- Python introduction: Python documents and learning materials, introduction to environments and IDEs, Python installation, introduction to python libraries used during the course
2.DATA PROCESSING - Scaling techniques: scaling data to a range, scaling sparse data, scaling data with outliers, normalization
- Data cleaning from industrial processes: how a database is done, data flow on a plant, case specific measurement issues and how to overcome them, data filtering
3.BLACK BOX MODELLING - Artificial Neural network: applications in chemical engineering, activation functions, multilayer perceptron, backpropagation algorithm, overfitting and early stopping, cross-validation
- Multivariate rational function: approximation of a function, ideal distribution for approximation, distribution in chemical engineering case, the structure of an multivariate rational function, difference between polynomial and multivariate rational function
- Heuristic optimization: particle swarm optimization and application in chemical engineering, differential evolution and application in chemical engineering
- Gradient-based optimization: differences with an heuristic optimization, gradient descent, stochastic gradient descent, learning rate, linear programming
4.HYBRID MODELLING - Build and application of hybrid model in chemical case: different stucture of an hybrid model, the advantages to use an hybrid model rather a pure black-box or white-box, hybrid model application in chemical engineering

Transfer of partial marks within the academic year | ✔ |

Conditions transfer of partial marks within the academic year | One Test using Excel (pinch 25%) One report(group 50%) 2 Homeworks
(individual 15%)
The grade for the homework tasks will be retained. The test on Pinch
technology (25% of Final Grade - FG) can be retaken if the grade is
< 12/20. If the grade on this test is > 12/20, this grade will also be
retained.
Almost every week there are very small homeworks. There will be 2 larger
individual homeworks during the semester. Homework grade retained to 2nd
exam.
At the end of the semester the students will deliver reports. (Group
work /50% FG). Report grade retained for second chance.
This report will also be defended via a presentation (see evaluation in
exam eriod 10% FG). |

Additional information | Almost every week there are very small homeworks. There will be 2 larger individual homeworks during the semester. (Average of homeworks - larger : 15% of final grade-FG) At the end of the semester the students will deliver reports. (Group work /50% FG) This report will also be defended via a presentation (10% FG). There will also be a test for the part on Pinch technology (scored practice session, closed book with open formulas 25% FG) |

Second examination period
Evaluation second examination opportunity different from first examination opprt | |
|
Explanation (English) | The report (50% Final Grade-FG) can be corrected and send as second
chance. The test (25% FG) can be repeated. The other grades remain the
same, no second chance for that part. |
