It is often said that control and estimation problems are in duality. Recently, in (Aubin-Frankowski,2021), we found new reproducing kernels in Linear-Quadratic optimal control by focusing on the Hilbert space of controlled trajectories,…
Many high-dimensional optimisation problems exhibit rich geometric structures in their set of minimisers, often forming smooth manifolds due to over-parametrisation or symmetries. When this structure is known, at least locally, it can be…
