EMPIRICAL MODELING WITH GLOBALLY ENFORCED GENERAL CONSTRAINTS

摘要

In certain embodiments, a method includes formulating an optimization problem to determine a plurality of model parameters of a system to be modeled. The method also includes solving the optimization problem to define an empirical model of the system. The method further includes training the empirical model using training data. The empirical model is constrained via general constraints relating to first-principles information and process knowledge of the system.
