Abstract
A method for automatic identification of important batch events for a batch execution alignment algorithm, including receiving historical batch data of a batch process, wherein the historical batch data comprises a plurality of batch executions, and wherein each of the plurality of batch executions comprises a plurality of batch events, indicating a specific event of the batch process, and at least one time series of a process variable, indicating a development of the process variable during the batch process; determining a distance between the at least one time series of the plurality of the batch executions for each of the plurality of batch events; and identifying at least one important batch event for a batch execution alignment algorithm with a smallest distance using the determined distances.
