METHODS AND SYSTEMS FOR PREDICTIVE ANALYSIS AND/OR PROCESS CONTROL

A system for predictive analysis and/or process control, preferably including one or more communication and/or computing systems, and optionally including one or more entities and/or sensors. A method for predictive analysis and/or machine operation, preferably including receiving entity data and determining one or more latent features, and optionally including determining one or more response reconstructions, determining a processed representation of the entity data, determining entity information, and/or acting based on entity information. In some embodiments, the method can additionally or alternatively include: determining segments, identifying one or more state change event occurrences, determining an event data subset based on the state change event occurrences, generating a response reconstruction using the event data subset, selecting a physical simulation, selecting one or more simulation hyperparameters for the physical simulation, running the physical simulation, and/or extracting one or more latent features from the physical simulation.
