Non-linear estimation is easy
Non-linear state estimation and some related topics, like parametric
estimation, fault diagnosis, and perturbation attenuation, are tackled here via
a new methodology in numerical differentiation. The corresponding basic system
theoretic definitions and properties are presented within the framework of
differential algebra, which permits to handle system variables and their
derivatives of any order. Several academic examples and their computer
simulations, with on-line estimations, are illustrating our viewpoint
A Tractable Fault Detection and Isolation Approach for Nonlinear Systems with Probabilistic Performance
This article presents a novel perspective along with a scalable methodology
to design a fault detection and isolation (FDI) filter for high dimensional
nonlinear systems. Previous approaches on FDI problems are either confined to
linear systems or they are only applicable to low dimensional dynamics with
specific structures. In contrast, shifting attention from the system dynamics
to the disturbance inputs, we propose a relaxed design perspective to train a
linear residual generator given some statistical information about the
disturbance patterns. That is, we propose an optimization-based approach to
robustify the filter with respect to finitely many signatures of the
nonlinearity. We then invoke recent results in randomized optimization to
provide theoretical guarantees for the performance of the proposed filer.
Finally, motivated by a cyber-physical attack emanating from the
vulnerabilities introduced by the interaction between IT infrastructure and
power system, we deploy the developed theoretical results to detect such an
intrusion before the functionality of the power system is disrupted

The problem addressed is that of designing a full-order observer that guarantees the exponential stability of the error dynamic system. An effective algebraic matrix equation approach is developed to solve this problem. In particular, both the observer analysis and design problems are investigated. By using the singular value decomposition technique and the generalized inverse theory, sufficient conditions for a neutral-type delay system to be exponentially stable are first established. Then, an explicit expression of the desired observers is derived in terms of some free parameters. Furthermore, an illustrative example is used to demonstrate the validity of the proposed design procedur
Dynamic state reconciliation and model-based fault detection for chemical processes
In this paper, we present a method for the fault detection based on the residual generation. The main idea is to reconstruct the outputs of the system from the measurements using the extended Kalman filter. The estimations are compared to the values of the reference model and so, deviations are interpreted as possible faults. The reference model is simulated by the dynamic hybrid simulator, PrODHyS. The use of this method is illustrated through an application in the field of chemical processe
On algebraic time-derivative estimation and deadbeat state reconstruction
This note places into perspective the so-called algebraic time-derivative
estimation method recently introduced by Fliess and co-authors with standard
results from linear state-space theory for control systems. In particular, it
is shown that the algebraic method can in a sense be seen as a special case of
deadbeat state estimation based on the reconstructibility Gramian of the
considered system.Comment: Maple-supplements available at

A review of convex approaches for control, observation and safety of linear parameter varying and Takagi-Sugeno systems
This paper provides a review about the concept of convex systems based on Takagi-Sugeno, linear parameter varying (LPV) and quasi-LPV modeling. These paradigms are capable of hiding the nonlinearities by means of an equivalent description which uses a set of linear models interpolated by appropriately defined weighing functions. Convex systems have become very popular since they allow applying extended linear techniques based on linear matrix inequalities (LMIs) to complex nonlinear systems. This survey aims at providing the reader with a significant overview of the existing LMI-based techniques for convex systems in the fields of control, observation and safety. Firstly, a detailed review of stability, feedback, tracking and model predictive control (MPC) convex controllers is considered. Secondly, the problem of state estimation is addressed through the design of proportional, proportional-integral, unknown input and descriptor observers. Finally, safety of convex systems is discussed by describing popular techniques for fault diagnosis and fault tolerant control (FTC).Peer ReviewedPostprint (published version
Integration of a failure monitoring within a hybrid dynamic simulation environment
The complexity and the size of the industrial chemical processes induce the monitoring of a growing number of process variables. Their knowledge is generally based on the measurements of system variables and on the physico-chemical models of the process. Nevertheless this information is imprecise because of process and measurement noise. So the research ways aim at developing new and more powerful techniques for the detection of process fault. In this work, we present a method for the fault detection based on the comparison between the real system and the reference model evolution generated by the extended Kalman filter. The reference model is simulated by the dynamic hybrid simulator, PrODHyS. It is a general object-oriented environment which provides common and reusable components designed for the development and the management of dynamic simulation of industrial systems. The use of this method is illustrated through a didactic example relating to the field of Chemical Process System Engineering
