A neural model-predictive control (NMPC) method is proposed in which a multilayer neural network represents the forward process model. This method is based on the deepest descent optimization algorithm. The calculation is completely in the domain of neural network.A distributed parameter anthracene crystal growth process is used as an example to demonstrate the proposed method. Good results are obtained by simulation tests using both three-layer and two-layer networks.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
