Abstract: To train a machine learning routine (BNN), a sequence of first training data (PIC) is read in through the machine learning routine. The machine learning routine is trained using the first training data, wherein a plurality of learning parameters (LP) of the machine learning routine is set by the training. Furthermore, a value distribution (VLP) of the learning parameters, which occurs during the training, is determined and a continuation signal (CN) is generated on the basis of the determined value distribution of the learning parameters. Depending on the continuation signal, the training is then continued with a further sequence of the first training data or other training data (PIC2) are requested for the training.

Abstract: In order to control a technical system, e.g. of a wind turbine, a temporal sequence of operating parameter values of the technical system that is continuously recorded and continuously converted into a sequence of filtered signal values by a trainable digital filter. The sequence of the filtered signal values is supplied to a mechanical learning routine which derives prediction values therefrom for a target operating parameter. The digital filter and the mechanical learning routine are trained to reduce a distance between derived prediction values and temporally corresponding, actually recorded values of the target operation parameter. The prediction values for controlling the technical system are then emitted.
