Abstract: Variational Quantum Computing (VQC) faces fundamental scalability barriers, primarily due to the presence of barren plateaus and its sensitivity to quantum noise. To address these challenges, we introduce TensorHyper-VQC, a novel tensor-train (TT)-guided hypernetwork framework that significantly improves the robustness and scalability of VQC. Our framework fully delegates the generation of quantum circuit parameters to a classical TT network, effectively decoupling optimization from quantum hardware. This innovative parameterization mitigates gradient vanishing, enhances noise resilience through structured low-rank representations, and facilitates efficient gradient propagation. Grounded in Neural Tangent Kernel and statistical learning theory, our rigorous theoretical analyses establish strong guarantees on approximation capability, optimization stability, and generalization performance. Extensive empirical results across quantum dot classification, Max-Cut optimization, and molecular quantum simulation tasks demonstrate that TensorHyper-VQC consistently achieves superior performance and robust noise tolerance, including hardware-level validation on a 156-qubit IBM Heron processor. These results position TensorHyper-VQC as a scalable and noise-resilient framework for advancing practical quantum machine learning on near-term devices.

تقديم TensorHyper-VQC يمثل تقدمًا كبيرًا في مجال الحوسبة الكمومية المتغيرة (VQC)، حيث يتناول القضايا الحرجة المتعلقة بالقدرة على التوسع التي أعاقت التقدم. من خلال استخدام شبكة هايبر موجهة بواسطة قطار توتري، يعزز هذا الإطار المبتكر متانة الدوائر الكمومية ويخفف من آثار الضوضاء الكمومية. هذا التطور مهم لأنه يمهد الطريق لحلول حوسبة كمومية أكثر كفاءة، مما قد يسرع من تحقيق التطبيقات الكمومية العملية.

La introducción de TensorHyper-VQC marca un avance significativo en el campo de la Computación Cuántica Variacional (VQC), abordando problemas críticos de escalabilidad que han obstaculizado el progreso. Al utilizar un hiperred guiada por un tren tensorial, este innovador marco mejora la robustez de los circuitos cuánticos y mitiga los efectos del ruido cuántico. Este desarrollo es crucial, ya que allana el camino para soluciones de computación cuántica más eficientes, lo que podría acelerar la realización de aplicaciones cuánticas prácticas.

Hi there. In this article, I'll be going over the process of how you can create a macOS 26 Tahoe USB bootable installation drive.

<h2>
 
 
 YouTube Video
</h2>

If you would prefer to see a video of this article, there is a video version available on YouTube below:

<iframe width="710" height="399" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/BBiWy6FrtM4">
</iframe>


<h2>
 
 
 Requirements
</h2>

To do this, you'll need macOS 10.15 or above (I used macOS 15) and a 32GB USB stick or higher to create the installation drive.

Before you start, make sure to backup any data that is on the USB stick as the USB stick will be erased as part of the process.

<h2>
 
 
 Downloading the macOS 26 Tahoe Installer
</h2>

Unlike previous versions of macOS, macOS 26 Tahoe is not available in the App store. It can only be downloaded via the command line for the full version that is used to create an installation disk.

To begin with, you'll need to open the terminal application. To this, use spotlight by pressing command and space together. Then, type terminal and hover over to the terminal application. It looks like a black box with a white arrow. Left click on it to open the application.

Your terminal may look different to mine but don't worry.

You can also get to it by opening a Finder window, going to Applications, then Utilities and then double clicking on Terminal.

First, you need to determine what the latest version of Tahoe is. There are two ways to do this. First, you can use this <a href="">webpage</a>, which shows it is being 26.1 at the time of writing this article.

<a href="https://media2.dev.to/dynamic/image/width=800%2Cheight=%2Cfit=scale-down%2Cgravity=auto%2Cformat=auto/https%3A%2F%2Fdev-to-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fuploads%2Farticles%2F7p6roxf0ufy5frukae2c.png" class="article-body-image-wrapper"><img src="https://media2.dev.to/dynamic/image/width=800%2Cheight=%2Cfit=scale-down%2Cgravity=auto%2Cformat=auto/https%3A%2F%2Fdev-to-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fuploads%2Farticles%2F7p6roxf0ufy5frukae2c.png" alt="Image 1" width="800" height="354"></a>

The second method is to run the following command in the terminal: 


<div class="highlight js-code-highlight">
<pre class="highlight shell"><code>softwareupdate --list-full-installers
</code></pre>

</div>



The latest version is at the top, which again is 26.1.

