“…To reduce this complexity, all existing approaches assume that the sub-model orders are known a priori as well as the number of sub-models for some methods. Several solutions have been presented in the literature for the identification of PWARX models such as the algebraic solution (Tian et al, 2011), the classification solution (Ferrari-Trecate et al, 2003), the greedy solution (Bemporad et al, 2003), the Bayesian solution (Juloski et al, 2005), the bounded error solution (Bemporad et al, 2005), the sparse optimization solution (Bako, 2011; Mattsson et al, 2016), and so forth. Each approach has its advantages and its drawbacks.…”
