System Identification

In this book, not only are mathematical abstractions discussed in a lucid manner, but also several practical applications are given particularly for system identification, description and then efficient controls.

The book covers the most common and important approaches for the identification of nonlinear static and dynamic systems. Additionally, it provides the reader with the necessary background on optimization techniques making the book self-contained. The emphasis is put on modern methods based on neural networks and fuzzy systems without neglecting the classical approaches. The entire book is written from an engineering point-of-view, focusing on the intuitive understanding of the basic relationships. This is supported by many illustrative figures. Advanced mathematics is avoided. Thus, the book is suitable for last year undergraduate and graduate courses as well as research and development engineers in industries.

This brief presents characterizations of identification errors under a probabilistic framework when output sensors are binary, quantized, or regular. By considering both space complexity in terms of signal quantization and time complexity with respect to data window sizes, this study provides a new perspective to understand the fundamental relationship between probabilistic errors and resources, which may represent data sizes in computer usage, computational complexity in algorithms, sample sizes in statistical analysis and channel bandwidths in communications.
