Predictive Control with Learning-Based Terminal Costs Using Approximate Value Iteration

Francisco Moreno-Mora, Lukas Beckenbach, Stefan Streif

Stability under model predictive control (MPC) schemes is frequently ensured by terminal ingredients. Employing a (control) Lyapunov function as the terminal cost constitutes a com…

A stabilizing reinforcement learning approach for sampled systems with partially unknown models

Lukas Beckenbach, Pavel Osinenko, Stefan Streif

Reinforcement learning is commonly associated with training of reward-maximizing (or cost-minimizing) agents, in other words, controllers. It can be applied in model-free or model-…

Approximate infinite-horizon predictive control

Lukas Beckenbach, Stefan Streif

Predictive control is frequently used for control problems involving constraints. Being an optimization based technique utilizing a user specified so-called stage cost, performance…

Performance bounds of adaptive MPC with bounded parameter uncertainties

Francisco Moreno-Mora, Lukas Beckenbach, Stefan Streif

Model predictive control is a control approach that minimizes a stage cost over a predicted system trajectory based on a model of the system and is capable of handling state and in…

On performance bound estimation in NMPC with time-varying terminal cost

Lukas Beckenbach, Stefan Streif

Model predictive control (MPC) schemes are commonly designed with fixed, i.e., time-invariant, horizon length and cost functions. If no stabilizing terminal ingredients are used, s…

A reinforcement learning method with closed-loop stability guarantee

Pavel Osinenko, Lukas Beckenbach, Thomas Göhrt +1

Reinforcement learning (RL) in the context of control systems offers wide possibilities of controller adaptation. Given an infinite-horizon cost function, the so-called critic of R…

Model Predictive Control of a Food Production Unit: A Case Study for Lettuce Production

Murali Padmanabha, Lukas Beckenbach, Stefan Streif

Plant factories with artificial light are widely researched for food production in a controlled environment. For such control tasks, models of the energy and resource exchange in t…

Model predictive control with stage cost shaping inspired by reinforcement learning

Lukas Beckenbach, Pavel Osinenko, Stefan Streif

This work presents a suboptimality study of a particular model predictive control with a stage cost shaping based on the ideas of reinforcement learning. The focus of the suboptima…

Practical sample-and-hold stabilization of nonlinear systems under approximate optimizers

Pavel Osinenko, Lukas Beckenbach, Stefan Streif

It is a known fact that not all controllable systems can be asymptotically stabilized by a continuous static feedback. Several approaches have been developed throughout the last de…
