An Equivalent Circuit Workflow for Unconstrained Optimization
Aayushya Agarwal, Carmel Fiscko, Soummya Kar +2
We introduce a new workflow for unconstrained optimization whereby objective functions are mapped onto a physical domain to more easily design algorithms that are robust to hyperpa…
Model-Free Learning and Optimal Policy Design in Multi-Agent MDPs Under Probabilistic Agent Dropout
Carmel Fiscko, Soummya Kar, Bruno Sinopoli
This work studies a multi-agent Markov decision process (MDP) that can undergo agent dropout and the computation of policies for the post-dropout system based on control and sampli…
Corrected: On Confident Policy Evaluation for Factored Markov Decision Processes with Node Dropouts
Carmel Fiscko, Soummya Kar, Bruno Sinopoli
In this work we investigate an importance sampling approach for evaluating policies for a structurally time-varying factored Markov decision process (MDP), i.e. the policy's value…
CANE: A Cascade-Control Approach for Network-Assisted Video QoE Management
Mehdi Hosseinzadeh, Karthick Shankar, Maria Apostolaki +4
Prior efforts have shown that network-assisted schemes can improve the Quality-of-Experience (QoE) and QoE fairness when multiple video players compete for bandwidth. However, real…
ECCO: Equivalent Circuit Controlled Optimization
Aayushya Agarwal, Carmel Fiscko, Soummya Kar +2
We propose an adaptive optimization algorithm for solving unconstrained scaled gradient flow problems that achieves fast convergence by controlling the optimization trajectory shap…
Optimal Active Fault Detection in Inverter-Based Grids
Mohammad Pirani, Mehdi Hosseinzadeh, Joshua A. Taylor +1
Ground faults in converter-based grids can be difficult to detect because, unlike in grids with synchronous machines, they often do not result in large currents. One recent strateg…
