Using benchmark problems to demonstrate and compare novel methods
to the work of others could be more widely adopted by the Soft Computing
community. This article contains a collection of several benchmark
problems in nonlinear control and system identification, which are
presented in a standardized format. Each problem is augmented by
examples where it has been adopted for comparison. The selected examples
range from component to plant level problems and originate mainly
from the areas of mechatronics/drives and process systems. The authors
hope that this overview contributes to a better adoption of benchmarking
in method development, test and demonstration.
