Abstract:

In this study, a novel easy-to-use meta-heuristic method for simultaneous identification of model structure and the associated parameters for linear systems is developed. This is achieved via a constrained multidimensional particle swarm optimization (PSO) mechanism developed by hybridizing two main methodologies: one for negating the limit for fixing the particle’s dimensions within the PSO process and another for enhancing the exploration ability of the particles by adopting a cyclic neighborhood topology of the swarm. This optimizer consecutively searches the dimensional optimum of particles and then the positional optimum in the search space, whose dimension is specified by the explored optimal dimension. The dimensional optimum provides the optimal model structure, while the positional optimum provides the optimal model parameters. Typical numerical examples are considered for evaluation purposes, which clearly demonstrate that the proposed PSO scheme provides novel and powerful impetus with remarkable reliability toward simultaneous identification of model structure and unknown model parameters. Furthermore, identification experiments are conducted on a magnetic levitation system and a robotic manipulator with joint flexibility to demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed strategy in practical applications.
