Parameter Estimation of Sigmoid Superpositions: Dynamical System Approach
Superposition of sigmoid function over a finite time interval is shown to be
equivalent to the linear combination of the solutions of a linearly
parameterized system of logistic differential equations. Due to the linearity
with respect to the parameters of the system, it is possible to design an
effective procedure for parameter adjustment. Stability properties of this
procedure are analyzed. Strategies shown in earlier studies to facilitate
learning such as randomization of a learning sequence and adding specially
designed disturbances during the learning phase are requirements for
guaranteeing convergence in the learning scheme proposed.Comment: 30 pages, 7 figure
Adaptive observers for nonlinearly parameterized systems subjected to parametric constraints
We consider the problem of adaptive observer design in the settings when the
system is allowed to be nonlinear in the parameters, and furthermore they are
to satisfy additional feasibility constraints. A solution to the problem is
proposed that is based on the idea of universal observers and non-uniform
small-gain theorem. The procedure is illustrated with an example.Comment: 19th IFAC World Congress on Automatic Control, 10869-10874, South
