TY - CHAP AB - This work describes a simple algorithm based on partial least square (PLS) to enable the construction of surrogate models using a single tuning parameter. The proposed algorithm is illustrated with the case study of a membrane module for natural gas sweetening, where a mechanistic model is used as data generator. The effect of the tuning parameter is analysed, and it is shown that this parameter captures the trade-off between the surrogates’ accuracy and their complexity (number of terms). The algorithm performance is also compared with four different approaches from the literature, showing a similar performance.
