Abstract

A method of moving horizon state estimation (MHSE) including a recurrent neural network as the dynamic model is used as an estimator of the filling level of the mill for a semiautogenous ore grinding process. The results are compared to those of a simple neural network acting as an estimator. They show the advantages of the Neural-MHSE, especially concerning robustness under large perturbations of the state variables (index of agreement 0.9), which would favor its application to industrial scale processes.
