AM 273System Identification for Aerial Robotic Systems

5 creditsGraduateStudent Option

Introduces data-driven system identification methods for dynamical modeling of atmospheric, ocean, and robotic vehicles from experimental data. Topics include experiment design; model structure selection; parameter and state estimation; regression-based and maximum-likelihood approaches; and data analysis in both time and frequency domains. Emphasis is placed on integrating physical modeling with data-driven techniques and on assessing model validity and uncertainty.
