A Contraction-constrained Model Predictive Control for Multi-timescale Nonlinear Processes
Ryan McCloy, Lai Wei, Jie Bao
Many chemical processes exhibit diverse timescale dynamics with a strong coupling between timescale sensitive variables. Model predictive control with a non-uniformly spaced optimi…
Contraction Analysis and Control Synthesis for Discrete-time Nonlinear Processes
Lai Wei, Ryan McCloy, Jie Bao
Shifting away from the traditional mass production approach, the process industry is moving towards more agile, cost-effective and dynamic process operation (next-generation smart…
Online Estimation and Coverage Control with Heterogeneous Sensing Information
Andrew McDonald, Lai Wei, Vaibhav Srivastava
Heterogeneous multi-robot sensing systems are able to characterize physical processes more comprehensively than homogeneous systems. Access to multiple modalities of sensory data a…
Control Contraction Metric Synthesis for Discrete-time Nonlinear Systems
Lai Wei, Ryan Mccloy, Jie Bao
Flexible manufacturing has been the trend in the area of the modern chemical process nowadays. One of the essential characteristics of flexible manufacturing is to track time-varyi…
Discrete-time Contraction-based Control of Nonlinear Systems with Parametric Uncertainties using Neural Networks
Lai Wei, Ryan McCloy, Jie Bao
In response to the continuously changing feedstock supply and market demand for products with different specifications, the processes need to be operated at time-varying operating…
Nonstationary Stochastic Multiarmed Bandits: UCB Policies and Minimax Regret
Lai Wei, Vaibhav Srivastava
We study the nonstationary stochastic Multi-Armed Bandit (MAB) problem in which the distribution of rewards associated with each arm are assumed to be time-varying and the total va…
