Machine learning performs well in many problems. However, the tendency to generate predictions that violate theoretical knowledge makes it difficult to apply to practical processing. To resolve this situation, this paper combines domain knowledge with a data-driven model, proposes a theory-guided machine learning framework based on a parameter transfer strategy, and applies it to the width prediction of plates after multiple passes of hot rolling. The framework applies a swarm optimization algorithm to the original theoretical model and generates numerous highly-physical consistent samples. The established deep neural network (DNN) model is trained with simulated data, and the parameters are fine-tuned using a parameter transfer strategy combined with actual data to ensure excellent adaptation to the actual environment based on adequate learning of theoretical knowledge. In tests, the proposed model had the best overall prediction performance in this paper. Meanwhile, the developed model is consistent with the existing perception of rolling theory. This allows for the quick and reliable application of machine learning models in production. [Display omitted] • A novel theory-guided machine learning framework for width prediction of rolled plates. • Pre-training of the model using the data generated by the optimized theoretical model. • The proposed model has the best accuracy in both sufficient and less actual samples. • The variable influence of the proposed model is consistent with theoretical perceptions.
