Description
Summary:In practical implementation of machine learning modeling, training data often involve noise which can cause performance degradation as the machine learning model may overfit the noisy pattern. This work focuses on a novel machine learning training approach, termed co-teaching method, that utilizes both noisy data from industrial datasets and noise-free data from first-principles model solutions to improve model accuracy. Specifically, we consider an ASPEN dataset with non-Gaussian noise data, and develop two long short-term memory (LSTM) networks following the standard training process, and the co-teaching training method, respectively. A chemical process example is used to demonstrate the improved model accuracy under co-teaching method in both open-loop operation and closed-loop operation under model predictive control.
