In this study, an Autoregressive with eXogenous input (ARX) model and an Autoregressive Moving Average with eXogenous input (ARMAX) model are developed to predict the overhead temperature of a distillation column. The model parameters are estimated using the recursive algorithms. In order to select an optimal model for the process, different performance measures, such as Aikeke's Information Criterion (AIC), Root Mean Square Error (RMSE), and Nash–Sutcliffe Efficiency (NSE), are calculated.

Forecasting is science to estimate occurrence of the future. This matter can be conducted by entangling intake of past data and place to the next period with a mathematical form. This research aims to estimate the number of foreign tourists visiting Bali models using autoregressive moving average exogenous (ARMAX). The data used in this study is the number of tourists in Australia and the number of tourists in the RRC as a variable Y, and foreign currency exchange rate AUD, Chinese Yuan, and Export Import as the X factor from the period July 2009 to July 2014. In the analysis can be obtained in the best ARMAX models of the number of tourists in Australia is ARMAX(1,2,2) and the best model of the number of tourists in the RRC does not exist because the data for the ARMAX model parameters tourists no significant RRC.

The modeling of distillation column process is a very challenging problem because of the complex dynamic behavior. This paper investigates a Nonlinear Autoregressive Moving Average with eXogenous input (NARMAX) model, and a Hammerstein model to approximate the evolution of the overhead temperature in a separation system. The model development and validation are studied through experiments carried out on a distillation plant of laboratory scale. Three model order selection criteria such as Aikeke’s Information Criterion (AIC), Root Mean Square Error (RMSE) and Nash–Sutcliffe Efficiency (NSE) are used to evaluate the prediction performance of the process behavior. The results illustrate that both models produce acceptable predictions but the NARMAX model outperforms the Hammerstein model.

Abstract One of the most important bases in the management of catchments and sustainable use of water resources is the prediction of hydrological parameters. In this study, support vector machine (SVM), support vector machine combined with wavelet transform (W-SVM), autoregressive moving average with exogenous variable (ARMAX) model, and autoregressive integrated moving average (ARIMA) models were used to predict monthly values of precipitation, discharge, and evaporation. For this purpose, the monthly time series of rain-gauge, hydrometric, and evaporation-gauge stations located in the catchment area of Hamedan during a 25-year period (1991–2015) were used. Out of this statistical period, 17 years (1991–2007), 4 years (2008–2011), and 4 years (2012–2015) were used for training, calibration, and validation of the models, respectively. The results showed that the ARIMA, SVM, ARMAX, and W-SVM ranked from first to fourth in the monthly precipitation prediction and SVM, ARIMA, ARMAX, and W-SVM were ranked from first to fourth in the monthly discharge and monthly evaporation prediction. It can be said that the SVM has fewer adjustable parameters than other models. Thus, the model is able to predict hydrological changes with greater ease and in less time, because of which it is preferred to other methods.

For the single-channel autoregressive moving average (ARMA) signals with multisensor, and with unknown model parameters and noise variances, the local estimators of unknown model parameters and noise variances are obtained by the recursive instrumental variable (RIV) algorithm and correlation method, and the fused estimators are obtained by taking the average of the local estimators. Substituting them into the optimal fusion Kalman filter, a self-tuning fusion Kalman filter for single-channel ARMA signals is presented. A simulation example shows its effectiveness.

The Hammerstein models can accurately describe a wide variety of nonlinear systems (chemical process, power electronics, electrical drives, sticky control valves). Algorithms of identification depend, among other, on the assumption about the nature of stochastic disturbance. Practical research shows that disturbances, owing the presence of outliers, have a non-Gaussian distribution. In such case it is a common practice to use the robust statistics. In the paper, by analysis of the least favourable probability density, it is shown that the robust (Huber`s) estimation criterion can be presented as a sum of non-overlapping - norm and - norm criteria. By using a Weiszfald algorithm - norm criterion is converted to - norm criterion. So, the weighted - norm criterion is obtained for the identification. The main contributions of the paper are: (i) Presentation of the Huber`s criterion as a sum of - norm and - norm criteria; (ii) Using the Weiszfald algorithm  – norm criterion is converted to a weighted - norm criterion; (iii) Weighted extended least squares in which robustness is included through weighting coefficients are derived for NARMAX (nonlinear autoregressive moving average with exogenous variable) . The illustration of the behaviour of the proposed algorithm is presented through simulations.

Modelling of linear dynamical systems is very important issue in science and engineering. The modelling process might be achieved by either the application of the governing laws describing the process or by using the input-output data sequence of the process. Most of the modelling algorithms reported in the literature focus on either determining the order or estimating the model parameters. In this paper, the authors present a new method for modelling. Given the input-output data sequence of the model in the absence of any information about the order, the correct order of the model as well as the correct parameters is determined simultaneously using genetic algorithm. The algorithm used in this paper has several advantages; first, it does not use complex mathematical procedures in detecting the order and the parameters; second, it can be used for low as well as high order systems; third, it can be applied to any linear dynamical system including the autoregressive, moving-average, and autoregressive moving-average models; fourth, it determines the order and the parameters in a simultaneous manner with a very high accuracy. Results presented in this paper show the potentiality, the generality, and the superiority of our method as compared with other well-known methods.

Virtual arrays formed by operating temperature modulation of a commercial non selective chemoresistor have been utilized for gas identification. Here, we are reporting the details of a refined system which distinctly classifies methanol, ethanol, 1-butanol, acetone and hydrogen contaminations in a wide concentration range. A staircase voltage waveform of 5 plateaus is applied to the sensor’s microheater and gas recognition is achieved in 25 s. Sensor’s output is modeled by an “autoregressive moving average with exogenous variables” (ARMAX) model. The modeling parameters obtained for an unknown analyte are utilized as the components of its feature vectors which afford its classification in a feature space. Cross-validation in the 5 to 100 ppm concentration range for H2, and 200 to 2000 ppm for the other analytes examined, resulted in an overall classification success rate of 100%.

This paper presents an assessment of the effects of terrorism on tourism by using time series methods, namely the ARMAX (autoregressive moving average with explanatory variables) model. This is a single-equation approach, which has the ability to provide impact analysis easily. The use of the ARMAX model allows for the general shape of the lag distribution of the impacts of the explanatory variables based on the ratio of lag polynomials for the independent and dependent variables. The ARMAX models, like the ARIMA models, provide for a short-term assessment of terrorist incidents on tourism.
