“…Thus, this work investigates the performance of the hidden Markov model approach on accomplishing chemical process monitoring tasks. The case study is based on the DAMADICS actuator system, a control engineering benchmark (Syfert et al, 2003;Bartys and de las Heras, 2003). Studies concerning applications of HMMs on chemical process monitoring are those by Almeida and Park (2005), Tokatli and Cinar (2004), Yangsheng and Ming (2004), Sun et al, (2003), Chen and Chang (2000), Wong et al, (2001Wong et al, ( , 1998, Bakhtazad et al (2000).…”
