Fractional-order dynamical systems are used to describe processes that exhibit long-term memory with power-law dependence. Notable examples include complex neurophysiological signals such as electroencephalogram (EEG) and blood-oxygen-level dependent (BOLD) signals. When analyzing different neurophysiological signals and other signals with different origin (for example, biological systems), we often find the presence of artifacts, that is, recorded activity that is due to external causes and does not have its origins in the system of interest. In this paper, we consider the problem of estimating the states of a discrete-time fractional-order dynamical system when there are artifacts present in some of the sensor measurements. Specifically, we provide necessary and sufficient conditions that ensure we can retrieve the system states even in the presence of artifacts. We provide a state estimation algorithm that can estimate the states of the system in the presence of artifacts. Finally, 查看全文>>
