MACHINE CONTROLLER AND METHODS FOR CONFIGURING AND USING THE MACHINE CONTROLLER

A machine controller, geometry data and measured physical data of a machine is provided. The geometry data and the physical data are input to a machine learning module and to a simulation module of the machine controller. By the input data, the simulation module generates first values of a first physical property of a component of the machine on a discretized grid. Furthermore, an evaluator is provided for evaluating a physical compatibility of the first values with second values of a second physical property of the component, and for generating a residual quantifying the compatibility. The evaluator evaluates the compatibility of the first values with output data of the machine learning module and generates a resulting residual. Moreover, the machine learning module is trained to minimize the resulting residual, thus configuring the machine controller for controlling the machine by the output data of the trained machine learning module.
