Aspects on the Interpretation of Disturbances in System Identification

Authors:

Liang-Liang Xie, Lennart Ljung,

Volume: 1, Page 668 Paper number 3601

Abstract:

The paper contains a discussion about what results about the quality of an estimated model can be achieved, if no probabilistic assumptions are introduced. Several technical results that illustrate possibilities and difficulties are also given.

Hierarchical and Integrated Algorithms: Comparison and Applications in Motion Estimation and Recognition

Authors:

Kun Huang, Panganamala R. Kumar,

Volume: 1, Page 674 Paper number 3602

Abstract:

In this paper, we study several issues in motion estimation and object recognition. First, we compare the performance of two hierarchical and integrated methods in motion estimation. Second, we address the use of a simulated annealing algorithm for object recognition. This algorithm is then adapted for vehicle identification.

Persistence Of Excitation Properties For The Identification Of Time-Varying Systems

Authors:

Sergio Bittanti, Marco C. Campi, Lei Guo,

Volume: 1, Page 680 Paper number 3603

Abstract:

The identification of time varying parameters requires that a certain level of information is present in the data through time. Only in this case it is in fact possible to track the parameter variability and form a reliable estimate. This consideration has led to the introduction in the literature of a variety of persistence of excitation notions ranging from the deterministic ones (in the 80's) to more sophisticated stochastic definitions proposed in the last decade. This paper presents an overview of the existing stochastic excitation notions and discuss important issues like their necessity for tracking and their applicability in different contexts. It appears that the present state of the art is not completely satisfying in terms of completeness and generality of the available results.

The Role of Parametrizations in Identification of Linear Systems

Authors:

Manfred Deistler,

Volume: 1, Page 685 Paper number 3604

Abstract:

In identification the problem is to attach to every string of data of the form (equation deleted) , a system from an a priori specified model class. Usually the model class is described by a space of free parameters. In the fully automatized case, the system (or its free parameters) is attached to the data by a function, (equation deleted) say. If the data are assumed to be generated by an underlying stochastic process (called the data generating process, DGP) and if is measurable, then (equation deleted) is an estimator and the identification problem is an estimation problem. The special features of system identification arise from the rather complicated relation between external behavior, internal system parameters and free parameters for a given model class.

Controller Validation For Stability And Performance Based On A Frequency Domain Uncertainty Region Obtained By Stochastic Embedding

Authors:

Xavier Bombois, Michel Gevers, Gérard Scorletti,

Volume: 1, Page 689 Paper number 3605

Abstract:

This paper presents a robustness analysis for an uncertainty set deduced from stochastic embedding techniques and made up of ellipsoids at each frequency in the Nyquist plane. Our robustness analysis focuses on the validation of a controller both for robust stability and for robust performance, over all systems in such frequency domain uncertainty region. Our validation procedure for stability ensures that the controller stabilizes all systems in this nonstandard uncertainty set. Our validation procedure for performance computes the worst case performance over all closed loop systems made up of the controller and all plants in the frequency domain uncertainty region.

Stabilizability, Uncertainty and the Choice of Sampling Rate

Authors:

Feng Xue, Lei Guo,

Volume: 1, Page 695 Paper number 3606

Abstract:

We study in this paper a class of first-order continuous-time control systems with unknown nonlinear structure and with prescribed sampling rate h, aiming at understanding how stabilizability depends quantitatively upon the choice of the sampling rate and the "size" of the uncertainty. We show that if the unknown nonlinear function has a linear growth rate with its "slope" (denoted by L) being a measure of the"size" of uncertainty, then there exists a constant b (approx. 7.53) such that the system is not globally stabilizable by sampled-data feedback whenever Lh > b. Furthermore, if the unknown nonlinear function has a growth rate faster than linear, and if the system is disturbed by noises modeled as the standard Brownian motion, then an example is given, showing that the corresponding sampled-data system is not stabilizable in general, no matter how fast the sampling rate is.

Closed-Loop Output Error Identification Of Nonlinear Plants Using Kernel Representations

Authors:

Franky De Bruyne, Brian D.O. Anderson, Ioan Dore Landau,

Volume: 1, Page 700 Paper number 3607

Abstract:

In this paper, we extend a family of algorithms for the identification of continuous time nonlinear plants operating in closed-loop. The main novelty is that the identification of unstable plants is covered in its generality.
