Abstract

The method of making the tool, for process system identification that is based on the general purpose learning capabilities of neural networks. The method can be used for a wide variety of system identification problems with little or no analytic effort. A neural network is trained using a process model to approximate a function which relates process input and output data to process parameter values. Once trained, the network can be used as a system identification tool. In principle, this approach can be used for linear or nonlinear processes, for open or closed loop identification, and for identifying any or all process parameters.
