In recent years, several new methods for the identification of approximate models of an open loop plant on the basis of closed loop d a b have been presented. In this paper, we extend such a method to the nonlinear case: we consider that both the plant and the controller can be nonlinear. The method that is considered is a two-step procedure, i.e. the sensitivity function of the dosed loop syst...

2.1 Regression Problem Statement Given A ∈ Rn×d and b ∈ Rn, Find x ∈ Rd minimizing ‖Ax− b‖2. (n d) A is given data composed of n rows of size d which indicates the d different features. And for those n items, vector b is composed of n outcomes corresponding to each 1× d feature vector. By finding solution x ∈ minimizing ‖Ax− b‖2, we can find an approximate linear mapping between A and b via x: ...
