Licensee MDPI, Basel, Switzerland.In the present work, a neuronal dynamic response prediction system is shown to estimate the response of multiple systems remotely without sensors. For this, a set of Neural Networks and the response to the step of a stable system is used. Six basic characteristics of the dynamic response were extracted and used to calculate a Transfer Function equivalent to the dynamic model. A database with 1,500,000 data points was created to train the network system with the basic characteristics of the dynamic response and the Transfer Function that causes it. The contribution of this work lies in the use of Neural Network systems to estimate the behavior of any stable system, which has multiple advantages compared to typical linear regression techniques since, although the training process is offline, the estimation can perform in real time. The results show an average 2% MSE error for the set of networks. In addition, the system was tested with physical systems to observe the performance with practical examples, achieving a precise estimation of the output with an error of less than 1% for simulated systems and high performance in real signals with the typical noise associated due to the acquisition system.
