MODEL PREDICTIVE CONTROL (MPC) SYSTEM USING DOE BASED MODEL

摘要

A system for automatic control of a process, comprising a process control model using data and further comprising a data model for generating data for said process model and an empirical data extractor for extracting data from said process for said model, and wherein said data used by said process model is interchangeable between data obtained by said data model and data obtained by said extractor (Fig.5). The data model may be a partly statistical partly empirical orthogonal process model. The system is useful in allowing control systems using empirical prediction methods to perform automatic control before having built up a results database.
