| contents | In this work, we analyze the applicability of Inverse Dynamic Game (IDG) methods based on the Minimum Principle (MP). The IDG method determines unknown cost functions in a single- or multi-agent setting from observed system trajectories by minimizing the so-called residual error, i.e. the extent to which the optimality conditions of the MP are violated with a current guess of cost functions. The main assumption of the IDG method to recover cost functions such that the resulting trajectories match the observed ones is that the given trajectories are the result of a Dynamic Game (DG) problem with known parameterized cost function structures. However, in practice, when the IDG method is used to identify the behavior of unknown agents, e.g. humans, this assumption cannot be guaranteed. Hence, we introduce the notion of the trustworthiness of the residual error and provide necessary conditions for it to define when the IDG method based on the MP is applicable to such problems. From the necessary conditions, we conclude that the MP-based IDG method cannot be used to validate DG models for unknown agents but can yield under certain conditions robust parameter identifications, e.g. to measurement noise. Finally, we illustrate these conclusions by validating a DG model for the collision avoidance behavior between two mobile robots with human operators. |
