This paper introduces a high-performance speed control system based on artificial neural networks(ANN) to estimate unknown parameters of a DC servo motor. The goal of this research is to keep the rotor speed of the DC servo motor to follow an arbitrary selected trajectory. In detail, the aim is to obtain accurate trajectory control of the speed, specially when the motor and load parameters are unknown. By using an artificial neural network, we can acquire unknown nonlinear dynamics of the motor and the load. A trained neural network identifier combined with a reference model can be used to achieve the trajectory control. The performance of the identification and the control algorithm are evaluated through the simulation and experiment of nonlinear dynamics of the motor and the load using a typical DC servo motor model.

The tracking of a reference temperature trajectory in a polymerization batch reactor is a common problem and has critical importance because the quality control of a batch reactor is usually achieved by implementing the trajectory precisely. In this study, only energy balances around a reactor are considered as a design model for control synthesis, and material balances describing concentration variations of involved components are treated as unknown disturbances, of which the effects appear as time-varying parameters in the design model. For the synthesis of a tracking controller, a method combining the input-output linearization of a time-variant system with the parameter estimation is proposed. The parameter estimation method provides parameter estimates such that the estimated outputs asymptotically follow the measured outputs in a specified way. Since other unknown external disturbances or uncertainties can be lumped into existing parameters or considered as another separate parameters, the method is useful in practices exposed to diverse uncertainties and disturbances, and the designed controller becomes robust. And the design procedure and setting of tuning parameters are simple and clear due to the resulted linear design equations. The performances and the effectiveness of the proposed method are demonstrated via simulation studies.

In this paper, we propose a new estimation method based on a weighted linear regression framework to obtain some estimators for unknown parameters in a two-parameter Rayleigh distribution under a progressive Type-II censoring scheme. We also provide unbiased estimators of the location parameter and scale parameter which have a nuisance parameter, and an estimator based on a pivotal quantity which does not depend on the other parameter. The proposed weighted least square estimator (WLSE) of the location parameter is not dependent on the scale parameter. In addition, the WLSE of the scale parameter is not dependent on the location parameter. The results are compared with the maximum likelihood method and pivot-based estimation method. The assessments and comparisons are done using Monte Carlo simulations and real data analysis. The simulation results show that the estimators ${\hat{\mu}}_u({\hat{\theta}}_p)$ and ${\hat{\theta}}_p({\hat{\mu}}_u)$ are superior to the other estimators in terms of the mean squared error (MSE) and bias.

We consider in this paper the following nonlinear regression model $$ (1.1) y_t = f(x_t, \theta_o) + \in_t, t = 1, \ldots, n, $$ where $y_t$ is the tth response, $x_t$ is m-vector imput variable, $\theta_o$ is a p-vector of unknown parameter belong to a parameter space $\Theta, f:R^m \times \Theta \ to R^1$ is a nonlinear known function, and $\in_t$ are independent unobservable random errors with finite second moment.

Consider the problem of estimating the parameter of the model in which an observable random variable is represented by a unknown scalar parameter plus another random variable and the parameter, sample, and decision spaces consist of all integers. We first characterize the class of all admissible estimators and then characterize the class of all finitely admissible estimators. Finally, we show that two classes are identical.

The Extended Kalman Filter(EKF) algorithm estimates variables and unknown parameters simultaneously and is applied to parameter identification of linear and nonlinear mechanical systems. In this paper, an EKF algorithm was developed through a computer simulation and then applied to a sealing test system as a practical example. Comparing with the frequency domain analysis, it was proved to be a useful alternative for the parameter identification.

This study shows a system identification method of a balancing loading device for a stair climbing delivery robot. The balancing loading device is designed as a 2-axes gimbal structure and is interpreted as two independent pendulum structures for simplifying. The loading device's properties such as mass, moment of inertia, and position of the center of gravity are changeable for luggage. The system identification process of the loading device is required, and the controller should be optimized for the system in real-time. In this study, the system identification method is based on least squares method to estimate the unknown parameters of the loading device's dynamic equation. It estimates the unknown parameters by calculating them that minimize the error function between the real system's motion and the estimated system's motion. This study improves the accuracy of parameter estimation using a null space solution. The null space solution can produce the correct parameters by adjusting the parameter's relative sizes. The proposed system identification method is verified by the simulation to determine how close the estimated unknown parameters are to the real parameters.

An integrated robust fault diagnosis and fault accommodation strategy for a class of linear stochastic systems subjected to unknown disturbances is presented under the assumption that only a single fault may occur at a given time. The strategy is based on the fault isolation and estimation using a bank of robust two-stage Kalman filters and introduction of the additive compensation input for cancelling out the fault's effect on the system. Each filter is set up such that the residual is decoupled from unknown disturbances and fault with the influence vector designed in the filter. Simulation results for the simplified longitudinal flight control system with parameter uncertainties, process and sensor noises demonstrate the effectiveness of the present approach.

This study investigates the need of calibrating a nodal network ventilation simulation model (CONTAMW 2.4). For this purpose, the series of ventilation experiments were conducted and then compared to simulation outputs from an uncalibrated simulation model, resulting in a significant difference between two. Hence, an optimization routine was employed to estimate unknown parameters in the simulation model. In the paper, the authors presents 1.3 unknown parameters with the validated simulation model. It was found that the model with estimated unknown parameters predicts the ventilation phenomena accurately.

The initial alignment of inertial platform for navigation system was considered. An adaptive filtering technique is developed for the system with unknown and varying sway disturbance. It is assumed that the random sway motion is the second order ARMA(Auto Regressive Moving Average) model and performed parameter identification for unknown parameters. Designed adaptive filter contain both a Kalman filter and a self-tuning filter. This filtering system can automatically adapt to varying environmental conditions. To verify the robustness of the filtering system, the computer simulation was performed with unknown and varying sway disturbance.
