Description
A closed-loop universal multivariable optimizer is designed to enhance both the performance and quality of Model Predictive Control (MPC) systems. This optimizer utilizes data from Excel files sourced from Dynamic Matrix Control (DMC) by Aspen Tech, Robust Model Predictive Control Technology (RMPCT) from Honeywell, or Predict Pro from Emerson to develop and refine accurate models for various multivariable-controller variable (MV-CV) pairs. This innovative optimization technology eliminates the need for step tests typically required by Aspen Tech and Honeywell, operating entirely within the time domain while remaining user-friendly, compact, and efficient. Given that Model Predictive Controls (MPC) can encompass tens or even hundreds of dynamic models, the possibility of incorrect models is a significant concern. The presence of inaccurate dynamic models in MPCs leads to bias, which is identified as model prediction error, manifesting as discrepancies between predicted signals and actual measurements from sensors. COLUMBO serves as a powerful tool to enhance the accuracy of Model Predictive Control (MPC) models, effectively utilizing either open-loop or fully closed-loop data to ensure optimal performance. By addressing the potential for errors in dynamic models, COLUMBO aims to significantly improve overall control system effectiveness.
Description
Automated variable selection helps to pinpoint essential variables along with their interactions, while effective visualization techniques enhance understanding of data and model behaviors. Additionally, the execution of batch commands complements SQL queries and dataset exploration. Pre-processing and post-processing steps are crucial for variable creation and output constraints, among other tasks. Models can be readily deployed through ActiveX (i.e., OCX) controls or DLLs, making implementation straightforward. The suite of advanced modeling algorithms encompasses regression, neural networks, self-organizing maps, dynamic clustering, decision trees, fuzzy logic, and genetic algorithms. Predictive Dynamix offers robust computational intelligence software that serves a wide array of applications, including forecasting, predictive modeling, pattern recognition, classification, and optimization, catering to various industries. Leveraging modern neural network technologies, these solutions provide powerful mechanisms for tackling complex challenges in forecasting and pattern recognition. Multi-layer perceptron neural networks are particularly noteworthy for their architecture, enabling multiple coefficients for each input variable, thus enhancing the model's adaptability and accuracy. This versatility in neural network design is crucial for addressing the diverse needs of contemporary data analysis challenges.
