Stochasticity in Feedback Loops; Great Expectations and Guaranteed Ruin
Roy S. Smith, Bassam Bamieh
Stochastic feedback systems give rise to a variety of notions of stability. The conditions for the stability of the median, mean, and variance stability conditions differ. These co…
Robust Adaptive Model Predictive Control with Worst-Case Cost
Anilkumar Parsi, Andrea Iannelli, Mingzhou Yin +2
A robust adaptive model predictive control (MPC) algorithm is presented for linear, time invariant systems with unknown dynamics and subject to bounded measurement noise. The syste…
Region of attraction analysis of nonlinear stochastic systems using Polynomial Chaos Expansion
Eva Ahbe, Andrea Iannelli, Roy S. Smith
A method is presented to estimate the region of attraction (ROA) of stochastic systems with finite second moment and uncertainty-dependent equilibria. The approach employs Polynomi…
Structured exploration in the finite horizon linear quadratic dual control problem
Andrea Iannelli, Mohammad Khosravi, Roy S. Smith
This paper presents a novel approach to synthesize dual controllers for unknown linear time-invariant systems with the tasks of optimizing a quadratic cost while reducing the uncer…
Scalable Power System Line Upgrade Planning With Policy Constraints: A "Branch and Benders" Approach
Sandro Merkli, Roy S. Smith
The integration of more renewable energy sources into the power system is presenting system operators with various challenges. At the distribution system level, voltage magnitudes…
Nonlinear Control of Quadcopters via Approximate Dynamic Programming
Angel Romero, Paul N. Beuchat, Yvonne R. Stürz +2
While Approximate Dynamic Programming has successfully been used in many applications involving discrete states and inputs such as playing the games of Tetris or chess, it has not…
