Exact and Approximate Modeling of Linear Systems

Ivan Markovsky is a Postdoctoral Researcher of Electrical Engineering at Katholieke Universiteit Leuven, Belgium. His current research work is focused on identification methods in the behavioral setting and errors-in-variables estimation problems. Jan C. Willems is a full-time Visiting Professor of Electrical Engineering at Katholieke Universiteit Leuven, Belgium, with the research group on Signals, Identification, System Theory, and Automation (SISTA). His interests lie mainly in modeling, identification, control, and issues related to the foundations of systems theory. Sabine Van Huffel is a Professor of Electrical Engineering at Katholieke Universiteit Leuven, Belgium. Her research interests are in signal processing, numerical linear algebra, errors-in-variables regression, system identification, pattern recognition, (non)linear modeling, software, and statistics applied to biomedicine. Bart De Moor is a Professor of Electrical Engineering at Katholieke Universiteit Leuven, Belgium. His research interests are in numerical linear algebra and optimization, system theory, control and identification, quantum information theory, data mining, information retrieval, and bioinformatics.
