Abstract:Distillation exhibits highly nonlinear dynamic behavior and the development of suitable nonlinear model to distillation pose a challenging problem to current process industry. In the absence of a reasonably accurate nonlinear model, distillation column is difficult to control using advanced model based control strategies. In this paper, a novel sigmoidnet based nonlinear auto-regressive with exogenous inputs (NARX) model is developed for high purity distillation column and verified using the experimentally val… Show more
The global burden of dengue, a mosquito-borne viral infection,
has alarmingly increased in recent decades. The rise in disease
occurrence is mainly attributed to changes in the climate, human
ecology, globalization, and demography. In such a scenario, an accurate
prediction of a dengue outbreak is essential to reduce the morbidity
rate significantly. Therefore, this paper employs two classes of
autoregressive models for dengue forecasting and a recently proposed
approach called Finite Element Machine for Regression (FEMaR). Further,
it proposes a variant of the latter, namely FEMaR-KD, which allows the
exploration of k -approximate nearest neighbors to interpolate data
points based on k -neighborhood instead of the whole dataset. Such
models are built considering environmental parameters, which denote one
of the main determinants for infection occurrence. Finally, the proposed
models’ performance is assessed over two distinct datasets, considering
differing spatial scales and regions. Results show that FEMaR obtained
Mean Absolute Error up to 51% smaller than the autoregressive
models considering univariate scenarios and Root Mean Squared Error up
to 63% smaller regarding the univariate models.

“…Many model structures have been proposed for the identification of distillation column such as NARX model [4,5], Hammerstein model [6], and Weiner model [7]. The nonlinear static block followed by a linear dynamic block in the Hammerstein model has been considered as alternative to linear models in a number of chemical process applications such as distillation columns [6], heat exchangers [1], and CSTR [8].…”
Developing a suitable nonlinear model is the most challenging problem in the application of nonlinear model based controllers to distillation column. Hammerstein model consists of a nonlinear static element described by wavenet based nonlinear function, followed by a linear dynamic element described by the Output Error(OE) model was used in this study to represent the nonlinear dynamics of the distillation column. The model parameters were identified using iterative prediction-error minimization method. The model validation results proved that the Hammerstein model was capable of capturing the nonlinear dynamics of distillation column.
