LQG and Gaussian process techniques: For fixed-structure wind turbine control

Wind turbines are growing bigger to becomemore cost-efficient. This does increase the severity of the vibrations that are present in the turbine blades, both due to predictable effects like wind shear and tower shadow, and due to less predictable effects like turbulence and flutter. If wind turbines are to become bigger and more cost-efficient,...

Kernel based LTI and LPV subspace identification: A synergy between machine learning and system identification methods

System identification is the art of constructing mathematical models from observed data. It is a well established field with a history of over 40 years, characterized by a rich theoretical background, while it has proven its worth in many real life applications. On the other hand, Gaussian processes form a specific category of kernel based...
