Abstract

This study allows comparing two competitive modelling techniques to identify the electric arc dynamics of a furnace. The first technique relies on a linear kRX model whereas the second one relies on a non linear ARX model built from a MLP neural network. Results clearly point out the benefits of using a non-linear model for this particular non-linear application.
