Ding J, Chen J, Lin J, et al. Particle filtering based parameter estimation for systems with output-error type model structures[J]. Journal of the Franklin Institute, 2019, 356(10): 5521-5540.

The output-error model structure is often used in practice and its identification is important for analysis of output-error type systems. This paper considers the parameter identification of linear and nonlinear output-error models. A particle filter which approximates the posterior probability density function with a weighted set of discrete random sampling points is utilized to estimate the unmeasurable true process outputs. To improve the convergence rate of the proposed algorithm, the scalar innovations are grouped into an innovation vector, thus more past information can be utilized. The convergence analysis shows that the parameter estimates can converge to their true values. Finally, both linear and nonlinear results are verified by numerical simulation and engineering.
