Efficient and accurate predication of mechanical properties is the key to controlling the production process. In this paper, a novel Prediction Interval (PI) based method is proposed for forecasting strip steel properties. It specifically consists of a Lower Upper Bound Estimation (LUBE) technique for PI generation based on Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) and a Coverage Width Symmetry-based Criterion (CWSC) for PI evaluation. To evaluate the proposed method, computational experiments are carried out on two numerical datasets and two real-world datasets from a strip steel production process. A comparison between the results obtained by this work and previous work shows that the proposed method is viable and achieves more advantages. Moreover, the PI constructed on the real-world datasets achieve better quality, demonstrating that the proposed method has good potential in real-world problems.
