Abstract
Abstract Economic model predictive control (EMPC) has attracted significant attention in recent years and is recognized as a promising advanced process control method for next‐generation smart manufacturing. It has the potential to not only improve economic performance but also significantly increase computational complexity. Model approximation has been a standard approach for reducing computational complexity in process control. In this work, we perform a study on three types of representative model approximation methods applied to EMPC, including model reduction based on available first‐principle models (e.g., proper orthogonal decomposition), system identification based on input–output data (e.g., subspace identification) that results in an explicitly expressed mathematical model, and neural networks based on input–output data. A representative algorithm from each model approximation method is considered. Two processes that are very different in dynamic nature and complexity were selected as benchmark processes for computational complexity and economic performance comparison, namely, an alkylation process and a wastewater treatment plant. The strengths and drawbacks of each method are summarized according to the simulation results, with future research direction regarding control‐oriented model approximation proposed at the end.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
