Modelling and inverting complex-valued Wiener systems
We develop a complex-valued (CV) B-spline neural network approach for efficient identification and inversion of CV Wiener systems. The CV nonlinear static function in the Wiener system is represented using the tensor product of two univariate B-spline neural networks. With the aid of a least squares parameter initialisation, the Gauss-Newton algorithm effectively estimates the model parameters that include the CV linear dynamic model coefficients and B-spline neural network weights. The identification algorithm naturally incorporates the efficient De Boor algorithm with both the B-spline curve and first order derivative recursions. An accurate inverse of the CV Wiener system is then obtained, in which the inverse of the CV nonlinear static function of the Wiener system is calculated efficiently using the Gaussian-Newton algorithm based on the estimated B-spline neural network model, with the aid of the De Boor recursions. The effectiveness of our approach for identification and inversion of CV Wiener systems is demonstrated using the application of digital predistorter design for high power amplifiers with memor
Modeling of complex-valued Wiener systems using B-spline neural network
In this brief, a new complex-valued B-spline neural network is introduced in order to model the complex-valued Wiener system using observational input/output data. The complex-valued nonlinear static function in the Wiener system is represented using the tensor product from two univariate Bspline neural networks, using the real and imaginary parts of the system input. Following the use of a simple least squares parameter initialization scheme, the Gauss–Newton algorithm is applied for the parameter estimation, which incorporates the De Boor algorithm, including both the B-spline curve and the first-order derivatives recursion. Numerical examples, including a nonlinear high-power amplifier model in communication systems, are used to demonstrate the efficacy of the proposed approaches
Application of Wilcoxon Norm for increased Outlier Insensitivity in Function Approximation Problems
In system theory, characterization and identification are fundamental problems. When the plant behavior is completely unknown, it may be characterized using certain model and then, its identification may be carried out with some artificial neural networks(ANN) (like multilayer perceptron(MLP) or functional link artificial neural network(FLANN) ) or Radial Basis Functions(RBF) using some learning rules such as the back propagation (BP) algorithm. They offer flexibility, adaptability and versatility, for the use of a variety of approaches to meet a specific goal, depending upon the circumstances and the requirements of the design specifications. The first aim of the present thesis is to provide a framework for the systematic design of adaptation laws for nonlinear system identification and channel equalization. While constructing an artificial neural network or a radial basis function neural network, the designer is often faced with the problem of choosing a network of the right size for the task. Using a smaller neural network decreases the cost of computation and increases generalization ability. However, a network which is too small may never solve the problem, while a larger network might be able to. Transmission bandwidth being one of the most precious resources in digital communication, Communication channels are usually modeled as band-limited linear finite impulse response (FIR) filters with low pass frequency response
A unified wavelet-based modelling framework for non-linear system identification: the WANARX model structure
A new unified modelling framework based on the superposition of additive submodels, functional components, and
wavelet decompositions is proposed for non-linear system identification. A non-linear model, which is often represented
using a multivariate non-linear function, is initially decomposed into a number of functional components via the wellknown
analysis of variance (ANOVA) expression, which can be viewed as a special form of the NARX (non-linear
autoregressive with exogenous inputs) model for representing dynamic input–output systems. By expanding each functional
component using wavelet decompositions including the regular lattice frame decomposition, wavelet series and
multiresolution wavelet decompositions, the multivariate non-linear model can then be converted into a linear-in-theparameters
problem, which can be solved using least-squares type methods. An efficient model structure determination
approach based upon a forward orthogonal least squares (OLS) algorithm, which involves a stepwise orthogonalization
of the regressors and a forward selection of the relevant model terms based on the error reduction ratio (ERR), is
employed to solve the linear-in-the-parameters problem in the present study. The new modelling structure is referred to
as a wavelet-based ANOVA decomposition of the NARX model or simply WANARX model, and can be applied to
represent high-order and high dimensional non-linear systems
Identification of Nonlinear Systems From the Knowledge Around Different Operating Conditions: A Feed-Forward Multi-Layer ANN Based Approach
The paper investigates nonlinear system identification using system output
data at various linearized operating points. A feed-forward multi-layer
Artificial Neural Network (ANN) based approach is used for this purpose and
tested for two target applications i.e. nuclear reactor power level monitoring
and an AC servo position control system. Various configurations of ANN using
different activation functions, number of hidden layers and neurons in each
layer are trained and tested to find out the best configuration. The training
is carried out multiple times to check for consistency and the mean and
standard deviation of the root mean square errors (RMSE) are reported for each
configuration.Comment: "6 pages, 9 figures; The Second IEEE International Conference on

Identification of nonlinear time-varying systems using an online sliding-window and common model structure selection (CMSS) approach with applications to EEG
The identification of nonlinear time-varying systems using linear-in-the-parameter models is investigated. A new efficient Common Model Structure Selection (CMSS)
algorithm is proposed to select a common model structure. The main idea and key procedure is: First, generate K 1 data sets (the first K data sets are used for training, and theK 1 th one is used for testing) using an online sliding window method; then detect significant model terms to form a common model structure which fits over all the K
training data sets using the new proposed CMSS approach. Finally, estimate and refine the time-varying parameters for the identified common-structured model using a Recursive Least Squares (RLS) parameter estimation method. The new method can effectively detect and adaptively track the transient variation of nonstationary signals. Two examples are presented to illustrate the effectiveness of the new approach including an application to an EEG data set
