Abstract
Deep Learning is a candidate for advanced process control, but requires a significant amount of process data not normally available from regular plant operation data. Embodiments disclosed herein are directed to solving this issue. One example embodiment is a method for creating a Deep Learning based model predictive controller for an industrial process. The example method includes creating a linear dynamic model of the industrial process, and based on the linear dynamic model, creating a linear model predictive controller to control and perturb the industrial process. The linear model predictive controller is employed in the industrial process and data is collected during execution of the industrial process. The example method further includes training a Deep Learning model of the industrial process based on the data collected using the linear model predictive controller, and based on the Deep Learning model, creating a Deep Learning model predictive controller to control the industrial process.
