MP-MPPI: A Motion Primitive Guided Sampling-Based Optimizer for Model Predictive Control

Marlon Mathisen, Aksel Vaaler, Olav Egeland +1

This paper proposes a novel method that extends the Model Predictive Path Integral (MPPI) method with motion primitives for additional structured sampling, which enhances the conve…

Nonparametric adaptive payload tracking for an offshore crane

Torbjørn Smith, Olav Egeland

A nonparametric adaptive controller is proposed for crane control where the payload tracks a desired trajectory with feedback from the payload position. The controller is based on…
