On polynomial explicit partial estimator design for nonlinear systems with parametric uncertainties

Abstract

This paper investigates the idea of designing data-driven partial estimators for nonlinear systems showing parametric uncertainties using sparse multivariate polynomial relationships. A general framework is first presented and then validated on two illustrative examples with comparison to different possible Machine/Deep-Learning based alternatives. The results suggests the superiority of the proposed sparse identification scheme, at least when the learning data is small.
