Sensor Data Imputation for Industry Reactor Based on Temporal Decomposition

In the processing of industry front-end waste, the reactor plays a critical role as a key piece of equipment, making its operational status monitoring essential. However, in practical applications, issues such as equipment aging, data transmission failures, and storage faults often lead to data loss, which affects monitoring accuracy. Traditional methods for handling missing data, such as ignoring, deleting, or interpolation, have various shortcomings and struggle to meet the demand for accurate data under complex operating conditions. In recent years, although artificial intelligence-based machine learning techniques have made progress in data imputation, existing methods still face limitations in capturing the coupling relationships between the sequential and channel dimensions of time series data. To address this issue, this paper proposes a time series decoupling-based data imputation model, referred to as the Decomposite-based Transformer Model (DTM). This model utilizes a time series decoupling method to decompose time series data for separate sequential modeling and employs the proposed MixTransformer module to capture channel-wise information and sequence-wise information, enabling deep modeling. To validate the performance of the proposed model, we designed data imputation experiments under two fault scenarios: random data loss and single-channel data loss. Experimental results demonstrate that the DTM model consistently performs well across multiple data imputation tasks, achieving leading performance in several tasks.
