Fundamental Studies in System Identification

点击翻译按钮获取中文摘要

To operate a dynamic system such as a chemical process plant or an economy one needs two things; the equations describing the system; a way of regulating the system to provide desired outcomes. System identification provides the first; control engineering design provides the second. This proposal addresses three important problems in system identification and control. Firstly since the equations can never be known precisely we aim to determine what is the best one can do? Secondly to provide then tight error bounds for the control design; thirdly to develop new methods for some hitherto unresolved problems in system identification.
