Research on Binary Mixed VOCs Gas Identification Method Based on Multi-Task Learning

Year: 2025
Type: article
Abstract: Traditional volatile organic compounds (VOCs) detection models separate component identification and concentration prediction, leading to low feature utilization and limited learning in small-sample scenarios. Here, we realize a Residual Fusion Network based on multi-task learning (MTL-RCANet) to implement component identification and concentration prediction of VOCs. The model integrates channel attention mechanisms and cross-fusion modules to enhance feature extraction capabilities and task synergy. To further balance the tasks, a dynamic weighted loss function is incorporated to adjust weights dynamically according to the training progress of each task, thereby enhancing the overall performance of the model. The proposed network achieves an accuracy of 94.86% and an R2 score of 0.95. Comparative experiments reveal that using only 35% of the total data length as input data yields excellent identification performance. Moreover, multi-task learning effectively integrates feature information across tasks, significantly improving model efficiency compared to single-task learning.
