A modified particle filter that reduces weight collapse

Shay Gilpin, Michael Herty

Particle filters are a widely used Monte Carlo based data assimilation technique that estimates the probability distribution of a system's state conditioned on observations through…

Control of Conservation Laws in the Nonlocal-to-Local Limit

Jan Friedrich, Michael Herty, Claudia Nocita

We analyze a class of control problems where the initial datum acts as a control and the state is given by the entropy solution of (local) conservation laws by a nonlocal-to-local…

Sparse control in microscopic and mean-field leader-follower models

Melanie Harms, Michael Herty, Chiara Segala +1

This work investigates the decay properties of Lyapunov functions in leader-follower systems seen as a sparse control framework. Starting with a microscopic representation, we esta…

Boundary Stabilization with restricted observability

Mapundi Kondwani Banda, Jan Friedrich, Michael Herty

Lyapunov functions are popularly used to investigate the stabilization problem of systems of hyperbolic conservation laws with boundary controls. In real life applications often no…

Fast and robust consensus-based optimization via optimal feedback control

Yuyang Huang, Michael Herty, Dante Kalise +1

We propose a variant of consensus-based optimization (CBO) algorithms, controlled-CBO, which introduces a feedback control term to improve convergence towards global minimizers of…

Kinetic models for optimization: a unified mathematical framework for metaheuristics

Giacomo Borghi, Michael Herty, Lorenzo Pareschi

Metaheuristic algorithms, widely used for solving complex non-convex and non-differentiable optimization problems, often lack a solid mathematical foundation. In this review, we ex…

Dynamics of measure-valued agents in the space of probabilities

Giacomo Borghi, Michael Herty, Andrey Stavitskiy

Motivated by the development of dynamics in probability spaces, we propose a novel multi-agent dynamic of consensus type where each agent is a probability measure. The agents move…

Exponential turnpike property for particle systems and mean-field limit

Michael Herty, Yizhou Zhou

This work is concerned with the exponential turnpike property for optimal control problems of particle systems and their mean-field limit. Under the assumption of the strict dissip…

Kinetic Theories for Metropolis Monte Carlo Methods

Michael Herty, Christian Ringhofer

We consider generalizations of the classical inverse problem to Bayesien type estimators, where the result is not one optimal parameter but an optimal probability distribution in p…
