CONDITIONING DATA FOR CONFIGURING SOFT SENSORS
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18208901 titled 'CONDITIONING DATA FOR CONFIGURING SOFT SENSORS
Original Abstract Submitted
Approaches for conditioning one or more process variables for configuring soft sensors, are described. According to one example, a processor may receive unconditioned data comprising data points or process variables indicating one or more characteristics associated with a process. The unconditioned data may be supplemented with an auxiliary set of process variables on detecting one or more missing process variables within the unconditioned data. A modified unconditioned data may thus be obtained. Further, a conditioned set of process variables, empirically representing the one or more characteristics associated with the process, may be identified from within the modified unconditioned data. The conditioned set of process variables may be provided to a plurality of inferential modellers to configure one or more soft sensors. A soft sensor, from among the one or more soft sensors, may then be selected for predicting runtime conformance metric associated with an outcome of the process.
