Chess on Ice: Curling Tactical Decision-Making via Backward Induction and Deep Reinforcement Learning
Patrick Oberlin, Matteo Cederle, Aren Karapetyan +3
Curling is often referred to as "Chess on Ice", owing to the tactical complexity of its decision-making process. Yet unlike chess, curling remains largely underexplored from a mach…
Parallel Model Predictive Control for Deterministic Systems
Yuchao Li, Aren Karapetyan, Niklas Schmid +3
In this note, we consider infinite horizon optimal control problems with deterministic systems. Since exact solutions to these problems are often intractable, we propose a parallel…
Closed-Loop Finite-Time Analysis of Suboptimal Online Control
Aren Karapetyan, Efe C. Balta, Andrea Iannelli +1
Suboptimal methods in optimal control arise due to a limited computational budget, unknown system dynamics, or a short prediction window among other reasons. Although these methods…
On the Regret of Recursive Methods for Discrete-Time Adaptive Control with Matched Uncertainty
Aren Karapetyan, Efe C. Balta, Anastasios Tsiamis +2
Continuous-time adaptive controllers for systems with a matched uncertainty often comprise an online parameter estimator and a corresponding parameterized controller to cancel the…
Closed-loop Analysis of ADMM-based Suboptimal Linear Model Predictive Control
Anusha Srikanthan, Aren Karapetyan, Vijay Kumar +1
Many practical applications of optimal control are subject to real-time computational constraints. When applying model predictive control (MPC) in these settings, respecting timing…
Online Linear Quadratic Tracking with Regret Guarantees
Aren Karapetyan, Diego Bolliger, Anastasios Tsiamis +2
Online learning algorithms for dynamical systems provide finite time guarantees for control in the presence of sequentially revealed cost functions. We pose the classical linear qu…
