%0 Journal Article %T Fast Time-varying modal parameter identification algorithm based on two-layer linear neural network learning for subspace tracking %A Kai Yang %A Kaiping Yu %J International Journal of Information Engineering and Electronic Business %D 2011 %I MECS Publisher %X The key of fast identification algorithm of time-varying modal parameter based on subspace tracking is to find efficient and fast subspace-tracking algorithm. This paper presents a modified version of NIC(Novel Information Criterion) adopted in two-layer linear neural network learning for subspace tracking, which is applied in time-varying modal parameter identification algorithm based on subspace tracking and get a new time-varying modal parameter identification algorithm. Comparing with the original subspace-tracking algorithm, there is no need to set a key control parameter in advance. Simulation experiments show that new time-varying modal parameter identification algorithm has a faster convergence in the initial period and a real experiment under laboratory conditions confirms further its validity of the time-varying modal identification algorithm presented in this paper. %K subspace tracking %K time-varying modal parameter %K identification algorithm %K neural network learning %U http://www.mecs-press.org/ijieeb/ijieeb-v3-n1/v3n1-3.html
