Abstract
In this study, methods from the field of deep learning are used to calibrate a metal oxide semiconductor (MOS) gas sensor in a complex environment in order to be able to predict a specific gas concentration. Specifically, we want to tackle the problem of long calibration times and the problem of transferring calibrations between sensors, which is a severe challenge for the widespread use of MOS gas sensor systems. Therefore, this contribution aims to significantly diminish those problems by applying transfer learning from the field of deep learning. Within the field of deep learning, transfer learning has become more and more popular. Nowadays, building a model (calibrating a sensor) based on pre-trained models instead of training from scratch is a standard routine. This allows the model to train with inherent information and reach a suitable solution much faster or more accurately. For predicting the gas concentration with a MOS gas sensor operated dynamically using temperature cycling, the calibration time can be significantly reduced for all nine target gases at the ppb level (seven volatile organic compounds plus carbon monoxide and hydrogen). It was possible to reduce the calibration time by up to 93% and still obtain root-mean-squared error (RMSE) values only double the best achieved RMSEs. In order to obtain the best possible transferability, different transfer methods and the influence of different transfer data sets for training were investigated. Finally, transfer learning based on neural networks is compared to a global calibration model based on feature extraction, selection, and regression to place the results in the context of already existing work.
