Description
The behavioral setting [1] is suited for data-driven algorithms since
systems are viewed as sets of trajectories. A classical result in this
framework, known as /Willems' fundamental lemma/ [2], states the
conditions that allow to represent all the system trajectories
from an observed one. This result makes possible to perform
data-driven simulations [3], that is simulation of the future system
trajectories directly from the observed data (without estimating a
system model).
The classical theory about the topic was developed for the class of
linear time-invariant systems only.
We discuss recent results [4,5] on how to switch from linear to
nonlinear systems.
