Iterative Machine Learning for Output Tracking

Abstract: This article develops iterative machine learning (IML) for output tracking. The input-output data generated during iterations to develop the model used in the iterative update. The main contribution of this article to propose the use of kernel-based machine learning to iteratively update both the model and the model-inversion-based input simultaneously. Additionally, augmented inputs with persistency of excitation are proposed to promote learning of the model during the iteration process. The proposed approach is illustrated with a simulation example.
