Abstract
This paper presents a method which aims at improving parameter estimation in dynamical systems. The general principle of the method is based on a modification of the leastβsquares objective function by means of a weighting operator, in view to improve the conditioning of the identification problem. First we recall a previous work using variational calculus in order to obtain the weighting operators through a linear equation. Then we propose a new approach which consists of determining the weights by formulating an optimization problem including positive semidefinite constraints (linear matrix inequalities, LMI).

The optimal control of a class of linear deterministic time-invariant multi-dimensional distributed systems is considered. The unconstrained optimal control problem is formulated as a quadratic minimisation in a real Hilbert space. A conjugate gradient minimisation technique is employed in its solut

## Abstract This paper deals with optimal designs for Gaussian random fields with constant trend and exponential correlation structure, widely known as the OrnsteinβUhlenbeck process. Assuming the maximum likelihood approach, we study the optimal design problem for the estimation of the trend Β΅ and
