Concepts
Model object types include numeric models, for representing systems with fixed coefficients, and generalized models for systems with tunable or uncertain coefficients.
About Identified Linear Models
System Identification Toolbox software uses objects to represent a variety of linear and nonlinear model structures.
A linear model is often sufficient to accurately describe the system dynamics and, in most cases, you should first try to fit linear models.
Linear Model Structures
Black-box modeling is useful when your primary interest is in fitting the data regardless of a particular mathematical structure of the model.
Recommended Model Estimation Sequence
Recommended model estimation sequence, from the simplest to the more complex model structures.
Imposing Constraints on Model Parameter Values
All identified linear (IDLTI) models, except idfrd, contain a Structure property.
Determining Model Order and Delay
Estimation requires you to specify the model order and delay. Many times, these values are not known.
Effect of Input Intersample Behavior on Continuous-Time Models
The intersample behavior of the input signals influences the estimation, simulation and prediction of continuous-time models.
Modeling Multiple-Output Systems
Supported models for multiple-output systems.
Loss Function and Model Quality Metrics
Configure the loss function that is minimized during parameter estimation. After estimation, use model quality metrics to assess the quality of identified models.
Regularized Estimates of Model Parameters
Regularization is the technique for specifying constraints on the flexibility of a model, thereby reducing uncertainty in the estimated parameter values.
The estimation report contains information about the results and options used for a model estimation.
