  • Method and system for managing model updates for process models
    Patent number: 11906951
    Abstract: A method may include obtaining acquired process data regarding a plant process that is performed by a plant system. The method may further include obtaining from a process model, simulated process data regarding the plant process. The method may further include determining drift data for the process model based on a difference between the acquired process data and the simulated process data. The drift data may correspond to an amount of model drift associated with the process model. The method may further include determining whether the drift data satisfies a predetermined criterion. The method further includes determining, in response to determining that the drift data fails to satisfy the predetermined criterion, a model update for the process model.
