Large spot welder is an important equipment in rail transit equipment manufacturing industry, but having the problem of low utilization rate and low effectlvely machining rate. State monitoring can master its operating states real time and comprehensively, and providing data support for state recognition. Hidden Markov model is a state classification method, but it is sensitive to the initial model parameters and easy to trap into a local optima. Genetic algorithm is a global searching method; however, it is quite poor at hill climbing and also has the problem of premature convergence. In this paper, proposing the improved genetic algorithm, and combining improved genetic algorithm and hidden Markov model, a new method of state recognition method named improved genetic algorithm–hidden Markov model is proposed. In the proposed method, improved genetic algorithm is used for optimizing the initial parameters, and hidden Markov model as a classifier to recognize the operating states for machining process. This method is also compared with the other two recognition methods named adaptive genetic algorithm–hidden Markov model and hidden Markov model, in which adaptive genetic algorithm is similarly used for optimizing the initial parameters, however hidden Markov model (in both methods) as a classifier. Experimental results show that the proposed method is very effective, and the improved genetic algorithm–hidden Markov model recognition method is superior to the adaptive genetic algorithm–hidden Markov model and hidden Markov model recognition method.
