Prof. Dr. Moritz Diehl
Modeling and System Identification (MSI) is concerned with the search for mathematical models for real-life systems. The course is based on statistics, optimization and simulation methods for differential equations. The exercises will be based on pen-and-paper exercises and computer exercises with MATLAB.

Recap session 1 - Cancelled
The announced recap session will not be held, as not enough students showed interest in such an event.
MATLAB
All students must have MATLAB installed on their personal laptop and bring it to the exercise sessions (and the tutorials in the beginning of the semester). The university provides licences.
There is an online (in browser) version of MATLAB. This service is provided by MathWorks and can be accessed with a MathWorks account. We won't be able to provide support for the online version and the exercises may exceed it's capabilities.
