neural networks are applicable in identification systems from input-output data. in this report, we analyze thehammerstein-wiener models and identify them. thehammerstein-wiener systems are the simplest type of block orientednonlinear systems where the linear dynamic block issandwiched in between two static nonlinear blocks, whichappear in many engineering applications; the aim of nonlinearsyst...

one of the challenges in non-destructive testing schemes using the ultrasound pulse-echo technique is to identify those defects whose sizes are less than or equal to the detection resolution that is dependent on the width of the ultrasound pulse. existing methods also require a reference specimen of the same defective material, which may not be available in some cases. we present a new method f...

We give a general overview of the state-of-the-art in subspace system identification methods. We have restricted ourselves to the most important ideas and developments since the methods appeared in the late eighties. First, the basis of linear subspace identification are summarized. Different algorithms one finds in literature (Such as N4SID, MOESP, CVA) are discussed and put into a unifyin...

in this study, several data-driven techniques including system identification, adaptive neuro-fuzzy inference system (anfis), artificial neural network (ann) and wavelet-artificial neural network (wavelet-ann) models were applied to model rainfall-runoff (rr) relationship. for this purpose, the daily stream flow time series of hydrometric station of hajighoshan on gorgan river and the daily rai...

the purpose of this study was to estimate the torque from high‑density surface electromyography signals of biceps brachii, brachioradialis, and the medial and lateral heads of triceps brachii muscles during moderate‑to‑high isometric elbow flexion‑extension. the elbow torque was estimated in two following steps: first, surface electromyography (emg) amplitudes were estimated using principal com...

due to the fact that the error surface of adaptive infinite impulse response (iir) systems is generally nonlinear and multimodal, the conventional derivative based techniques fail when used in adaptive identification of such systems. in this case, global optimization techniques are required in order to avoid the local minima. harmony search (hs), a musical inspired metaheuristic, is a recently ...

â  abstract: in this paper, artificial neural network (ann) was used for modeling the nonlinear structure of a debutanizer column in a refinery gas process plant. the actual input-output data of the system were measured in order to be used for system identification based on root mean square error (rmse) minimization approach. it was shown that the designed recurrent neural network is able to pr...

in this paper, we describe our implementation of an interior point algorithm for large scale systems. first we identify system with small and medium methods convex optimization, then we use interior point method for identification. finally we offer an interior point method that uses nonlinear cost function and see that we achieve a good trade-off between error and cpu time. actually, in this pa...
