Abstract
A method for controlling an industrial process includes: determining, by a process controller, based at least in part on a set of current values and/or past values of state variables of the industrial process, a set of control outputs to be applied to at least one actor and/or lower-level controller configured to cause a performing of at least one physical action on the process; querying, based on at least a subset of the set of current values and/or past values of state variables and on at least a subset of the set of control outputs, a trained machine-learning model configured to output a classification value, and/or a regression value, that is indicative of a propensity of a watching human operator to at least partially override the control outputs delivered by the process controller; and determining that the classification value, the regression value, and/or the propensity, meets a predetermined criterion.
