            Abstract : 
A nonlinear system identification setup is formulated as a task of finding a stable feedback system of fixed complexity providing the best robust fit for a given set of input-output data. New techniques, based on incremental passivity, are proposed for casting such problems in a format which allows application of efficient convex optimization engines. Case studies of specific implementations of the approach are provided.
