Subspace identification methods (SIMs) have proven very powerful for estimating linear state-space models. To overcome the deficiencies of classical SIMs, a significant number of algorithms has appeared over the last two decades, where most of them involve a common intermediate step, that is to estimate the range space of the extended observability matrix. In this contribution, an optimized version of the parallel and parsimonious SIM (PARSIM), PARSIM opt , is proposed by using weighted least-squares. It not only inherits all the benefits of PARSIM but also attains the best linear unbiased estimator for the above intermediate step. Furthermore, inspired by SIMs based on the predictor form, consistent estimates of the optimal weighting matrix for weighted least-squares are derived. Essential similarities, differences and simulated comparisons of some key SIMs related to our method are also presented.

Markov parameters play a key role in system identification. There exists many algorithms where these parameters are estimated using least-squares in a first, pre-processing, step, including subspace identification and multi-step least-squares algorithms, such as Weighted Null-Space Fitting. Recently, there has been an increasing interest in non-asymptotic analysis of estimation algorithms. In this contribution we identify the Markov parameters using weighted least-squares and present non-asymptotic analysis for such estimator. To cover both stable and unstable systems, multiple trajectories are collected. We show that with the optimal weighting matrix, weighted least-squares gives a tighter error bound than ordinary least-squares for the case of non-uniformly distributed measurement errors. Moreover, as the optimal weighting matrix depends on the system’s true parameters, we introduce two methods to consistently estimate the optimal weighting matrix, where the convergence rate of these estimates is also provided. Numerical experiments demonstrate improvements of weighted least-squares over ordinary least-squares in finite sample settings.

In addressing the challenges posed by climate change, energy poverty, and energy crises, there is an increasing focus on transitioning to green and fossil fuel-free alternatives, reflecting a strong commitment to sustainable development. The Smart Readiness Indicator, introduced by the European Union, aims to improve the energy efficiency of buildings, adjust operations to meet occupants' needs, and respond to signals from the electricity grid. Consequently, developing new methods for decarbonising the energy system has become essential to meet the energy demands of industries, businesses, transportation, and residential sectors. This necessitates a comprehensive understanding of the situation and the implementation of various actions to reform the regulatory framework, promote technological advancements, stimulate economic growth, and foster collective social efforts. This study focuses on customising the Smart Readiness Indicator methodological framework by adjusting the weighting factors of different domains based on the “energy balance” method. Currently, the European Commission provides standard domain weighting values, however this study is focused on their tailoring in order to reflect specific climate zones. Utilising open data and consumption patterns, the customised weightings are applied to a typical Greek single-family house to demonstrate the differences and underscore the importance of tailored assessments for extracting more accurate results compared to the “standard” methodology. The findings highlight significant improvements, especially in energy efficiency and occupant comfort functionalities, suggesting that tailored approaches can enhance the accuracy of SRI assessments.

We propose an online identification scheme for discrete-time piece-wise affine state-space models based on a system of adaptive algorithms running in two timescales. A stochastic approximation algorithm implements an online deterministic annealing scheme at a slow timescale, estimating the partition of the augmented state-input space that defines the switching signal. At the same time, an adaptive identification algorithm, running at a higher timescale, updates the parameters of the local models based on the estimate of the switching signal. Identifiability conditions for the switched system are discussed and convergence results are given based on the theory of two-timescale stochastic approximation. In contrast to standard identification algorithms for piece-wise affine systems, the proposed approach progressively estimates the number of modes needed and is appropriate for online system identification using sequential data acquisition. This progressive nature of the algorithm improves computational efficiency and provides real-time control over the performance-complexity trade-off, desired in practical applications. Experimental results validate the efficacy of the proposed methodology.
