Hybrid Models
An engineering module for building hybrid models and physics-informed neural networks (PINNs) to predict process variables, analyze and optimize operating conditions
- Physics and data
- Combining material and heat balances, engineering relationships and machine learning models to model equipment behavior and refine relationships using data
- Physics-informed neural networks
- PINNs incorporate process equations, conservation laws, initial and boundary conditions into neural network training to solve forward and inverse problems
- Model training and validation
- Training on plant, experimental and simulation data, validation against independent datasets, and assessment of accuracy and the domain of applicability
