Dr Thomas Schön

Sydney, May 2005

My main research interest is nonlinear inference, especially within the context of dynamical systems, solved using probabilistic methods. In terms of scientific fields, my research is situated somewhere on the intersection between the fields of signal processing, machine learning, automatic control and mathematical statistics. My aim is to pursue both basic and applied research, where the latter is typically carried out in close collaboration with industry.

  • Mar 30, 2012: Our paper, System identification of nonlinear state-space models [pdf] was the second most downloaded Automatica paper during 2011. The Top 25 list is available here.
  • Mar 5, 2012: I have been invited as a guest Professor in Johan Schoukens' graduate course, Identification of Nonlinear Dynamic Systems. During June 6-7 I will give 4 two hour lectures on "Computational inference in dynamical systems", more detailed information available here here. This will be a short version of a full PhD course that I am currently developing and hope to be able to offer in its full form sometime during the coming year.
