Definitions
- the invention relates to a method, an arrangement and a computer program for designing a technical system.
- Optimality criteria such as D-optimality, A-optimality or E-optimality are used (see [2]).
- the object of the invention is to create a possibility for the design of a technical system, in particular an optimized setting of the technical system is guaranteed without a validated global computing model of the system being available.
- a method for designing a technical system in which a statistical model is determined on the basis of at least one measured value of the technical system. At least one model parameter of the statistical model is determined. The technical system is optimized in a predetermined range on the basis of the statistical model and at least one parameter vector is determined in the process. The at least one parameter vector is used to design the technical system.
- An advantage of the method is to automatically ensure a suitable parameter vector, that is to say an assignment of possible adjustable parameters (which are expediently summarized and referred to as a parameter vector). These individual parameters for the respective technical system ensure optimized operation, in particular with regard to energy consumption, environmental compatibility, costs, and the technical system.
- a further development is that a further measured value is determined for the value of the at least one parameter vector, or the target variable is measured at the location of the parameter vector, and the statistical model is determined taking this further measured value into account.
- the process then branches to the step at which at least one model parameter of the statistical model is determined.
- the method can advantageously be carried out iteratively until an abort condition is met.
- a termination condition can consist, for example, that in a further iteration step, compared to the previous step or several previous steps, an insignificant improvement is achieved, that is to say that the improvement lies below a predetermined threshold value.
- a method for designing a technical system in which a statistical model is determined on the basis of at least one measured value of the technical system.
- the scatter component of the statistical model is taken into account by determining several model parameters that lie in a confidence range. Optimizations are carried out for the models determined by the several model parameters, a parameter vector being determined for each optimization. Using an opti ality criterion, a suitable parameter vector is determined with regard to significance and process behavior. This suitable parameter vector is used to design the technical system.
- the Opti ality criterion ensures that an improvement is achieved both in terms of the significance of the statistical model and in terms of process behavior, that is, in terms of optimizing the process size. It is advantageous to focus on an improvement in significance, because the Meaningfulness with regard to an improved process behavior is only made possible.
- One embodiment consists in that a further measured value is determined for the value of the suitable parameter vector and the statistical model is determined on the basis of the further measured value. It is then preferably branched to the step of the method in which a dispersion of the statistical model is taken into account (step b).
- the statistical model does not completely match the values of the technical system that have already been measured, this results in a scatter which is taken into account in the context of the different model parameters.
- a confidence interval of 95% determined by the scatter can expediently be specified. Iterations of the described method or the described methods increasingly determine measured values which make it possible to model the underlying technical system ever better. This results in an increasingly better confidence interval for several model parameters.
- the iteration that is to say the determination of the further measured value, preferably places the predetermined range around this newly ascertained measured value and thus, if necessary, a different range is taken into account in the modeling than in the previous iteration step.
- the local optimum in relation to the target size, for example the energy consumption is determined within the area in the course of the iterations.
- An advantageous embodiment consists in that, as stated above, taking into account the further measured value, the predetermined range around this measured value, preferably symmetrically around this measured value, is created.
- the target variable or target variables
- An advantageous embodiment also consists in that not only the position but also the size of the area is adapted for statistical modeling. This can e.g. about statistical tests of the residuals of the statistical model. Tests of the variance or the normal distribution assumption of the residuals can be considered.
- a further development consists in particular in that the optimality criterion for selection from a plurality of parameter vectors is a D optimality criterion.
- the statistical model is a method of statistical compensation calculation.
- an approximative can be created using a
- the statistical compensation calculation can use a function that takes into account the specified properties of the underlying technical system (for example an e-function).
- quadratic optimization (QP) methods can be used for the optimization calculation.
- Processor unit which is set up in such a way that a) a statistical model can be determined on the basis of at least one measured value of the technical system; b) at least one model parameter of the statistical model can be determined; c) an optimization in a predetermined area of the technical system can be carried out on the basis of the statistical model and at least one parameter vector can be determined; d) the at least one parameter vector can be used to design the technical system.
- an arrangement for designing a technical system which has a processor unit which is set up in such a way that a) a statistical model can be determined on the basis of at least one measured value of the technical system; b) a dispersion of the statistical model is taken into account in that several model parameters which lie in a confidence range can be determined; c) optimizations can be carried out for the models determined by the several model parameters, a parameter vector being determined for each optimization; d) a parameter vector suitable in terms of significance and process behavior can be determined on the basis of an optimality criterion; e) the suitable parameter vector can be used to design the technical system.
- a computer program which is set up in such a way that it executes the following steps when it runs on a processor unit: a) a statistical model is determined on the basis of at least one measured value of the technical system; b) at least one model parameter of the statistical model is determined; c) an optimization in a predetermined area of the technical system is carried out on the basis of the statistical model, and at least one parameter vector is determined; d) the at least one parameter vector is used to design the technical system.

