Summary: We briefly discuss an abstract approximation framework and a convergence theory of parameter estimation for a general class of nonautonomous nonlinear evolution equations. A detailed discussion of the above theory has been given earlier by the authors in another paper. The application of this theory, together with numerical results indicating the feasibility of this general least squares approach, are presented in the context of quasilinear reaction diffusion equations.
