ABSTRACT:
The present invention relates to a method and a system for providing an estimate of the state of a contact. The method includes the steps of sensing the state of the contact; generating signals representative of the state of the contact; and processing the signals using a random search procedure to arrive at an estimate of the state of the contact. The random search procedure may employ the simulated annealing-based algorithm methodology or the genetic-based algorithm methodologies. The system includes sensors for sensing the state of the contact and a pre-programmed computer for generating the desired contact state estimates.
