Abstract

A learning process for a neural network for open-loop or closed-loop control of an industrial process with time-variable parameters. The neural network is configured either as an open-loop or closed-loop-control network with which the process is controlled. The neural network is trained with the current process data so that it builds a model of the current process. The neural network can also be configured as a background network which is trained during operation with representative process data so that it builds an averaged model of the process over a longer period of time. After a certain learning time or upon the occurrence of an external event, the open-loop or closed-control network is replaced by the background network.
