Abstract
This disclosure describes systems, methods, and apparatus for an adaptive engine with a bifurcated nonlinear model. The adaptive controller uses a nonlinear model having a control portion and an estimation portion, wherein the estimation portion uses a time-varying linear system to approximate nonlinear behavior of the system. Further, the time-varying linear system receives a structure of the underlying matrices for every frame of control samples allowing the time-varying linear system to model large nonlinearities and to pre-process this linear approximation for each frame. At the same time, the time-varying linear system also uses estimated model parameter tensors in the underlying matrices that are updated or adapted every control cycle, in real-time, throughout a frame, such that the linear approximation is also able to approximate small nonlinearities in the system. This bifurcation of a linearized model provides a faster and more robust adaptive controller.
