AFIS Would Not Be Possible Without Ljung System IdentificationSmart people are really what make the world go around. Now, do not worry, it does take all kinds of people to make it great, but without smart people like Lennart Ljung, the world as we know it would be gone, and in its place would be a group of animal like creatures grunting at one another hoping that some food will stumble in their path before they have to eat their neighbors. Why Lennart Ljung, you might ask, especially if you never heard of him, but Ljung is responsible for Ljung System Identification. To understand what Ljung System Identification is, you have to understand System Identification. System Identification, according to Wikipedia, is a general term to describe mathematical tools and algorithms that build dynamical models from measured data. What this means is that information is gathered about specific people, places, or things and that information is then categorized into specific groups to help them become identifiable when compared or contrasted with a like person, place or thing. Without Ljung System Identification, we would be about 40 years behind what we are today when it comes to developing systems. You many think that it is just is not so, but consider databases such as IBIS or AFIS, without Ljung System Identification these systems would not be possible. It was Ljung System Identification theory that allowed for the advancement in system identification, which furthered our ability to use information in a comparable fashion. Ljung System Identification changed the world and the way that information is gathered and measured. We have the ability to compare two bullet casings from across the world because of Ljung System Identification. Ljung System Identification is also used for the tracking of objects and items within a business or company. System identification allows the user to know exactly what is where and how or why it is working. It provides the user with information as to how to turn something on or off and if there are any issues within a system. Ljung System Identification has allowed business to run better and to think smarter than ever before. Lennart Ljung has always been interested in system identification, and it is doubtful the he recognized that Ljung System Identification would change the way the world communicated as much as it has. Not the kind of communications where we speak on the phone, but the kind of communication where we can ask a computer to find out something about an object that is stored within the system and the system can identify it for us. |
