On the value of information in system identification-Bounded noise case

Abstract: Assuming instantaneous bounds on the noise, system parameter identification is formulated as membership set estimation problem. Sequential algorithms are constructed to estimate the membership sets of the parameters which are consistent with the measurements and the noise constraints. The important new feature of the proposed algorithms is their ability to ignore redundant data. The efficient data extraction property of the new algorithms is achieved with small computational effort and with improved performance when compared to the least square algorithm. The convergence properties and the notion of identifiability in the set theoretic context are also studied.

Output Reachable Set Estimation and Verification for Multilayer Neural Networks

Abstract: In this brief, the output reachable estimation and safety verification problems for multilayer perceptron (MLP) neural networks are addressed. First, a conception called maximum sensitivity is introduced, and for a class of MLPs whose activation functions are monotonic functions, the maximum sensitivity can be computed via solving convex optimization problems. Then, using a simulation-based method, the output reachable set estimation problem for neural networks is formulated into a chain of optimization problems. Finally, an automated safety verification is developed based on the output reachable set estimation result. An application to the safety verification for a robotic arm model with two joints is presented to show the effectiveness of the proposed approaches.

Set-membership identification of systems with parametric and nonparametric uncertainty

Abstract: A method for parameter set estimation in which the system model is assumed to contain both parametric and nonparametric uncertainty is presented. In the disturbance-free case, the parameter set estimate is guaranteed to contain the parameter set of the true plant. In the presence of stochastic disturbances, the parameter set estimate obtained from finite data records is shown to have the property that it contains the true-plant parameter set with probability one as the data length tends to infinity. >

Technical Communique: Nonlinear bounded-error state estimation of continuous-time systems

Abstract: This paper presents a first study on the application of interval analysis and consistency techniques to state estimation of continuous-time systems described by nonlinear ordinary differential equations. The approach is presented in a bounded-error context and the resulting methodology is illustrated by an example.
