Summary

This study introduces an adaptive non-parametric method using reversible jump Markov chain Monte Carlo (RJMCMC) to accurately estimate unknown input functions in linear time-invariant systems. The RJMCMC approach effectively determines spline model complexity and parameters, outperforming standard deconvolution techniques.
