This paper studies on the model identification of electro-hydraulic servo systems, which are composed of servo valves, double-rod cylinder and load mass. The identified plant is described as a discrete-time ARX or ARMAX model which is respectively obtained from the identification algorithms of least square error method, instrumental variable method and prediction error method. where a nominal model and the variation of model parameters are quantitatively evaluated.

This paper identifies a discrete-time linear combustion model of Refuse Incineration Plant(RIP) which characterizes steam generation quantity, where the RIP is considered as a MIMO system with thirteen-inputs and one-output. The structure of RIP model is described as an ARX model which are analytically obtained from the combustion dynamics. Furthermore, using the Instrumental Variable(IV) identification algorithm, model structure and unknown parameters are identified from experimental input-output data sets, In result, it is shown that the identified ARX model well approximates the input-output combustion characteristics given by experimental data sets.

The signal can be modeled as a linear combination of its past values and present and past values of a hypothetical input to system whose output is given signal. Using this model spectral estimation problem can be reduced to estimate the ARMA parameters. This paper presents recursive modified instrumental variable algorithm which can estimate AR and MA parameters. For more accurate estimation, overdetermined modified IV algorithm is also derived. Computer simulations are presented to illustrate the above methods.

Methods for the estimation of the coefficient matrices in the equation of motion for a linear multi-degree-of-freedom structure are studied. For this purpose, the equation of motion is transformed into an auto-regressive and moving average with auxiliary input(ARMAX) model. The ARMAX parameters are evaluated using several methods of parameter estimation : such as the least squares, the instrumental variable, the maximum likelihood and the limited information maximum likelihood methods. Then the parameters of the equation of motion are recovered therefrom. Numerical example is given for a 3-story building model subjected to an earthquake exitation.

Analysis and lattice implementation of Extended Instrumental Variable (EIV) methods for high resolution spectral analysis are presented. The performance of EIV is improved by using prefilters and the unbiasness of EIV is proved by using the fact that residual processes are white. We derive the order and time update formulas for the covariance lattice algorithm which is particularly useful in case of short data or nonstationary processes. The ARMA model can be modeled as two channel AR processes. Using this model, the lattice algorithms of EIV are derived. Computer simulations are performed to show the usefulness of the proposed algorithms.

This paper reviews the learning model of a forward slip ratio in order to improve the mass-flow stability and strip qualities in the hot strip finishing mill process. Firstly, it is shown, from mathematical analysis, that the significant parameters of the forward slip ratio are the tension, looper angle, and roll velocity. Secondly, a discrete-time learning model of the forward slip ratio is proposed from these parameters, which is identified by an instrumental variable (IV) identification algorithm. Finally, it is shown from computer simulation that the proposed learning model is more effective than the existing learning model.

This paper studies the identification of a combustion model, which is used to design a linear controller of a steam generation quantity and harmful exhaust gases of a Refuse Incineration Plant(RIP). Even though the RIP has strong nonlinearities and complexities, it is identified as a MIMO parametric ARX model from experimental input-output data sets. Unknown model parameters are decided from experimental input-output data sets, using system identification algorithm based on Instrumental Variables(IV) method. It is shown that the identified model well approximates the input-output combustion characteristics.

This study examined the effects of indemnity private health insurance on the medical utilization among the Korean adults. The used data were the 2014 survey data of Korea Health Panel, and the number of subjects was 11,436. Authors employed instrumental variable regression model where the instrument variables for controlling for endogeneity of indemnity were the purchasing of private pension and number of family members. The results showed that the number of outpatient visits and the number of hospitalizations for indemnity private health insurance subscribers were higher than non-subscribers. The number of household members and the private pension variables were proved to be appropriate as instrumental variables. This paper recommends the Korean government to monitor and evaluate the effects of indemnity private health insurance on the medical utilization in order to improve the efficiency of health care finance.

An electric furnace, inside which desired temperatures are kept constant by generating heat, is known to be a difficult system to control and model exactly because system parameters and response delay time vary as the temperature and position are changed. In this study the heating system of ceramic drying furnaces with time-varying parameters is mathematically modeled as a second order system and control parameters are estimated by using a RIV (Recursive Instrumental-Variable) method. A modified bang-bang control with magnitude tuning is proposed in the time optimal temperature control of ceramic drying electric furnaces and its performance is experimentally verified. It is proven that temperature tracking of adaptive time optimal control using a second order model is more stable than the GPCEW (Generalized Predictive Control with Exponential Weight) and rapidly settles down by pre-estimation of the system parameters.
