The proposed method uses conditional normalizing flows as discrete-time models (DTMs) to learn the stochastic dynamics of chemical processes, which often exhibit non-trivial correlations and state-dependent fluctuations. This approach allows for formulating stochastic and probabilistic setpoint-tracking objectives and chance constraints, leading to improved predictions and control strategies. The authors demonstrate the effectiveness of their method in simulations of a continuous reactor and a reactor cascade, showcasing stable and high-quality results.

Chemical processes can be tricky because they involve random events that affect how things happen. Scientists usually try to predict what will happen by adding some noise to their calculations, but this isn’t always accurate. This research suggests using special models called conditional normalizing flows to better understand these complex chemical reactions. These models learn patterns in the data and make predictions based on those patterns. The results show that this approach is useful for controlling chemical processes and making reliable decisions.
