摘要:AbstractThis paper addresses the system identification problem, as well as its application to robust fault detection, considering parametric uncertainty and using zonotopes. As a result, a Zonotopic Recursive Least Squares (ZRLS) estimator is proposed and compared with the Setmembership (SM) approach when applied to fault detection, taking as a reference the minimum detectable fault generated in the worst-case. To illustrate the effectiveness of the proposed robust parameter estimation and fault detection methodologies, a quadruple tank process is employed
