摘要:Originating in the artificial intelligence literature, optimistic planning (OP) is an algorithm that generates near-optimal control inputs for generic nonlinear discrete-time systems whose input set is finite. This technique is, therefore, relevant for the near-optimal control of nonlinear switched systems for which the switching signal is the control, and no continuous input is present. However, OP exhibits several limitations, which prevent its desired application in a standard control engin...

摘要:This article addresses the problem of sliding-mode control (SMC) of linear uncertain systems with impulse effects. The difficulty in solving such problem lies in that the continuity property of the well-used linear sliding function is lost under the intermittent impulsive action. In order to overcome this difficulty, a piecewise linear sliding function considering the dynamics properties of impulses is introduced, which turns out to be continuous along the trajectories of the impulsive system....

摘要:In this article, simultaneous arrival to origin (SATO) convergence is defined-all state elements arriving at the origin at the same time. Accordingly, a relevant sufficient condition is proposed for SATO convergence. Based on this formulation of SATO convergence, the classical and norm-normalized (NN) sign functions are revisited. Their differences are studied with applications in sliding-mode control design. Both functions (expectedly when properly invoked) contribute to system stability, whi...

摘要:For a class of generalized Persidskii systems, whose dynamics are described by superposition of a linear part with multiple sector nonlinearities and exogenous perturbations, the conditions of practical stability, instability, and oscillatory behavior in the sense of Yakubovich are established. For this purpose, the conditions of local instability at the origin and global boundedness of solutions (practical input-to-state stability) are developed in the form of linear matrix inequalities. The ...

摘要:Many safety-critical systems, such as autonomous vehicles and service robots, must achieve high-level task specifications with performance guarantees. Much recent progress toward this goal has been made through an automatic controller synthesis from temporal logic specifications. Existing approaches, however, have been limited to relatively short and simple specifications. Furthermore, existing methods either consider some prior discretization of the state space, deal only with a convex fragme...

摘要:This article considers balanced truncation of discrete-time Hankel k-positive systems, characterized by Hankel matrices whose minors up to order k are nonnegative. Our main result shows that if the truncated system has order k or less, then it is Hankel totally positive (8-positive), meaning that it is a sum of first-order lags. This result can be understood as a bridge between two known results: the property that the first-order truncation of a positive system is positive (k = 1), and the pro...

摘要:We study a class of heterodirectional semilinear hyperbolic partial differential equations, where the distributed state vector is partially measured. An observer estimating the unmeasured part of the state vector is designed. The design is, for instance, applicable to multiphase 1-D fluid models, where the pressure is measured, but the distributed flow and phase concentrations are not. Furthermore, the observer is extended to systems with parametric uncertainties appearing in the dynamics of t...

摘要:This article studies the problem of when a globally asymptotically stabilizable nonlinear system by smooth feedback is tolerable with respect to input delay. We illustrate, by means of theoretic and practical examples, some fundamental limitations including: 1) A globally exponentially stabilizable (GES) nonlinear system may not guarantee global asymptotic stabilizability (GAS) of the nonlinear system even with an arbitrarily small input delay; 2) GAS cannot even ensure semiglobal asymptotic s...

摘要:In this article, a coalitional robust model predictive controller for tracking target sets is presented. The overall system is controlled by a set of local control agents that dynamically merge into cooperative coalitions or clusters so as to attain an efficient tradeoff between cooperation burden and global performance optimality. Within each cluster, the agents coordinate their inputs to maximize their collective performance, while considering the coupling effect with external subsystems as ...

摘要:We propose the ensemble Kalman smoother multiple distribution estimation filter (EnKS-MDEF) for nonlinear state estimation problems. The EnKS-MDEF is an example of the multiple distribution estimation filter (MDEF), which is a particle filter (PF) that estimates the filtered state probability density function (pdf) using multiple conditional state pdfs. The one step behind (OSB) smoothed state pdf used for calculating the filtered state pdf of the MDEF is approximated by the ensemble Kalman sm...
