Abstract: This disclosure relates to analyzing a fermentation process that occurs in a bioreactor. Such a fermentation process may involve microbes consuming a substrate, and producing various metabolites. A computing device may train and execute one or more machine learning models to analyze such a fermentation process. Such a machine learning model may be configured to determine a current fermentation state of such a fermentation process as one example. As another example, a machine learning model may be configured to predict metabolite production of a fermentation process based on historical fermentation data and a window of control decisions for the fermentation process.
