Abstract

Recurrent neural network (RNN) is used to model product quality of batch processes from process operational data. Due to model-plant mismatches and unmeasured disturbances, the calculated control policy based on the RNN model may not be optimal when applied to the actual process. Model prediction errors from previous runs are used to improve RNN model predictions for the current run. It is proved that the modified model errors are reduced from run to run. Consequently control trajectory gradually approaches the optimal control policy. The proposed scheme is illustrated on a simulated batch reactor.
