Iw. Kim et al., ROBUST DATA RECONCILIATION AND GROSS ERROR-DETECTION - THE MODIFIED MIMT USING NLP, Computers & chemical engineering, 21(7), 1997, pp. 775-782
The Modified Iterative Measurement Test (MIMT) gross error detection a
lgorithm has been improved using nonlinear programming techniques to i
mprove its robustness and performance. Both data reconciliation and es
timation of gross errors in MIMT can utilize nonlinear programming (NL
P) techniques. The algorithm has been tested on a CSTR example and sho
ws improved robustness compared to existing gross error detection algo
rithms. Therefore this enhanced algorithm appears to be quite promisin
g for data reconciliation and gross error detection of highly nonlinea
r processes in chemical engineering. (C) 1997 Elsevier Science Ltd.
