  1. 1. Estimation of Nonlinear Dynamic Systems : Theory and Applications

    Author : Thomas B. Schön; Fredrik Gustafsson; Simon Godsill; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Nonlinear estimation; system identification; Kalman filter; particle filter; marginalized particle filter; expectation maximization; automotive applications; Automatic control; Reglerteknik;

    Abstract : This thesis deals with estimation of states and parameters in nonlinear and non-Gaussian dynamic systems. Sequential Monte Carlo methods are mainly used to this end. These methods rely on models of the underlying system, motivating some developments of the model concept. READ MORE

  2. 2. Deep learning applied to system identification : A probabilistic approach

    Author : Carl Andersson; Thomas B. Schön; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Electrical Engineering with specialization in Signal Processing; Elektroteknik med inriktning mot signalbehandling;

    Abstract : Machine learning has been applied to sequential data for a long time in the field of system identification. As deep learning grew under the late 00's machine learning was again applied to sequential data but from a new angle, not utilizing much of the knowledge from system identification. READ MORE

  3. 3. Deep probabilistic models for sequential and hierarchical data

    Author : Carl Andersson; Thomas B. Schön; Niklas Wahlström; Roy Smith; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Machine learning; Deep learning; Sequential modelling; Electrical Engineering with specialization in Signal Processing; Elektroteknik med inriktning mot signalbehandling;

    Abstract : Consider the problem where we want a computer program capable of recognizing a pedestrian on the road. This could be employed in a car to automatically apply the brakes to avoid an accident. READ MORE

  4. 4. Accelerating Monte Carlo methods for Bayesian inference in dynamical models

    Author : Johan Dahlin; Thomas B. Schön; Fredrik Lindsten; Richard Everitt; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Computational statistics; Monte Carlo; Markov chains; Particle filters; Machine learning; Bayesian optimisation; Approximate Bayesian Computations; Gaussian processes; Particle Metropolis-Hastings; Approximate inference; Pseudo-marginal methods;

    Abstract : Making decisions and predictions from noisy observations are two important and challenging problems in many areas of society. Some examples of applications are recommendation systems for online shopping and streaming services, connecting genes with certain diseases and modelling climate change. READ MORE

  5. 5. Dual control concepts for linear dynamical systems

    Author : Mina Ferizbegovic; Håkan Hjalmarsson; Thomas B. Schön; Cristian R. Rojas; Roy Smith; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Electrical Engineering; Elektro- och systemteknik;

    Abstract : We study simultaneous learning and control of linear dynamical systems. In such a setting, control policies are derived with respect to two objectives: i) to control the system as well as possible, given the current knowledge of system dynamics (exploitation), and ii) to gather as much information as possible about the unknown system that can improve control (exploration).