<a href="https://media2.dev.to/dynamic/image/width=800%2Cheight=%2Cfit=scale-down%2Cgravity=auto%2Cformat=auto/https%3A%2F%2Fdev-to-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fuploads%2Farticles%2Fcogm6l42kciu08k750nl.png" class="article-body-image-wrapper"><img src="https://media2.dev.to/dynamic/image/width=800%2Cheight=%2Cfit=scale-down%2Cgravity=auto%2Cformat=auto/https%3A%2F%2Fdev-to-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fuploads%2Farticles%2Fcogm6l42kciu08k750nl.png" alt="Image 2" width="800" height="461"></a>

The next step is to download the installer for macOS 26.1. To do that, run the following command. If a newer version is available, replace <code>26.1</code> with that version, if you want to: 


<div class="highlight js-code-highlight">
<pre class="highlight shell"><code>softwareupdate --fetch-full-installer --full-installer-version 26.1
</code></pre>

</div>



It will now download the installer. This will take some time.

<a href="https://media2.dev.to/dynamic/image/width=800%2Cheight=%2Cfit=scale-down%2Cgravity=auto%2Cformat=auto/https%3A%2F%2Fdev-to-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fuploads%2Farticles%2Ffqmovocs202pw2bwdjib.png" class="article-body-image-wrapper"><img src="https://media2.dev.to/dynamic/image/width=800%2Cheight=%2Cfit=scale-down%2Cgravity=auto%2Cformat=auto/https%3A%2F%2Fdev-to-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fuploads%2Farticles%2Ffqmovocs202pw2bwdjib.png" alt="Image 3" width="800" height="462"></a>

<h2>
 
 
 Creating the USB Installation Drive
</h2>

Now that the installer has finished downloading, you should be able to see it in the Applications folder in Finder.

<a href="https://media2.dev.to/dynamic/image/width=800%2Cheight=%2Cfit=scale-down%2Cgravity=auto%2Cformat=auto/https%3A%2F%2Fdev-to-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fuploads%2Farticles%2F9gkffyhw77ufowhtpd54.png" class="article-body-image-wrapper"><img src="https://media2.dev.to/dynamic/image/width=800%2Cheight=%2Cfit=scale-down%2Cgravity=auto%2Cformat=auto/https%3A%2F%2Fdev-to-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fuploads%2Farticles%2F9gkffyhw77ufowhtpd54.png" alt="Image 4" width="800" height="495"></a>

The next step is to make the USB installation drive. First, make sure your USB stick is connected to your Mac.

Mine is connected and it's called usbstick.

I would recommend renaming your USB stick to a name that has no spaces to make it easier.

Once again, remember to backup anything that is on the USB stick that you want to keep.

When you are ready, run the following command in the terminal. Replace <code>usbstick</code> with the name of your USB stick. 


<div class="highlight js-code-highlight">
<pre class="highlight shell"><code>sudo /Applications/Install\ macOS\ Tahoe.app/Contents/Resources/createinstallmedia --volume /Volumes/usbstick
</code></pre>

</div>



Press enter and then type in your password, or the username and password for an administrator account if your account doesn't have that level of permission.

When it asks you to confirm the USB stick can be erased, press <code>y</code> and then enter.

Your USB stick will disappear from Finder and then come back with the name of Install macOS Tahoe. This is normal.

The progress will be shown on the screen.

Once it has completed, the terminal will look like the below image.

<a href="https://media2.dev.to/dynamic/image/width=800%2Cheight=%2Cfit=scale-down%2Cgravity=auto%2Cformat=auto/https%3A%2F%2Fdev-to-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fuploads%2Farticles%2Ff69snvwmd4xsra2ugsos.png" class="article-body-image-wrapper"><img src="https://media2.dev.to/dynamic/image/width=800%2Cheight=%2Cfit=scale-down%2Cgravity=auto%2Cformat=auto/https%3A%2F%2Fdev-to-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fuploads%2Farticles%2Ff69snvwmd4xsra2ugsos.png" alt="Image 5" width="800" height="462"></a>

You can now use that to boot from and install, or reinstall macOS 26 Tahoe on a <a href="">supported Mac</a>.

