Many real-world systems exhibit complex nonlinear characteristics and cannot be treated satisfactorily using linear systems theory. A neural network which has the ability to learn sophisticated nonlinear relationships provides an ideal means of modelling complicated nonlinear systems. This paper addresses the issues related to the identification of nonlinear discrete-time dynamic systems using neural networks. Three network architectures, namely the multi-layer perceptron, the radial basis function network and the functional-link network, are presented and several learning or identification algorithms are derived. Advantages and disadvantages of these structures are discussed and illustrated using simulated and real data. Particular attention is given to the connections between existing techniques for nonlinear systems identification and some aspects of neural network methodology, and this demonstrates that …
