Soft sensor correction

Updated at:

This topic describes the Soft Sensor Correction component.

Function description

The Soft Sensor Correction component corrects prediction results for drift. It uses input lab values and the corresponding predicted values from historical data to perform the correction.

Calculation logic

  • When the lab value correction confirmation signal changes from "Verifying" to "Verified":

The component determines time T from the input year, month, day, hour, and minute parameters. It then reads historical "Predicted Value" data from IGate within a time range of deltaT (maximum time drift) around time T-K (prediction model time drift). From this data, the component finds the predicted value Y_p that is closest to time T-K.

    • If no historical data exists in this time range:

      • Outputs: D=0, E=0, Y_c=Y_mod, ST1=False, ST2=False, ST3=True.

    • If historical data exists in this time range:

      • Outputs: E=Y_lab-Y_p, D=w*E+(1-w)*D_p, Y_c=Y_mod+D, ST1=False, ST2=False, ST3=False.

  • When the lab value correction revoke signal changes from "Revoking" to "Normal":

    • Outputs: D=D_p, E=E_p, Y_c=Y_mod+D, ST1=False, ST2=False, ST3=False.

  • In all other cases:

    • Outputs: D=D_p, E=E_p, Y_c=Y_mod+D, ST1=SW1, ST2=SW2, ST3=False.

Parameter descriptions:

  • Y_mod: The input predicted value.

  • Y_lab: The input lab value.

  • SW1: The input lab value correction confirmation signal.

  • SW2: The input lab value correction revoke signal.

  • w: The input weight.

  • Y_p: The historical predicted value closest to time T-K.

  • D_p: The correction amount from the previous output.

  • E_p: The actual drift from the previous output.

  • D: The output correction amount.

  • E: The output actual drift.

  • Y_c: The output corrected predicted value.

  • ST1: The output verification in-progress status.

  • ST2: The output revocation in-progress status.

  • ST3: The output correction abnormal status.

Output quality code description

The output quality code is processed as follows:

  • If no historical data exists in the correction time range, or if the quality codes of all historical data are in the range [0,192), the output quality code is 0.

  • In all other cases, the output quality code is 192.
