Finite Time Identification in Unstable Linear Systems. (arXiv:1710.01852v1 [cs.SY])

来源于:arXiv
Identification of the parameters of stable linear dynamical systems is a well-studied problem in the literature, both in the low and high-dimensional settings. However, there are hardly any results for the unstable case, especially regarding finite time bounds. For this setting, classical results on least-squares estimation of the dynamics parameters are not applicable and therefore new concepts and technical approaches need to be developed to address the issue. Unstable linear systems reflect key real applications in control theory, econometrics, and finance. This study establishes finite time bounds for the identification error of the least-squares estimates for a fairly large class of heavy-tailed noise distributions, and transition matrices of such systems. The results relate the time length required as a function of the problem dimension and key characteristics of the true underlying transition matrix and the noise distribution. To obtain them, appropriate concentration inequaliti 查看全文>>
