We introduce a numerical approximation method for estimating an unknown parameter of a (primary) chaotic system which is partially observed through a scalar time series. Specifically, we show that the recursive minimization of a suitably designed cost function that involves the dynamic state of a fully observed (secondary) system and the observed time series can lead to the identical synchronization of the two systems and the accurate estimation of the unknown parameter. The salient feature of the proposed technique is that the only external input to the secondary system is the unknown parameter which needs to be adjusted. We present numerical examples for the Lorenz system which show how our algorithm can be considerably faster than some previously proposed methods.
