Flux balance analysis (FBA) has been shown to be a very effective tool to interpret and predict the metabolism of various microorganisms when the set of available measurements is not sufficient to determine the fluxes ...

A robust data reconciliation strategy provides unbiased variable estimates in the presence of a moderate quantity of atypical measurements. However, estimates get worse if systematic measurement errors that persist in time ...

In this work, a comparative performance analysis of robust data reconciliation strategies is presented. The study involves two procedures based on the biweight function and three estimation techniques that use the Welsh, ...

The promotion of a better rational use of water in industry requires an adequate knowledge of aqueous streams inside industrial plants. The main difficulty found in this respect is a lack of accurate measurement of such ...

An ad-hoc data reconciliation procedure developed for the recausticizing section of a new pulp and paper industry is presented in this work. A comprehensive model was formulated to take into account different unit operation ...

Reconciliation is the process of providing a consistent view of the data imported from different sources. Despite some efforts reported in the literature for providing data reconciliation solutions with asynchronous ...

Robust Data Reconciliation strategies provide unbiasedvariable estimates in the presence of a moderate quantity of measurement grosserrors. Systematic errors which persist in time, as biases or drifts, overcome thisquantity ...
