Method and system for designing formulated products

A system comprising:

• a memory storing instructions;
• one or more Input/Output (I/O) interfaces;
• and
• one or more hardware processors coupled to the memory via the one or more I/O interfaces, wherein the one or more hardware processors are configured by the instructions to:
• receive an intent associated with a desired formulation of a target formulated product, from a user;
• extract one or more functional parameters and one or more performance indicators of the desired formulation, based on the received intent;
• obtain a quantitative value for each functional parameter of the on or more functional parameters, using a conversion look-up table;
• identify one or more key input parameters associated with the one or more functional parameters of the desired formulation, based on the one or more performance indicators, wherein the one or more key input parameters include (i) one or more process parameters, (ii) one or more operating condition parameters, (iii) one or more ingredients, and (iv) one or more parameters associated with the one or more ingredients;
• determine an optimal prediction model for each functional parameter of the one or more functional parameters, to obtain an optimal prediction function for the associated functional parameter;
• and
• determine an optimal solution dataset of the one or more key input parameters associated with the one or more functional parameters for the desired formulation, using an optimization technique, based on an objective function, and one or more constraints comprising (i) the quantitative value for each functional parameter of the one or more functional parameters, (ii) lower bound values and upper bound values of the one or more key input parameters, and (iii) the one or more performance indicators, wherein the objective function is defined as a weighted sum of the optimal prediction function for each functional parameter of the one or more functional parameters.
