System identification, environmental modelling, and control system design

This book is dedicated to Prof. Peter Young on his 70th birthday. Professor Young has been a pioneer in systems and control, and over the past 45 years he has influenced many developments in this field. This volume comprises a collection of contributions by leading experts in system identification, time-seriesanalysis, environmetric modelling and control system design – modern researchin topics that reflect important areas of interest in Professor Young’s research career. Recent theoretical developments in and relevant applications of these areas are explored treating the various subjects broadly and in depth. Theauthoritative and up-to-date research presented here will be of interest to academic researcher in control and disciplines related to environmental research, particularly those to with water systems. The tutorial style in which many of the contributions are composed also makes the book suitable as a source of study material for graduate students in those areas. Provides the reader with powerful statistical modelling techniques for thebetter understanding and control of environmental and biological systems. Gives the reader insight into important current control design and system identification methods with illustrative applications. Written by experts. INDICE: Data-Based Mechanistic Modelling.
