    Abstract

    Process controller synthesis with detailed models is a challenging task, which may lead to many advantageous closed-loop features. Model reduction such as Proper Orthogonal Decomposition (POD) and (adaptive) linearization can be applied to tackle with the arising problems, whereas process data can be directly used to build accurate models via training of artificial neural networks (ANN). In this contribution, we present two methodologies we have recently developed, which combine ANN with POD, for use in the context of MPC: the process at hand is represented as a sum of products of time- varying coefficients (computed with ANN) with the POD basis functions computed from plant " snapshots" The resulting accurate model can be used in NMPC, or trajectory piecewise linearization along a reference path can be applied on the ANN, yielding a series of linear models, suitable for linear MPC. © 2012 Elsevier B.V.