How To Create A macOS 26 Tahoe USB Installation Drive

You don’t need to shout to be heard; you need to be clear and verifiable. Teams that treat publishing like a product discipline consistently outperform those chasing hacks. That’s why many engineering leaders pair solid writing with measurable distribution and—only where it helps—specialist partners offering <a href="https://techwavespr.com/services/" rel="noopener noreferrer">digital marketing services</a> to keep the pipeline of attention honest and repeatable. This piece distills a pragmatic framework for content that survives scrutiny and compounds over time.

<h2>
 
 
 The Operating Model: From “Post and Pray” to Repeatable Pipelines
</h2>

Great articles don’t appear out of nowhere—they move through a pipeline with explicit gates. Think of it as CI/CD for ideas:

<ul>
<li>Discovery → Drafting → Review → Publish → Observe.</li>
</ul>

At each stage, you’re validating something different: whether the topic matters, whether the draft is clear, whether claims are supported, whether the page renders fast and clean, and how readers actually engage. This isn’t bureaucracy; it’s how you protect your future self from firefighting.

Discovery is about narrowing to problems your readers already feel. The fastest test is to write the problem in one sentence and ask a skeptical colleague if it describes a real moment they’ve lived. If they hesitate, refine until they can retell it in their words.

Drafting prioritizes specificity. Replace abstractions with measurements (“p95 latency dropped from 480 ms to 160 ms”) and name the trade-offs. Engineers recognize truth in constraints. Avoid performative flourishes; ship facts.

Review is a multidisciplinary check: technical accuracy, legal and privacy considerations, and plain-language clarity. The review should be adversarial but bounded—identify a small set of non-negotiables (e.g., security statements must be vetted; benchmarks must be reproducible). Everything else is style, not a blocker.

Publish with a minimum of ceremony but maximum reliability. If your site breaks on mobile, the message never lands. If you embed media, ensure fallbacks. If you annotate with structured data, verify it. This sounds obvious until you audit a few dozen pages and find preventable failures.

Observe like an engineer: define a hypothesis before release (“We expect 40%+ of readers to expand the code sample and average time-on-page of 2:30”), then log events and read them. If the hypothesis fails, write a brief note and iterate. That humility builds more credibility than any slogan.

<h2>
 
 
 Signals That Help Machines and Humans Understand Your Page
</h2>

We don’t have to guess how parsers and browsers treat core elements—there’s public guidance. For example, the robots meta tag is precisely documented by <a href="https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/HTML/Element/meta/name#robots" rel="noopener noreferrer">MDN Web Docs</a>. Misusing it can quietly hide your excellent work. Likewise, clear directives for crawlers are outlined in Google’s official documentation on <a href="https://developers.google.com/search/docs/crawling-indexing/robots-meta-tag" rel="noopener noreferrer">robots meta directives</a>. You don’t need to become a specialist to benefit: read the short sections relevant to your use case, pick defaults that match your intent (e.g., indexable article pages, non-index utility endpoints), and avoid contradictory signals.

Beyond directives, content earns trust through coherence:

<ul>
<li>
Titles that promise exactly what the body delivers. If the headline says “How We Cut p95 by 3×,” your method and measurement must be visible above the fold.</li>
<li>
Stable URLs. Breaking links is reputational debt. Treat slugs like API versions; change only with migration plans.</li>
<li>
Readable structure. Short paragraphs, code blocks that run, diagrams with alt text, and captions that say what the reader should notice.</li>
<li>
Transparent authorship. A byline with real identity and a sentence on why this person is qualified. Anonymous thought leadership rarely persuades engineers.</li>
</ul>

<h2>
 
 
 The Only Checklist You Actually Need
</h2>

Use this once per article. If you can’t check a box truthfully, fix the cause instead of gaming the symptom.

<ul>
<li>
One-sentence reader problem is clear (share with a skeptic; they should nod).</li>
<li>
Core claim is measurable (numbers, method, and where data lives).</li>
<li>
Page renders fast and clean (mobile first; images sized; no layout shift).</li>
<li>
Directives match intent (no accidental <code>noindex</code>; canonical is correct; no conflicting hints).</li>
<li>
Source links are authoritative (stand on primary docs or peer-reviewed material, not hearsay).</li>
<li>
Reproducibility where relevant (runnable code, version pins, or data snapshot).</li>
<li>
Post-publish hypothesis defined (what success looks like and what you’ll do if it doesn’t happen).</li>
</ul>

Keep this list visible to your team. It’s short on purpose; bloat turns checklists into theater.

