摘要:In this article, we present a computational model of the oculomotor system and the cerebellum. In contrast with prevailing theories of cerebellar function, we propose the cerebellum embodies adaptive internal models of all persistent, exogenous, deterministic signals acting on the body and observable through the error signals it receives. Our model is validated by simulations, recovering results from a number of oculomotor experiments.

摘要:Thanks to its versatility, its simplicity, and its fast convergence, alternating direction method of multipliers (ADMM) is among the most widely used approaches for solving a convex problem in distributed form. However, making it running efficiently is an art that requires a fine tuning of system parameters according to the specific application scenario, and which ultimately calls for a thorough understanding of the hidden mechanisms that control the convergence behavior. In this framework, we...

摘要:This article studies the controllability degree via analyzing the condition number of Gramian matrix. Our aim is to explore how the network characteristics affect the controllability degree. Specifically, we prove that a large time parameter would worsen the controllability degree. The time parameter could be understood as the network coupling strength. For directed path networks, we derive how edge weights and time parameter jointly determine the best controllability degree. Furthermore, we p...

摘要:The stabilization problem for a class of nonlinear systems is solved via a novel method inspired by back-stepping. The method, that we call underactuated back-stepping, is introduced by solving the stabilization problem for an inertia wheel pendulum and it is then developed for a class of underactuated mechanical systems. The properties of the resulting closed-loop systems are studied in detail and case studies are given to show the effectiveness of the proposed method.

摘要:The objective of this article is to introduce a novel data-driven iterative linear quadratic (LQ) control method for solving a class of nonlinear optimal tracking problems. Specifically, an algorithm is proposed to approximate the Q-factors arising from LQ stochastic optimal tracking problems. This algorithm is then coupled with iterative LQ-methods for determining local solutions to nonlinear optimal tracking problems in a purely data-driven setting. Simulation results highlight the potential...

摘要:This article addresses the problem of cooperative adaptive containment control for multiagent systems, which specifies the objective of jointly achieving containment control and accurate adaptive learning/identification of unknown system parameters. We consider a class of linear uncertain multiagent systems with multiple leaders subject to bounded unmeasurable inputs and multiple followers subject to unknown system dynamics. A novel cooperative adaptive containment control architecture is prop...

摘要:In this article, we develop a modular design method of decentralized controllers for linear dynamical network systems, where multiple subcontroller designers aim at individually regulating their local control performance with accessibility only to their respective subsystem models. First, we derive a constrained version of the Youla parameterization that characterizes all retrofit controllers for a single subcontroller, defined as an add-on-type subcontroller that manages a subsystem. The resu...

摘要:This article presents a novel learning method based on componentwise Holder continuity, which allows one to consider independently the contribution of each input to each output of the function to be learned. The method provides a bounded prediction error, and its learning property is proven. It can be used to obtain a predictor for a nonlinear robust learning-based predictive controller for constrained systems. The resulting controller achieves better closed loop performance and larger domains...

摘要:This article addresses the problem of controlling discrete-time linear time-invariant systems with parametric uncertainties in the presence of hard state and input constraints. A suitably designed gradient-descent-based indirect adaptive controller, used to handle parametric uncertainties, is combined with a model predictive control (MPC) algorithm, which guarantees constraint satisfaction. An estimated model of the actual uncertain plant is used for predictions of the future states. The param...

摘要:Competitive noncooperative online decision-making agents whose actions increase congestion of scarce resources constitute a model for widespread modern large-scale applications. To ensure sustainable resource behavior, we introduce a novel method to steer the agents toward a stable population state, fulfilling the given coupled resource constraints. The proposed method is a decentralized resource pricing method based on the resource loads resulting from the augmentation of the game's Lagrangia...
