On Structural Identifiability

Author

Summary, in English

In this article we introduce a new concept, structural identifiability, which plays a central role in identification problems. The concept is useful when answering questions such as: To what extent is it possible to get insight into the internal structure of a system from input-output measurements? What experiments are necessary in order to determine the internal couplings uniquely? The definition of the concept of an identifiable structure is given. Criteria as well as certain identifiable structures are discussed. Particular emphasis is given to compartmental models.
