Identification of Nonlinear Parameter-Dependent Common-Structured models to accommodate varying experimental conditions and design parameter properties

摘要

This study considers the identification problem for a class of nonlinear parameter-varying systems associated with the following scenario: the system behaviour depends on some specifically prescribed parameter properties, which are adjustable. To understand the effect of the varying parameters, several different experiments, corresponding to different parameter properties, are carried out and different data sets are collected. The objective is to find, from the available data sets, a common parameter-dependent model structure that best fits the adjustable parameter properties for the underlying system. An efficient common model structure selection (CMSS) algorithm, called the extended forward orthogonal regression (EFOR) algorithm, is proposed to select such a common model structure. Several examples are presented to illustrate the application and the effectiveness of the new identification approach.
