> GLOBAL NEURAL CONTROL OF A CHEMICAL REACTOR
> by: Prof. Miloslav Hajek (Senior Lecturer)
>     Department of Computer Science
>     University of Durban-Westville
>     South Africa
>
> Abstract: A neural network is proposed to simulate dynamic behaviour
> of a continuous stirred tank reactor. The network with two hidden layers,
> seven inputs, and two outputs was trained by a backpropagation learning
> algorithm. The network is capable to learn the global behaviour of the
> reactor and can be used as a one-step-ahead predictor in the whole
> region in which it was trained. The network is used by a "topological"
> control algorithm that can drive the reactor either to the desired steady
> state or as close as possible. A comparison of the result with the Fuzzy
> Control with Genetic Algorithm rule-optimization will also be presented.

> Dr Miloslav HAJEK graduated from Prague Institute of Chemical Technology,
> in 1970 received his PhD degree in Technical Cybernetics at the same
> university. Until 1994 he was an Associate Professor at the above Institute.
> In 1976 he was a research fellow at UMIST in Manchester. From 1989 to 1991
> he was with the University of Zimbabwe, since 1991 he has been at the
> University of Durban-Westville in South Africa.

> His research interests are neural networks, fuzzy systems, and genetic
> algorithms.

> Date  : Wednesday, 29 March 1995
> Time  : 11.30-12.30
