Control apparatus, control method, and non-transitory computer readable medium

A control method that is executed by a computer system comprising one or more computers, the control method comprising:

• by the computer system,
• acquiring an operation model output which is output according to inputting state data indicating a state of a facility, to an operation model trained by machine learning to output an action in accordance with the state of the facility by using simulation data from a simulator that simulates an operation in the facility;
• acquiring an index which is calculated by using real data from the facility and which is for monitoring a difference between a behavior of the simulator and an actual operation in the facility;
• correcting the operation model output based on the index;
• and
• outputting a manipulated variable for controlling a control target provided in the facility, according to the operation model output that is corrected.

A non-transitory computer readable medium having a control program recorded thereon, when executed by a computer system comprising one or more computers, the control program causing the computer system to perform a control method comprising:

• acquiring an operation model output which is output according to inputting state data indicating a state of a facility, to an operation model trained by machine learning to output an action in accordance with the state of the facility by using simulation data from a simulator that simulates an operation in the facility;
• acquiring an index which is calculated by using real data from the facility and which is for monitoring a difference between a behavior of the simulator and an actual operation in the facility;
• correcting the operation model output based on the index;
• and
• outputting a manipulated variable for controlling a control target provided in the facility, according to the operation model output that is corrected.
