  • Publication number: 20220291671
    Abstract: Provided is a control apparatus comprising a control unit configured to control a control target by a control model machine-learned so as to output an operation amount of the control target according to a state of equipment provided with the control target; a simulation unit configured to simulate, by using a simulation model, the state of the equipment in a case where the operation amount, which is output by the control model, is given to the control target; and a stop unit configured to stop control of the control target by the control model, based on a simulation result.

  • Publication number: 20220284158
    Abstract: Provided is a determination apparatus comprising: a state data acquisition unit configured to acquire state data indicative of a state of equipment provided with a control target; an operation amount data acquisition unit configured to acquire operation amount data indicative of an operation amount of the control target; a control model generation unit configured to generate a control model, which outputs the operation amount corresponding to the state of the equipment, by machine learning by using the state data and the operation amount data; a simulation unit configured to simulate, by using a simulation model, the state of the equipment in a case where the operation amount, which is output by the control model, is given to the control target; and a determination unit configured to determine whether control of the control target by the control model is possible, based on a simulation result.
