Estimate Parameters and States

Specify estimation data, progress plots, and optimization methods; speed up estimation using parallel computing and fast restart

Simulink® Design Optimization™ software provides both command-line tools and a graphical Parameter Estimator app for estimating parameters and states of a system modeled in Simulink. You can estimate several parameters and states of your model using single or multiple data sets. You can also impose custom constraints on parameter values, use parallel computing to speed up estimation, and generate code to run parameter estimation in deployed mode.
