Back to the Roots Seminar Series
The ERC research project "Back to the roots of data-driven dynamical system identification", led by Prof. Dr. Bart De Moor (KU Leuven, ESAT-STADIUS), focuses on system identification, where mathematical models are derived from observed data generated by systems such as medical monitoring, electricity consumption and industrial processes.

Georganiseerd door:
Utilizing optimization algorithms, one seeks to identify the best model in a chosen model class. This methodology finds widespread application across thousands of use cases within the AI community. However, there is no guarantee that optimization algorithms will find the best model. Present-day optimization practices are heuristic in nature, yielding results that may not be reproducible and consequently difficult to interpret.
The main objective of the Back to the Roots project is to develop a theoretical framework that combines model classes and optimization algorithms, enabling the calculation of the optimal model within the specified model class with 100% certainty.
This seminar series brings international experts to Leuven in 2023-2024.
Key themes
The seminar series is centered around the key themes of the Back to the Roots project:
- globally optimal system identification,
- polynomial optimization,
- multiparameter eigenvalue problems,
- system theory for multidimensional systems.
