduces an MISM model using key parameters identified through correlation and ablation analyses. An Improved State-Space Model (ISSM) and an IS-Mamba module are integrated into a Multi-Layer Perceptron (MLP) framework, enhancing information flow and regression accuracy. The MISM model demonstrates superior performance over traditional methods, reducing the Root Mean Square Error (RMSE) by 22.36% compared to MLP, and by 9.65% compared to Mamba. Using only six selected parameters, the MISM model achieves a precision of 0.27% for the discrepancy between the calculated CO₂ emissions and the actual measurements. An ablation analysis confirms the importance of certain parameters and the effectiveness of the IS-Mamba module at improving model performance. This paper offers an innovative solution for accurate and cost-effective carbon accounting in the thermal power sector, supporting China's carbon peaking and carbon neutrality goals.
