Sounds something like what I want.
Recursive least squares is touched upon in Ogata, pp 861-863. @Book{Ogata1987, author = {Katsuhiko Ogata}, title = {Discrete-Time Control Systems}, publisher = {Prentice-Hall}, year = 1987, address = {Englewood Cliffs, New Jersey} } These algorithms are built for speed, not robustness. They are written for online real-time systems that might have to solve many of these identification problems in under a second. As such, you won't get the nice features of things like a trimmed least squares (though weighting is covered in Ogata).
