12 Using the System Identification Tool GUI
Steps for Using the System Identification Tool GUI
Atypicalworkflow in the System Identification Tool GUI includes the
following steps:
1 Import your data into the MATLAB workspace, as described in “Importing
Data into the MATLAB Workspace” on page 1-5.
2 Start a new session in the System Identification Tool GUI, or open a saved
session. For more information, see “Starting a N ew Session in the GUI”
on page 12-4.
3 Import data into the GUI from the M ATLA B workspace. For more
information, see “Representing Data in the GUI” on page 1-13.
4 Plot and p reprocess d ata to prepare it for system identification. For
example, you can remove constant offsets or linear trends (for linear models
only), filter data, or select data regions of inte rest. For more information,
see Chapter 1, “Data Processing”.
5 Specify the data for estimation and validation. For more information, see
“Specifyin g Estimation and Validation Data” on page 1-29.
6 Select the model to estimating using the E stimate menu. For more
information, see Chapter 2, “Choosing Your System Identification
Strategy”.
7 Validate models. For more information, se e Chapter 8, “Model Analysis”.
8 Export models to the M ATLA B workspace for further analysis. For
more information, see “Exporting Models from the GUI to the MATLAB
Workspace” on page 12-13.
