Switching Observers for Linear Systems: Beyond Individual Observability
Masoud S. Sakha, Rushikesh Kamalapurkar
This paper develops an LMI-based switching observer for linear time-invariant systems with two output channels, where only one output is available at any given time. We assume that…
Stability and Sensitivity Analysis of Relative Temporal-Difference Learning: Extended Version
Masoud S. Sakha, Rushikesh Kamalapurkar, Sean Meyn
Relative temporal-difference (TD) learning was introduced to mitigate the slow convergence of TD methods when the discount factor approaches one by subtracting a baseline from the…
On the embedding transformation for optimal control of multi-mode switched systems
Masoud S. Sakha, Rushikesh Kamalapurkar
This paper develops an embedding-based approach to solve switched optimal control problems (SOCPs) with an arbitrary number of subsystems. Initially, the discrete switching signal…
Switched Optimal Control with Dwell Time Constraints
Masoud S. Sakha, Rushikesh Kamalapurkar
This paper presents an embedding-based approach for solving switched optimal control problems (SOCPs) with dwell time constraints. At first, an embedded optimal control problem (EO…
