  Encyclopedia: State space (controls)
In control engineering, a state space representation is a mathematical model of a physical system as a set of input, output and state variables related by first-order differential equations.
To abstract from the number of inputs, outputs and states, the variables are expressed as vectors and the differential and algebraic equations are written in matrix form.
In electronic systems, the number of state variables is the same as the number of energy storage elements in the circuit (capacitors and inductors).

 Wlodek M Zuberek: distributed state space generation
A popular approach to the verification of discrete-state systems is based on the exhaustive exploration of their state spaces to check if all states which are reachable from the initial state(s) satisfy the required conditions (e.g., mutual exclusion, boundedness, and so on).
The detailed definition of this function depends upon the representation of the state, but is assumed that this function uniformly distributes the states over the regions (which may not be quite simple to accomplish because the state space is not usually known in advance).
A successor state can be in the same region (in which case it is called a local state) or in a different region (in which case it is called an external state).

The state space representation of a system is one way in which the mathematical model of the system can be expressed.
The state space model for an nth-order system is a set of n 1st-order differential equations, called the state equations, and a set of p algebraic equations, called the output equations.
To compare the state space model with the impulse response representation, we can let the input u(t) be the unit impulse function, and substitute that into the solution to the differential equation shown above.

 State Space Search and Graph Search Compared
Having specified the states of the example world the next step is to specify which of the possible 8 x 7 transitions between the distinct states are realized in our example world.
In order to solve the example problem in a state space, it is necessary to provide a description that represents the legal states and a set of generators (or partial functions) which mirror the legal transitions in the "Example" World.
Detection of these cycles requires that all of the states already generated on a path to the current state be checked to determine whether the current state already exists on the path.

 State Space   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-22)
The rules that take a system in a given state to its next state over time are collected together in the "dynamic" or, equivalently, in the system's "equations of motion".
Geometrically, we imagine that each state in the state space has a little arrow attached that indicates what state to move to next.
One of the main goals of qualitative dynamics is to detect and analyze the different types of trajectories and other objects in the state space that govern a system's behavior.

 Notes: State Space Search
The the domain of state space search, the nodes are interpreted to be states in a problem-solving process, and the arcs are taken to be transitions between states.
On a path in a rooted graph, a state is said to be an ancestor of all states positioned after it (to its right) and a descendant of all states before it (to its left).
Depth first is more efficient for spaces with a large branching factor, because it does not have to keep all nodes at a given level on the open.

 Handling State Space Explosion
During model checking, most of the memory is consumed by the hash table containing the states visited and the queue of states whose successors are yet to be generated.
However, for state spaces on the order of hundred million states with practical hash table sizes of several hundred megabytes, the probability of missing even a single state due to a signature conflict can be reduced to
Finally, some of the most effective reductions in the state space are achieved through methods that risk missing some errors for the benefit of catching the remaining ones more efficiently.

 State Space Models and Filtering
A state space model usually consists of two sets of equations, the system equations and the observation equations.
For a linear Gaussian state space model, the well-known Kalman filtering approach provides optimal estimates for state variables based on the information from the two sources, the dynamic equations and the observations.
However, for nonlinear and non-Gaussian state space models, it is quite challenging to estimate the state variables (including filtering, smoothing and forecasting) and model parameters.

 Compositional State Space Generation.   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-22)
Abstract: Compositional state space generation means the generation of a condensed version of the state space of a system in a compositional manner.
The generated condensed state space is in a certain sense equivalent with the ordinary state space, thus it can be used for the analysis of certain properties of the system.
Compositional state space generation is a very desirable goal because it has the potential to significantly increase the size of systems analysable with given computer resources.

State space search techniques are often illustrated by showing how they can be used in solving puzzles of the sort you find in intelligence tests.

Rules such as [X, Y] [X, 0] mean that we can get from a state where there are X gallons in the first jug and Y in the second jug to a state where there are X gallons in the first and none in the second, using the given action.

From the viewpoint of the dynamics paradigm, the behavior of an agent, as well as the evolution of its internal states, forms a dynamical system.
State space analysis characterises the dynamics of a system in terms of attractors, geometric descriptions of recurrent trajectories, and Lyapounov exponents.
This approach to the development of quantitative measures of behavioral performance is based on the idea of treating agent behavior as dissipative structures arising in the new linear interaction space processes set up between an agent and an environment.
