Estimation of neutral lipid and carbohydrate quotas in microalgae using adaptive interval observers
Open accessAbstract
Under stress conditions, microalgae are known to accumulate large amounts of neutral lipids and carbohydrates, which can be used for biofuel production. However, on-line measurement of microalgal biochemical composition is a difficult task which makes the microalgal process rather difficult to manage. In this paper, we propose a so called adaptive interval observer for the on-line estimation of neutral lipid and carbohydrate quotas in microalgae. The observer is based on a change of coordinates that involves a time-varying gain. We introduce dynamics for the gain, whose trajectory converges toward a predefined optimal value (which maximizes the convergence rate of the observer). The observer performance is illustrated with experimental data of Isochrysis sp. cultures under nitrogen limitations and day-night cycle. The proposed observer design appears to be a suitable robust estimation technique.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
