RESUMO
In the field of science and engineering, identifying the nonlinear dynamics of systems from data is a significant yet challenging task. In practice, the collected data are often contaminated by noise, which often severely reduce the accuracy of the identification results. To address the issue of inaccurate identification induced by non-stationary noise in data, this paper proposes a method called weighted â1-regularized and insensitive loss function-based sparse identification of dynamics. Specifically, the robust identification problem is formulated using a sparse identification mathematical model that takes into account the presence of non-stationary noise in a quantitative manner. Then, a novel weighted â1-regularized and insensitive loss function is proposed to account for the nature of non-stationary noise. Compared to traditional loss functions like least squares and least absolute deviation, the proposed method can mitigate the adverse effects of non-stationary noise and better promote the sparsity of results, thereby enhancing the accuracy of identification. Third, to overcome the non-smooth nature of the objective function induced by the inclusion of loss and regularization terms, a smooth approximation of the non-smooth objective function is presented, and the alternating direction multiplier method is utilized to develop an efficient optimization algorithm. Finally, the robustness of the proposed method is verified by extensive experiments under different types of nonlinear dynamical systems. Compared to some state-of-the-art methods, the proposed method achieves better identification accuracy.
