description In the Multiple Model Control (MMC) strategies, a bank of simple local models is used to describe the behavior of complex systems with vast operation space. In this approach, the system operation space is divided into several subspaces, and in each subspace, a simple local model is assigned to describe the system behavior. This study addresses the two main challenges in this field which involve determining the optimal number of required local models to form the model bank and identifying the optimal distribution of the local models across the system operation space. Providing appropriate answers to these questions directly affects the performance of the MMC system. In this paper, GA-based automatic clustering method is suggested to form an optimal model bank. In this regard, an appropriate mapping is established between the concepts of MMC and automatic clustering, and a novel unsupervised algorithm is designed to determine the optimal model bank. Unlike the existing methods in the literature, the proposed method can form the global optimal model bank without entrapment into local optima regardless of the initial conditions of the used search algorithm. In this paper, the formation of the optimal model bank using the proposed method is investigated by considering the spacecraft attitude dynamics as a complex, MIMO, non-linear case study and its satisfactory and promising performance is demonstrated.
