Abstract

The identification of time delay in the linear plant is important tasks. Most of the conventional identification techniques, such as those based on least mean-squares, are essentially gradient-guided local search techniques and they require a smooth search space or a differentiable performance index. New possibility in this field is opened by an application of the hybrid Ant Colony Optimization (ACO) with local optimization algorithm. The Directional Derivatives Simplex (DDS) as a local optimization algorithm is proposed in the paper and used in the memetic ACODDS method. The ACODDS algorithm is compared with ACO and a classical methods: Global Separable Nonlinear Least Squares (GSNLS). The obtained results suggest that the proposed method performs well in estimating the model parameters.
