Integrating Deep Learning and Contraction Theory for Robust Nonlinear State Estimation via Unsupervised Scientific Machine Learning
Yasmine Marani, Israel Filho, Eric Feron, Taous-Meriem Laleg-Kirati
A common way to design observers is to add a correction term to a copy of the system; however, designing the correction term for nonlinear systems remains a significant long-standing challenge. Contraction theory offers a unified approach to designing this correction term by solv…