<h2>
 
 
 Writing That Respects the Reader’s Time
</h2>

Engineers are allergic to hand-waving. To earn trust, write like you debug:

<ol>
<li>
State the claim. Put the outcome up front. Don’t make people dig.</li>
<li>
Show the path. Provide the minimal context to reproduce. If there are three plausible methods, say why you chose one.</li>
<li>
Expose trade-offs. Every decision has a downside—latency for compute, privacy for convenience, simplicity for flexibility. Calling that out makes the win believable.</li>
<li>
Acknowledge prior art. Name the people and projects you built upon. It’s generous and prevents reinventing the wheel.</li>
<li>
Invite falsification. Offer a way to challenge your result—dataset link, script, or a note on environments where your approach might fail.</li>
</ol>

This style doesn’t just “sound technical.” It protects your team when later decisions reference your document. You’ll thank yourself when a VP says, “Why did we pick this?” and you can point to a paragraph that still holds up.

<h2>
 
 
 Distribution Without the Guilt
</h2>

You don’t need tricks to reach the right readers—you need consistency and fit. Publish where developers already hang out (like Dev.to and your project’s repo), cross-post summaries to communities that value your topic, and keep the voice consistent. Avoid anchor spam and cartoonish calls to action. Invite contact for real reasons: bug reports, benchmarks on different hardware, adoption stories, or counterexamples.

When you link to resources, choose anchors that fit naturally into the sentence. The goal is to be helpful first. Over-optimized phrasing reads strangely to humans and invites the wrong kind of attention from machines. Think of links as citations, not bait.

<h2>
 
 
 Governance: Tiny Rituals That Prevent Big Headaches
</h2>

A lightweight content guild—two to four people who care—can review each draft for clarity, risk, and usefulness. Rotate the “final approver” so the process never bottlenecks. Archive decisions in a living doc: when a topic performed poorly, say so and explain what you learned; when an article exceeded expectations, annotate why (timing, community tie-in, or a strong demo). Over a quarter, this becomes an internal playbook your future teammates will treat as gold.

<h2>
 
 
 The Payoff
</h2>

When you adopt an engineering posture toward content, the benefits accumulate: fewer hotfixes after publish, fewer awkward retractions, more inbound from readers who actually implemented your work, and a library you can confidently resurface months later. Most importantly, you build an audience that trusts you—because your writing respects their time and intelligence.

Bottom line: publish less often, but make each piece unarguably useful. Measure outcomes, admit misses, and iterate in public. That honesty travels further than any tagline.

Build Content Like an Engineer: Systems, Signals, and Checks That Earn Trust

If you've ever seen "TBA/TBA" as a passenger name in a flight booking, it's not a glitch—it's a feature. After booking a cheap group fare on Yatra.com, I discovered the hidden world of airline group bookings, and uncovered a real bug with same-name passengers.

In this post, we'll unpack:

<ul>
<li>How group fare booking systems work</li>
<li>Why "TBA" exists in airline PNRs</li>
<li>What developers building travel systems should know</li>
<li>
A critical bug I found: Same-name passengers causing seat swaps</li>
</ul>




<h2>
 
 
 ✈️ 1. What Are Group Fares?
</h2>

Group fares are special airline rates for 10+ passengers traveling together on the same flight and date.

Common use cases:

<ul>
<li>🏢 Corporate trips</li>
<li>💒 Weddings and family gatherings</li>
<li>🕌 Pilgrimage or religious tours</li>
<li>🏀 School or sports teams</li>
</ul>

Unlike individual bookings, group fares are:

<ul>
<li>
Negotiated directly with airlines or via GDS</li>
<li>More flexible with payment schedules</li>
<li>Allow placeholder names initially</li>
</ul>




<h2>
 
 
 2. Business Logic: The Group Booking Flow
</h2>

Here's how it works from an OTA or travel agent's perspective:

<div class="table-wrapper-paragraph"><table>
<thead>
<tr>
<th>Step</th>
<th>Process</th>
<th>Description</th>
</tr>
</thead>
<tbody>
<tr>
<td>1️⃣</td>
<td>Group Quote Request</td>
<td>Agency requests fare for route, date, and passenger count</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>2️⃣</td>
<td>PNR Creation (TBA stage)</td>
<td>Airline/GDS creates group PNR with placeholders like <code>TBA/TBA</code>
</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>3️⃣</td>
<td>Deposit &amp; Hold</td>
<td>Group pays deposit to hold seats</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>4️⃣</td>
<td>Name Finalization</td>
<td>12–72 hours before flight, replace "TBA" with real names</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>5️⃣</td>
<td>Ticketing</td>
<td>Once names finalized, tickets are issued</td>
</tr>
</tbody>
</table></div>




<h2>
 
 
 📋 3. What Does "TBA" Actually Mean?
</h2>

TBA = To Be Advised

When creating a group booking, actual passenger details may not be known yet.

