This report presents a new parameter estimation method for a large class of nonlinear ordinary differential systems based on center manifold theory and nonlinear Luenberger observer. A numerical simulation shows that an unknown parameter in Lorenz system is well-estimated by this estimator. Unlike the approach using chaos synchronization, the estimator design does not depend on particular property of systems.
