In conjunction with Dr. Moble Benedict (AVFL Lab – TAMU), Dr Puneet Singla (CASS Lab – Penn State), and Dr. Randy Beard (MAGICC Lab – BYU), Dr. Valasek presented the current updates of the System Identification project at the National Science Foundation (NSF) CAAMS Summer Industry Advisory Board Meeting.
The project “Integration of System Theory with Machine Learning Tools for Data Driven System Identification” integrates system theory with machine learning tools for data driven system identification. The objective is to derive nonlinear dynamical models by employing a unique handshake between linear time varying subspace methods and sparse approximation tools from high fidelity flight simulations and flight experiments.
The center is a partnership between academia, industry, and government to offer pre-competitive research in autonomous air mobility and sensing.