- Fig.l is a block diagram with steps of a method for designing a technical system
- FIG. 2 shows a block diagram with steps of an alternative method for designing a technical system
- Fig.l is a block diagram showing steps of a method for designing a technical system.
- the draft can be a redesign, an adaptation, a validation, a simulation, a realization or a control of the technical system.
- a measured value is determined in a block 101, on the basis of which a statistical model is calculated in a block 102, preferably using a statistical compensation calculation, in particular using a polynomial approach.
- the adjustment of the measured value (or the measured values, as soon as there are several) to the model can serve as a default according to the following relationship (for the quadratic approach):
- T MW a + bx + x ex + ⁇
- MW denotes the measured value or the already existing measured values
- x a parameter vector, a to c model parameters and ⁇ a statistical scatter.
- the parameter vector x preferably includes influencing factors, that is to say influenceable variables of the technical system.
- the parameter vector x can also have variables of the technical system that cannot be influenced.
- a value assignment of the parameter vector x is preferably to be determined, on the basis of which the system is optimally set or designed.
- the model parameters a, b and c are intended to adapt the quadratic model to the real specification. For this purpose, common methods of
- the model parameters a, b and c are subject to variation if they do not model the technical system exactly (which is rarely the case); this variation gives a possibility of variation in the selection of the model parameters within a confidence interval.
- each value assignment of the model parameters a, b and c leads to a modeling.
- several value assignments of model parameters are preferably determined.
- a value assignment for the model parameters is determined in step 103.
- the optimization is expediently carried out with regard to a target function; For example, an objective function "energy consumption" should be minimized from an economic point of view.
- the assignment that is optimal for the current model is determined from the space of the possible parameter vectors (design variants of the technical system) (see block 105). For this, e.g. a method of quadratic optimization.
- a measurement is carried out - simulated or actually - and a value for the target function is determined in step 106.
- This value is used for an area that contains a section of the indicates the entire course of the target function in the space of the parameter vector (step 107).
- Fig.2 is partially analogous to Fig.l (especially the
- Steps 201 and 202) with the additional requirement that several assignments of the model parameters a, b and c are determined which are in the range of the confidence interval (cf. step 203). There is then an optimization for each modeling, that is to say each assignment of the model parameters results in its own optimization, which as a result provides an assignment of the parameter vector (step 204). From a multiplicity of value assignments of the parameter vectors determined in this way, using a D-optimality criterion, the value assignment of the
- Parameter vector (cf. step 206) is determined, which is optimal in terms of significance and the size of the target function.
- the D optimality criterion is primarily based on the significance. Thus, by increasing the significance, a confidence interval with higher reliability (“confidence") can be achieved, the meaningfulness of the value of the objective function increases with increasing confidence interval and thus with reduced scatter.
- a further measured value (step 207) at the location of the parameter vector determined by means of the D-optimality criterion, on average, a statement of higher quality with regard to the significance results in the following iteration steps. By shifting the range (for an explanation, see Fig. 1 above), a drift to the local optimum is achieved on average.
- the optimization is preferably limited to the area and is therefore usually only moved in the medium term towards the local optimum by the drift movement of the area (the shift is caused by new parameter vectors which lie outside the center).
- a parameter vector can also result that lies on the limitation of the area. This leads to a shift in the direction of this parameter vector, the parameter vector preferably indicating the center of the shifted area.
- the illustrative representation of the displacement is not limited to an imaginable space (e.g. dimension three).
- the parameter vector usually comprises a large number of components, each of which adds a dimension to the space of the parameter vector.
- the design mechanisms are as described, only for reasons of clarity, a low-dimensional example is taken up.
- step 1 and 2 each contain an iteration loop from step 107 to step 102 and from step 208 to step 202.
- an abort condition can ensure that this is not an endless loop.
- FIG. 3 shows a sketch of a function curve 301 as a function of a parameter vector xl.
- An example is the parameter vector x of dimension one, indicated by the only component xl.
- the curve course 301 shows the actual but unknown course of the target function.
- the objective function is the
- Modeling on the basis of the measured values known in the area results, for example, in a curve 307, the minimum of which lies at point B (or shortly before if B itself is not contained in the area).
- a processor unit PRZE is shown in FIG.
- the processor unit PRZE comprises a processor CPU, a memory SPE and an input / output interface IOS, which is used in different ways via an interface IFC: output is visible on a monitor MON and / or on a printer via a graphic interface PRT issued. An entry is made using a mouse MAS or a keyboard TAST.
- the processor unit PRZE also has a data bus BUS, which connects a memory
