Extended stochastic gradient identification algorithms for Hammerstein–Wiener ARMAX systems

An extended stochastic gradient algorithm is developed to estimate the parameters of Hammerstein–Wiener ARMAX models. The basic idea is to replace the unmeasurable noise terms in the information vector of the pseudo-linear regression identification model with the corresponding noise estimates which are computed by the obtained parameter estimates. The obtained parameter estimates of the identification model include the product terms of the parameters of the original systems. Two methods of separating the parameter estimates of the original parameters from the product terms are discussed: the average method and the singular value decomposition method. To improve the identification accuracy, an extended stochastic gradient algorithm with a forgetting factor is presented. The simulation results indicate that the parameter estimation errors become small by introducing the forgetting factor.

Optimal experimental design and some related control problems

This paper traces the strong relations between experimental design and control, such as the use of optimal inputs to obtain precise parameter estimation in dynamical systems and the introduction of suitably designed perturbations in adaptive control. The mathematical background of optimal experimental design is briefly presented, and the role of experimental design in the asymptotic properties of estimators is emphasized. Although most of the paper concerns parametric models, some results are also presented for statistical learning and prediction with nonparametric models.     

Parameter identification and position control for helical hydraulic rotary actuators based on particle swarm optimization

It is difficult to obtain an accurate mathematical model in electro-hydraulic servo control system, due to the nonlinear factors such as dead zone, saturation, flow coefficient, and friction. Hence, a parameter identification algorithm, combining recursive least squares (RLS) with modified nonlinear particle swarm optimization (NPSO) algorithm, is proposed. On this basis, another improved NPSO algorithm is also put forward, aiming at searching for the optimal proportional–integral (PI) controller gain of the nonlinear hydraulic system while giving comprehensive consideration to the system performance indexes. The system identification experiments and position tracking control are conducted, respectively. As indicated by the comparison with the least squares (LS), RLS, PSO, and RLS–LPSO results, the proposed method shows higher identification and control accuracy.     

Extracting embedded messages using adaptive steganography based on optimal syndrome-trellis decoding paths

Privacy protection is the key to maintaining the Internet of Things (IoT) communication strategy. Steganography is an important way to achieve covert communication that protects user data privacy. Steganalysis technology is the key to checking steganography security, and its ultimate goal is to extract embedded messages. Existing methods cannot extract under known cover images. To this end, this paper proposes a method of extracting embedded messages under known cover images. First, the syndrome-trellis encoding process is analyzed. Second, a decoding path in the syndrome trellis is obtained by using the stego sequence and a certain parity-check matrix, while the embedding process is simulated using the cover sequence and parity-check matrix. Since the decoding path obtained by the stego sequence and the correct parity-check matrix is optimal and has the least distortion, comparing the path consistency can quickly filter the coding parameters to determine the correct matrices, and embedded messages can be extracted correctly. The proposed method does not need to embed all possible messages for the second time, improving coding parameter recognition significantly. The experimental results show that the proposed method can identify syndrome-trellis coding parameters in stego images embedded by adaptive steganography quickly to realize embedded message extraction.     

Identification of local cyclic stress‐strain curves at material inhomogeneities on the basis of digital image correlation

Low‐cycle fatigue (LCF) tests on butt‐welded joints revealed that material inhomogeneities become decisive for the fatigue behavior at elastic‐plastic strain amplitudes and the geometrical notch is no longer the failure location – as observed in high‐cycle fatigue (HCF) regime. Digital image correlation techniques enable the measurement of local strains at the surface of the welded region. A new method is proposed that is able to calculate related local stresses and identifies local cyclic material properties in structures of inhomogeneous material and geometry. This method combines strain measurements and Finite Element simulations. It is a fast iteration procedure that is able to perform the identification within less than ten iterative steps at several hundred local points. Transient material behavior is easy to capture and an application at high temperatures is anticipated due to the method is based on materials mechanics.
