Funding

This work was supported in part by the Flanders Fund for Scientific Research (FWO), the Vrije Universiteit Brussel (VUB), Brussels, Belgium, and the European Research Council Advanced Grant SNLSID, under contract 320378. The authors thank Julien Ertveldt (VUB) for the results on the wind tunnel experiments, including Figure S5; Dham-mika Widanalage and Julian Stouv (VUB) for the wet-clutch results shown in Figure S2; Gaëtan Kerschen and Jean-Philippe Noël (University of Liège, Belgium) and Bart Peeters (Siemens Product Life-cycle Management Belgium) for the results on the ground vibration test shown in Figure  2; Torbjön Wigren (University Uppsala, Sweden), Maarten Schoukens (VUB), and Keith Worden and his team (University of Sheffield, United Kingdom) for the results on the cascaded water tanks, including Figure 11; Oliver Nelles (University of Siegen, Germany) and his team for the high-pressure fuel supply system example, including Figures 17 and 18; Martijn Vlaar and his team (Technical University Delft, The Netherlands) and Georgios Birpoutsoukis (VUB) for the results on the brain modeling (Figure 24); Rishi Relan (VUB) for the results on the battery model in Figures 27 and 28; Erliang Zhang (Zhengzhou University, China) and Maarten Schoukens (VUB) for the results on process noise detection in Figure S10; Alireza Fakhrizadeh Esfahani (VUB) and Jean-Philippe Noël (University of Liège) for the results on the Bouc–Wen hysteresis problem (Figure S16); and Thomas B. Schön (University Uppsala) for the contribution to “Identifying Nonlinear Dynamical Systems in the Presence of Process Noise.” Ulla Saleneck suggested the names for the different shades of gray.
