%0 Journal Article %T Model Reduction of Linear Switched Systems by Restricting Discrete Dynamics %A Mert Bastug %A Mihaly Petreczky %A Rafael Wisniewski %A John Leth %J Computer Science %D 2014 %I arXiv %X We present a procedure for reducing the number of continuous states of discrete-time linear switched systems, such that the reduced system has the same behavior as the original system for a subset of switching sequences. The proposed method is expected to be useful for abstraction based control synthesis methods for hybrid systems. %U http://arxiv.org/abs/1409.1444v2
