Course Objective

The objective is to build mathematical models of systems from observations of their
behavior. The topics include time series, state-space, and input-output models; model
structures, parametrization, and identifiability; non-parametric methods; prediction
error methods for parameter estimation, convergence, consistency, and asymptotic
distribution; relations to maximum likelihood estimation; recursive estimation;
relation to Kalman filters; structure determination; order estimation; Akaike
criterion; bounded but unknown noise model; and robustness and practical issues.

Learning Outcomes of the Course Unit

1   To be able to determine practical requirements of a system identification scheme
2   To be able to use parametric and none parametric system identification techniques
3   To be able to assess the performance of a identified system models
