State estimation when only a partial model of a considered system is available remains a major challenge in many engineering fields. This work proposes a joint, square-root unscented Kalman filter to estimate states and model uncertainties simultaneously by linear combinations of physics-motivated library functions. Using a sparsity promoting approach, a selection of those linear combinations is chosen and thus an interpretable model can be extracted. Results indicate a small estimation error compared to a traditional square-root unscented Kalman filter and exhibit the enhancement of physically meaningful models.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
