Specifically, we give explicit construction formulae for the model reduction bases to satisfy different types of interpolation conditions. First, we establish the analysis for transfer function interpolation for single-input single-output structured bilinear systems. Then, we extend these results to the case of multi-input multi-output structured bilinear systems by matrix interpolation. The effectiveness of our structure-preserving approach is illustrated by means of various numerical examples.application/pdfenCreative Commons Attribution 4.0 InternationalModel reductionBilinear systemsStructure-preserving approximationStructured interpolationArticle - Refereedhttps://doi.org/10.1007/s10444-021-09863-w4731572-9044
