4. Process Modeling 4.5. Use and Interpretation of Process Models
Overview of Section 4.5	This section covers the interpretation and use of the models developed from the collection and analysis of data using the procedures discussed in Section 4.3 and Section 4.4. Two of the main uses of such models, prediction and calibration are discussed in detail. Optimization, another important use of this type of model, is primarily discussed in Chapter 5: Process Improvement.
Contents of Section 4.5	What types of predictions can I make using the model? How do I predict the average response for a particular set of predictor variable values? How can I estimate the value and uncertainty of a single observable response? How can I use my process model for calibration? Single Use Calibration Intervals How can I optimize my process using the process model?
