The speaker did not refer to the system parameters which were to be modeled or to the general architecture of his control system. What is your definition of an adaptive control system? There is considerable hype permeating the controls community regarding adaptive "neural networks". How do these models fit in with your definition? Thanks for your replies and discussion...
