Simultaneous-Perturbation-Stochastic-Approximation Algorithm for Parachute Parameter Estimation
نویسندگان
چکیده
This paper presents an algorithm to estimate unknown parameters of parachute models from flight-test data. The algorithm is based on the simultaneous-perturbation-stochastic-approximation method to minimize the prediction error (difference between model output and test data). The algorithm is simple to code and requires only the model output. Analytical gradients are not necessary. The algorithm is used to estimate aerodynamic and apparent mass coefficients for an existing parachute model.

A Neural Stochastic Optimization Framework for Oil Parameter Estimation
The main objective of the present work is to propose and evaluate a neural stochastic optimization framework for reservoir parameter estimation, for which a history matching procedure is implemented by combining three independent sources of spatial and temporal information: production data, time-lapse seismic and sensor information. In order to efficiently perform large-scale parameter estimati...

متن کاملAn Overview of the Simultaneous Perturbation Method for Efficient Optimization
ultivariate stochastic optimization plays a major role in the analysis and control of many engineering systems. In almost all real-world optimization problems, it is necessary to use a mathematical algorithm that iteratively seeks out the solution because an analytical (closed-form) solution is rarely available. In this spirit, the “simultaneous perturbation stochastic approximation (SPSA)” met...

متن کاملOPTIMISATION OF PARTICLE FILTERS USING SIMULTANEOUS PERTURBATION STOCHASTIC APPROXIMATION tBao
This paper addresses the optimisation of particle filtering methods aka Sequential Monte Carlo (SMC) methods using stochastic approximation. First, the SMC algorithm is parameterised smoothly by a parameter. Second, optimisation of an average cost function is performed using Simultaneous Perturbation Stochastic Approximation (SPSA). Simulations demonstrate the efficiency of our algorithm.
