Least Squares Smoothing of Nonlinear Systems
نویسنده
چکیده
We consider the fixed interval smoothing problem for data from linear or nonlinear models where there is a priori information about the boundary values of the state process. The nonlinearities and boundary values preclude a stochastic approach so instead we use a least squares methodology. The resulting variational equations are a coupled system of ordinary differential equations for the state and costate involving boundary conditions. If the model is linear and the a priori information is only about the initial state then several authors have given methods for solving the resulting equations in two sweeps. If the model is linear but the a priori information is about both the initial and final states then direct methods have been proposed. If the state dimension is large these methods can be very expensive and moreover they don’t readily generalize to nonlinear models. Therefore we present an iterative method for solving both linear and nonlinear problems.

Harmonics Estimation in Power Systems using a Fast Hybrid Algorithm
In this paper a novel hybrid algorithm for harmonics estimation in power systems is proposed. The estimation of the harmonic components is a nonlinear problem due to the nonlinearity of phase of sinusoids in distorted waveforms. Most researchers implemented nonlinear methods to extract the harmonic parameters. However, nonlinear methods for amplitude estimation increase time of convergence. Hen...
متن کاملNonparametric Identification of Nonlinear Oscillating Systems
The problem of system identification from a time series of measurements is solved by using nonparametric additive models. Having only few structural information about the system, a nonparametric approach may be more appropriate than a parametric one for which detailed prior knowledge is needed. Based on nonparametric regression, the functions in the additive models are estimated by a penalized ...
متن کاملSuperlinearly convergent exact penalty projected structured Hessian updating schemes for constrained nonlinear least squares: asymptotic analysis
We present a structured algorithm for solving constrained nonlinear least squares problems, and establish its local two-step Q-superlinear convergence. The approach is based on an adaptive structured scheme due to Mahdavi-Amiri and Bartels of the exact penalty method of Coleman and Conn for nonlinearly constrained optimization problems. The structured adaptation also makes use of the ideas of N...
متن کاملExistence and Uniqueness of Penalized Least Square Estimation for Smoothing Spline Nonlinear Nonparametric Regression Models
where Ni are known nonlinear functionals, g = (g1, · · · , gr) are unknown functions, and 2i iid ∼ N(0, σ) are random errors. Without loss of generality, we assume that r = 2. As in O’Sullivan (1990), we express design points x explicitly in the functional Ni: Ni(g1, g2) = η(g1, g2; xi), where η is a known nonlinear functional. In the following sections, η(g1, g2; x) is sometimes also represent...
متن کاملWavelets and Optimal Nonlinear Function Estimates
We consider the problem of estimating a smooth function from noisy, sampled data. We use orthonormal bases of compactly supported wavelets to constriuct nonlinear function estimates which can significantly outperform evey linear method (kernel, smoothing spline, sieve, ...). Our estimates are simple nonlinear functions of the empirical wavelet coefficients and are asymptotically minimax over ce...
