In order to precisely model real-life systems or man-made devices both nonlinear and dynamic
properties need to be taken into account. The generic black-box model based on Volterra and
Wiener series is capable of representing fairly complicated nonlinear and dynamic interactions
however the resulting identification algorithms are impractical mainly due to their
computational complexity. One of the alternatives offering fast identification algorithms is
the block-oriented approach in which systems of relatively simple structures are considered.
The book provides nonparametric identification algorithms designed for such systems together
with the description of their asymptotic and computational properties.
