Intelligent knowledge-based system for dynamic system identification

Abstract
The development and evaluation of an expert advisor for system identification (EASI) is described. The principles behind a suitable knowledge representation paradigm for a system which includes both intelligent tutoring and software package front-end concepts are outlined. The system has been constructed using an expert system ‘text-animation’ shell with linkage into Prolog-2 to provide enhancements. These extensions have included an online dictionary and bibliographic material. The identification domain aspects covered include experimental design, model structure determination, estimation algorithms, with applications to SISO and MIMO linear systems, and SISO nonlinear dynamics. Different levels of user-model are provided, and the advisor acts as a front-end to a number of in-house identification packages.
