Robust Student estimator
Hlavinka, Radek ; Friml, Dominik (referee) ; Dokoupil, Jakub (advisor)
This Master's thesis deals with Bayesian approach to robust parameter estimation for ARX models. Robustness is achieved by assuming the measurement noise to be generated by Student-t distribution. The asumption of Student-t noise renders the model's posterior intractable and requires utilization of approximation techniques. This thesis considers algorithms using Gibbs sampler and Variational approximation and compares them with Ordinary Least Squares. The algorithms are compared based on their Maximum Likelihood estimation. It is shown that approaches assuming the Student-t noise perform better in simulation. The results from data acquired from physical system are however similar for all algorithms considered.
