contents In this paper, we derive a novel procedure for set-membership estimation of dynamical systems affected by stochastic noise with unbounded support. Employing a bound on the sample covariance matrix, we are able to provide a finite- sample uncertainty set containing the true system parameters with high probability. Our approach can be natively applied to a wide class of nonlinear systems affected by sub-Gaussian noise. Our analysis provides conditions under which the proposed uncertainty set converges to the true system parameters and establishes an upper bound on the convergence rate. The proposed uncertainty set can be used directly for robust controller synthesis with probabilistic stability and performance guarantees. Concluding numerical examples demonstrate the advantages of the proposed formulation over established approaches.