Example in GDS (Amadeus/Sabre):

Each entry reserves a seat while allowing the agent to:

<ul>
<li>
Hold inventory without final names</li>
<li>
Track blocked seats in airline systems</li>
<li>
Display flight details before passenger confirmation</li>
</ul>

<h4>
 
 
 How GDS Systems Power This Magic
</h4>

Behind the scenes, OTAs don't talk directly to each airline. They use GDS (Global Distribution System) — think of it as the "API gateway" of the travel industry.

The Big Three:

<ul>
<li>
Amadeus (European dominance)</li>
<li>
Sabre (Strong in Americas)</li>
<li>
Travelport (Galileo/Worldspan/Apollo)</li>
</ul>




<h2>
 
 
 ⏰ 4. The 12-Hour Rule
</h2>

Most airlines require final passenger names no later than 12 hours before departure.

What happens at finalization:

<ul>
<li>✅ All "TBA" placeholders updated with real names</li>
<li>⚠️ Unnamed passengers may auto-cancel</li>
<li>🎫 Group PNR transitions to ticketed state</li>
</ul>

This is why Yatra/MMT show "flight details visible before 12 hours" — the system holds the group block, but names are pending.




<h2>
 
 
 5. System Architecture Flow
</h2>

Key technical points:

<ul>
<li>Placeholders stored in PNR until replaced</li>
<li>Airlines track via group booking IDs (not individual tickets)</li>
<li>Background jobs handle PNR sync and updates</li>
</ul>




<h2>
 
 
 💻 6. How OTAs Handle This (Developer View)
</h2>

For platforms like Yatra or MakeMyTrip: 


<div class="highlight js-code-highlight">
<pre class="highlight javascript"><code>// Simplified model
const groupBooking = {
 pnr: "ABC123",
 status: "TBA_PENDING",
 passengers: [

</div>



Backend requirements:

<ol>
<li>Handle placeholder data models</li>
<li>Schedule PNR refresh/update jobs</li>
<li>Implement deadline alerts</li>
<li>Validate against duplicate names (see bug below!)</li>
</ol>




<h2>
 
 
 7. CRITICAL BUG I DISCOVERED: Same-Name Collision
</h2>

<h3>
 
 
 The Problem
</h3>

When booking through Yatra's group fare system, I found:

If two passengers have the same name:

<ul>
<li>❌ During web check-in, the system will display both passengers names when the PNR and last name are entered together.</li>
<li>❌ Boarding passes get mixed up</li>
<li>❌ Airport staff can't distinguish passengers</li>
<li>❌ Potential security and check-in issues</li>
</ul>

<h3>
 
 
 Example Scenario
</h3>



<div class="highlight js-code-highlight">
<pre class="highlight javascript"><code>// Booking for two people with same name
passengers: [
 { firstName: "Amit", lastName: "Kumar", seat: "12A" },
 { firstName: "Amit", lastName: "Kumar", seat: "12B" }
]

// What happens in airline system:
// PNR shows: KUMAR/AMIT MR + KUMAR/AMIT MR
// Boarding pass generates wrong seat for one passenger
</code></pre>

</div>



<h3>
 
 
 Why This Happens
</h3>

<ol>
<li>
GDS Name Formatting: Airlines use <code>PNR and LASTNAME</code> combination</li>
<li>
Duplicate Detection: System may treat as duplicate entry</li>
<li>
Seat Assignment Logic: Uses last name as primary key</li>
<li>
Group PNR Merge: Multiple "AMIT KUMAR" entries cause confusion</li>
</ol>

Recommended fixes for OTAs:

<ul>
<li>🔍 Pre-booking validation for duplicate last names</li>
<li>📝 Force middle name or mobile number for duplicates</li>
</ul>




<h2>
 
 
 🔮 8. Future: NDC and Modern APIs
</h2>

IATA's NDC (New Distribution Capability) is modernizing group fares:

<ul>
<li>⚡ Real-time quotes and seat holds</li>
<li>🔄 Easier passenger data updates via REST APIs</li>
<li>📉 Reduced reliance on "TBA" placeholders</li>
<li>🤝 Direct airline-to-OTA connections</li>
</ul>

Though many airlines still support TBA for backward compatibility.

