Integrating virtual reference feedback tuning into a unified closed-loop identification framework

This paper compares particular instances of control-relevant identification, closed-loop identification, and controller identification (either in an actual loop or in a virtual reference feedback tuning approach, VRFT) problems. Significant similarities appear between them which allow, in particular, alternative formulations of the VRFT methodology in a differentiable setting.
