Multi-innovation stochastic gradient algorithms for dual-rate sampled systems with preload nonlinearity

AbstractSince the stochastic gradient algorithm has a slower convergence rate, this letter presents a multi-innovation stochastic gradient algorithm for a class of dual-rate sampled systems with preload nonlinearity. The basic idea is to transform the dual-rate system model into an identification model which can use dual-rate data by using the polynomial transformation technique. A simulation example is provided to verify the effectiveness of the proposed method

Parameter estimation algorithm for multivariable controlled autoregressive autoregressive moving average systems

This paper investigates parameter estimation problems for multivariable controlled autoregressive autoregressive moving average (M-CARARMA) systems. In order to improve the performance of the standard multivariable generalized extended stochastic gradient (M-GESG) algorithm, we derive a partially coupled generalized extended stochastic gradient algorithm by using the auxiliary model. In particular, we divide the identification model into several subsystems based on the hierarchical identification principle and estimate the parameters using the coupled relationship between these subsystems. The simulation results show that the new algorithm can give more accurate parameter estimates of the M-CARARMA system than the M-GESG algorithm

Decomposition-based recursive least squares identification methods for multivariate pseudo-linear systems using the multi-innovation

© 2018 Informa UK Limited, trading as Taylor & Francis Group. This paper studies the parameter estimation algorithms of multivariate pseudo-linear autoregressive systems. A decomposition-based recursive generalised least squares algorithm is deduced for estimating the system parameters by decomposing the multivariate pseudo-linear autoregressive system into two subsystems. In order to further improve the parameter accuracy, a decomposition based multi-innovation recursive generalised least squares algorithm is developed by means of the multi-innovation theory. The simulation results confirm that these two algorithms are effective

Partially coupled gradient estimation algorithm for multivariable equation-error autoregressive moving average systems using the data filtering technique

System identification provides many convenient and useful methods for engineering modelling. This study targets the parameter identification problems for multivariable equation-error autoregressive moving average systems. To reduce the influence of the coloured noises on the parameter estimation, the data filtering technique is adopted to filter the input and output data, and to transform the original system into a filtered system with white noises. Then the filtered system is decomposed into several subsystems and a filtering-based partially-coupled generalised extended stochastic gradient algorithm is developed via the coupling concept. In contrast to the multivariable generalised extended stochastic gradient algorithm, the proposed algorithm can give more accurate parameter estimates. Finally, the effectiveness of the proposed algorithm is well demonstrated by simulation examples

Recursive search-based identification algorithms for the exponential autoregressive time series model with coloured noise

This study focuses on the recursive parameter estimation problems for the non-linear exponential autoregressive model with moving average noise (the ExpARMA model for short). By means of the gradient search, an extended stochastic gradient (ESG) algorithm is derived. Considering the difficulty of determining the step-size in the ESG algorithm, a numerical approach is proposed to obtain the optimal step-size. In order to improve the parameter estimation accuracy, the authors employ the multi-innovation identification theory to develop a multi-innovation ESG (MI-ESG) algorithm for the ExpARMA model. Introducing a forgetting factor into the MI-ESG algorithm, the parameter estimation accuracy can be further improved. With an appropriate innovation length and forgetting factor, the variant of the MI-ESG algorithm is effective to identify all the unknown parameters of the ExpARMA model. A simulation example is provided to test the proposed algorithms

Gradient-based iterative parameter estimation for bilinear-in-parameter systems using the model decomposition technique

The parameter estimation issues of a block-oriented non-linear system that is bilinear in the parameters are studied, i.e. the bilinear-in-parameter system. Using the model decomposition technique, the bilinear-in-parameter model is decomposed into two fictitious submodels: one containing the unknown parameters in the non-linear block and the other containing the unknown parameters in the linear dynamic one and the noise model. Then a gradient-based iterative algorithm is proposed to estimate all the unknown parameters by formulating and minimising two criterion functions. The stochastic gradient algorithms are provided for comparison. The simulation results indicate that the proposed iterative algorithm can give higher parameter estimation accuracy than the stochastic gradient algorithms

Two Identification Methods for Dual-Rate Sampled-Data Nonlinear Output-Error Systems

This paper presents two methods for dual-rate sampled-data nonlinear output-error systems. One method is the missing output estimation based stochastic gradient identification algorithm and the other method is the auxiliary model based stochastic gradient identification algorithm. Different from the polynomial transformation based identification methods, the two methods in this paper can estimate the unknown parameters directly. A numerical example is provided to confirm the effectiveness of the proposed methods

Parameter and State Estimator for State Space Models

This paper proposes a parameter and state estimator for canonical state space systems from measured input-output data. The key is to solve the system state from the state equation and to substitute it into the output equation, eliminating the state variables, and the resulting equation contains only the system inputs and outputs, and to derive a least squares parameter identification algorithm. Furthermore, the system states are computed from the estimated parameters and the input-output data. Convergence analysis using the martingale convergence theorem indicates that the parameter estimates converge to their true values. Finally, an illustrative example is provided to show that the proposed algorithm is effective

Performance analysis of the generalised projection identification for time-varying systems

© The Institution of Engineering and Technology 2016. The least mean square methods include two typical parameter estimation algorithms, which are the projection algorithm and the stochastic gradient algorithm, the former is sensitive to noise and the latter is not capable of tracking the timevarying parameters. On the basis of these two typical algorithms, this study presents a generalised projection identification algorithm (or a finite data window stochastic gradient identification algorithm) for time-varying systems and studies its convergence by using the stochastic process theory. The analysis indicates that the generalised projection algorithm can track the time-varying parameters and requires less computational effort compared with the forgetting factor recursive least squares algorithm. The way of choosing the data window length is stated so that the minimum parameter estimation error upper bound can be obtained. The numerical examples are provided