Abstract: On-device fine-tuning of CNNs is essential to withstand domain shift in edge applications such as Human Activity Recognition (HAR), yet full fine-tuning is infeasible under strict memory, compute, and energy budgets. We present LoRA-Edge, a parameter-efficient fine-tuning (PEFT) method that builds on Low-Rank Adaptation (LoRA) with tensor-train assistance. LoRA-Edge (i) applies Tensor-Train Singular Value Decomposition (TT-SVD) to pre-trained convolutional layers, (ii) selectively updates only the output-side core with zero-initialization to keep the auxiliary path inactive at the start, and (iii) fuses the update back into dense kernels, leaving inference cost unchanged. This design preserves convolutional structure and reduces the number of trainable parameters by up to two orders of magnitude compared to full fine-tuning. Across diverse HAR datasets and CNN backbones, LoRA-Edge achieves accuracy within 4.7% of full fine-tuning while updating at most 1.49% of parameters, consistently outperforming prior parameter-efficient baselines under similar budgets. On a Jetson Orin Nano, TT-SVD initialization and selective-core training yield 1.4-3.8x faster convergence to target F1. LoRA-Edge thus makes structure-aligned, parameter-efficient on-device CNN adaptation practical for edge platforms.

تقديم LoRA-Edge يمثل تقدمًا كبيرًا في ضبط الشبكات العصبية التلافيفية (CNN) على الأجهزة، خاصةً للتطبيقات الطرفية مثل التعرف على نشاط الإنسان (HAR). تستخدم هذه الطريقة المبتكرة مساعدة tensor-train لتعزيز كفاءة المعلمات، مما يجعل من الممكن ضبط النماذج ضمن قيود صارمة من الذاكرة والطاقة. هذا التطور مهم لأنه يسمح بتطبيقات ذكاء اصطناعي أكثر فعالية وقابلية للتكيف في السيناريوهات الواقعية، مما يضمن أن الأجهزة يمكن أن تستجيب بشكل أفضل للبيئات المتغيرة.

La introducción de LoRA-Edge marca un avance significativo en el ajuste fino de redes neuronales convolucionales (CNN) en dispositivos, especialmente para aplicaciones en el borde como el reconocimiento de actividad humana (HAR). Este método innovador aprovecha la asistencia de tensor-train para mejorar la eficiencia de los parámetros, lo que hace posible ajustar modelos dentro de estrictas limitaciones de memoria y energía. Este desarrollo es crucial, ya que permite aplicaciones de IA más efectivas y adaptables en escenarios del mundo real, asegurando que los dispositivos puedan responder mejor a entornos cambiantes.

Abstract: This paper presents a deep Koopman-based Economic Model Predictive Control (EMPC) for efficient operation of a laboratory-scale pasteurization unit (PU). The method uses Koopman operator theory to transform the complex, nonlinear system dynamics into a linear representation, enabling the application of convex optimization while representing the complex PU accurately. The deep Koopman model utilizes neural networks to learn the linear dynamics from experimental data, achieving a 45% improvement in open-loop prediction accuracy over conventional N4SID subspace identification. Both analyzed models were employed in the EMPC formulation that includes interpretable economic costs, such as energy consumption, material losses due to inadequate pasteurization, and actuator wear. The feasibility of EMPC is ensured using slack variables. The deep Koopman EMPC and N4SID EMPC are numerically validated on a nonlinear model of multivariable PU under external disturbance. The disturbances include feed pump fail-to-close scenario and the introduction of a cold batch to be pastuerized. These results demonstrate that the deep Koopmand EMPC achieves a 32% reduction in total economic cost compared to the N4SID baseline. This improvement is mainly due to the reductions in material losses and energy consumption. Furthermore, the steady-state operation via Koopman-based EMPC requires 10.2% less electrical energy. The results highlight the practical advantages of integrating deep Koopman representations with economic optimization to achieve resource-efficient control of thermal-intensive plants.
