Evaluating Evolutionary Algorithms and Differential Evolution for the Online Optimization of Fermentation Processes
نویسندگان
چکیده
Although important contributions have been made in recent years within the field of bioprocess model development and validation, in many cases the utility of even relatively good models for process optimization with current state-of-the-art algorithms (mostly offline approaches) is quite low. The main cause for this is that open-loop fermentations do not compensate for the differences observed between model predictions and real variables, whose consequences can lead to quite undesirable consequences. In this work, the performance of two different algorithms belonging to the main groups of Evolutionary Algorithms (EA) and Differential Evolution (DE) is compared in the task of online optimisation of fed-batch fermentation processes. The proposed approach enables to obtain results close to the ones predicted initially by the mathematical models of the process, deals well with the noise in state variables and exhibits properties of graceful degradation. When comparing the optimization algorithms, the DE seems the best alternative, but its superiority seems to decrease when noisier settings are considered.

Differential Evolution for the Offline and Online Optimization of Fed-Batch Fermentation Processes
The optimization of input variables (typically feeding trajectories over time) in fed-batch fermentations has gained special attention, given the economic impact and the complexity of the problem. Evolutionary Computation (EC) has been a source of algorithms that have shown good performance in this task. In this chapter, Differential Evolution (DE) is proposed to tackle this problem and quite p...
