<p>Gray-box identification is prevalent in modeling physical and networked systems. However, due to the non-convex nature of the gray-box identification problem, good initial parameter estimates are crucial for a successful application. In this paper, a new identification method is proposed by exploiting the low-rank and structured Hankel matrix of impulse response. This identification problem is recasted into a difference-of-convex programming problem, which is then solved by the sequential convex programmi…
