REPSOL

Goal:

Identify techniques aimed at estimating the current state of a dynamic system characterised by a nonlinear model. In addition to determining the initial state, it would be valuable if these techniques allowed for the adjustment of model parameters using a set of the most recent observations. Ideally, the selected techniques should enable the imposition of constraints on state and parameter values to prevent the identification of physically inadmissible situations. An example of such a technique is Moving Horizon Estimation (MHE).
