Atoms to Processes: The Role of Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning in Chemical Engineering
Michael Baldea, Linda J. Broadbelt, Marianthi G. Ierapetritou +17
The rapid maturation of artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML) has catalyzed a profound shift in how chemical engineering problems are formulated, analyzed, and sol…
Simulation-Based Optimization over Discrete Spaces using Projection to Continuous Latent Spaces
Gabriel Hernández-Morales, Brenda Cansino-Loeza, Arturo Jiménez-Gutiérrez +1
Simulation-based optimization of complex systems over discrete decision spaces is a challenging computational problem. Specifically, discrete decision spaces lead to a combinatoria…
A Digital Twin Simulator of a Pastillation Process with Applications to Automatic Control based on Computer Vision
Leonardo D. González, Joshua L. Pulsipher, Shengli Jiang +2
We present a digital-twin simulator for a pastillation process. The simulation framework produces realistic thermal image data of the process that is used to train computer vision-…
