The general idea and conceptual approaches are developed following recent results on machine-learning based identification of the Koopman operator using autoencoders and DMDc for finite-dimensional discrete-time system identification. The resulting linear reduced order model is combined with a classical Kalman Filter for state reconstruction with minimum error covariance as well as a reduced order observer with very low computational and memory demands. The performance of the two schemes is evaluated and compared in terms of the approximated L2 error norm in a numerical simulation study. It turns out, that for the evaluated case study the reduced-order scheme achieves comparable performance with significantly less computational load.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/a14110330","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2021,11,11]],"date-time":"2021-11-11T23:02:41Z","timestamp":1636671761000},"page":"330","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":5,"title":["Autoencoder-Based Reduced Order Observer Design for a Class of Diffusion-Convection-Reaction Systems"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"14","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-2710-1851","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Alexander","family":"Schaum","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Automization and Control Group, Kaiserstr. 2, 24143 Kiel, Germany"}]}],"member":"1968","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2021,11,11]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref_1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"74","DOI":"10.1109\/TME.1964.4323124","article-title":"Observing the state of a linear system","volume":"8","author":"Luenberger","year":"1964","journal-title":"IEEE Trans.
