The main objective of this approach is to jointly use knowledge-based and data-driven submodels in the modeling process. The integration of knowledge-based submodels is of particular interest, since they are able to provide information not contained in the data. On the other hand, data-driven models can complement the knowledge-based models with respect to input space coverage. For the task of appropriately integrating the different models, a method for partitioning the input space for the given models is introduced. The benefits of this approach are demonstrated for a real-world application. ER -
