Abstract

Since geological structures around coal mines are complex, sudden coal mine water inflow is seriously threatening coal mining safety. To improve the accuracy of predicting coal mine water inflow, a multi-source dataset is collected to develop a coal mine water inflow prediction model based on multi-factor Pearson correlation analysis, where a convolutional neural network and bidirectional long short-term memory neural network are adopted to extract features from time-series data. To validate the performance of the present prediction model, a case study is conducted, where the predicted coal mine water inflow is close to the collected coal mine water inflow. Meanwhile, compared to other prediction models, the present prediction model can predict the magnitude and development trend of coal mine water inflow in the next 8 h more accurately, where the mean absolute percentage error is 5.76% and the correlation coefficient is 0.922.
