Block-oriented Nonlinear System Identification Using Semidenite Programming
Identification of block-oriented nonlinear systems has been an active research area for the last several decades. A block-oriented nonlinear system represents a nonlinear dynamical system as a combination of linear dynamic systems and static nonlinear blocks. In block-oriented nonlinear systems, each block (linear dynamic systems and static nonlinearity) can be connected in many different ways (series, parallel, feedback) and this flexibility provides the block-oriented modeling approach with an ability to capture a large class of nonlinear systems. However, intermediate signals in such block-oriented systems are not measurable and the inaccessibility of such measurements is the main difficulty in block-oriented nonlinear system identification. Recently a system identification method using rank minimization has been introduced for linear system identification. Finding the simplest model within a feasible model set restricted by convex constraints can often be formulated as a rank minimization problem. In this research, the rank minimization approach is extended to block-oriented nonlinear system identification. The system parameter estimation problem is formulated as a rank minimization problem or the combination of prediction error and rank minimization problems by constraining a finite dimensional time dependency of a linear dynamic system and by using the monotonicity of static nonlinearity. This allows us to reconstruct non-measurable intermediate signals and once the intermediate signals have been reconstructed, the identification of each block can be solved with the standard Prediction Error method or Least Squares method. The research work presented in this dissertation proposes a new approach for block-oriented system identification by tackling the inaccessibility of measurement of intermediate signals in block-oriented nonlinear systems via rank minimization. Since the rank minimization problem is non-convex, the rank minimization problem is relaxed to a semidefinite programming problem by minimizing the nuclear norm instead of the rank. The research contributes to advances in block-oriented nonlinear system identification.

Adaptive Learning Methods for Nonlinear System Modeling presents some of the recent advances on adaptive algorithms and machine learning methods designed for nonlinear system modeling and identification. Real-life problems always entail a certain degree of nonlinearity, which makes linear models a non-optimal choice. This book mainly focuses on those methodologies for nonlinear modeling that involve any adaptive learning approaches to process data coming from an unknown nonlinear system. By learning from available data, such methods aim at estimating the nonlinearity introduced by the unknown system. In particular, the methods presented in this book are based on online learning approaches, which process the data example-by-example and allow to model even complex nonlinearities, e.g., showing time-varying and dynamic behaviors. Possible fields of applications of such algorithms includes distributed sensor networks, wireless communications, channel identification, predictive maintenance, wind prediction, network security, vehicular networks, active noise control, information forensics and security, tracking control in mobile robots, power systems, and nonlinear modeling in big data, among many others. This book serves as a crucial resource for researchers, PhD and post-graduate students working in the areas of machine learning, signal processing, adaptive filtering, nonlinear control, system identification, cooperative systems, computational intelligence. This book may be also of interest to the industry market and practitioners working with a wide variety of nonlinear systems. - Presents the key trends and future perspectives in the field of nonlinear signal processing and adaptive learning. - Introduces novel solutions and improvements over the state-of-the-art methods in the very exciting area of online and adaptive nonlinear identification. - Helps readers understand important methods that are effective in nonlinear system modelling, suggesting the right methodology to address particular issues.
Data-Driven Methods for Dynamic Systems
As experimental data sets have grown and computational power has increased, new tools have been developed that have the power to model new systems and fundamentally alter how current systems are analyzed. This book brings together modern computational tools to provide an accurate understanding of dynamic data. The techniques build on pencil-and-paper mathematical techniques that go back decades and sometimes even centuries. The result is an introduction to state-of-the-art methods that complement, rather than replace, traditional analysis of time-dependent systems. Data-Driven Methods for Dynamic Systems provides readers with methods not found in other texts as well as novel ones developed just for this book; an example-driven presentation that provides background material and descriptions of methods without getting bogged down in technicalities; and examples that demonstrate the applicability of a method and introduce the features and drawbacks of their application. The online supplementary material includes a code repository that can be used to reproduce every example and that can be repurposed to fit a variety of applications not found in the book. This book is intended as an introduction to the field of data-driven methods for graduate students. It will also be of interest to researchers who want to familiarize themselves with the discipline. It can be used in courses on dynamical systems, differential equations, and data science.
