  • Abstract
    In this paper we consider the finite sample properties of least squares system identification, and we derive nonasymptotic confidence ellipsoids for the estimate. Unlike asymptotic theory, the obtained confidence ellipsoids are valid for a finite number of data points. The probability that the estimate belongs to a certain ellipsoid has a natural dependence on the volume of the ellipsoid, the data generating mechanism, the model order and the number of data points available
