Stabilization of linear systems with unknown dynamics is a canonical problem in adaptive control. Since the lack of knowledge of system parameters can cause it to become destabilized, an adaptive stabilization procedure is needed prior to…
Proportional-Integral-Derivative (PID) control has been the workhorse of control technology for about a century. Yet to this day, designing and tuning PID controllers relies mostly on either tabulated rules (Ziegler-Nichols) or on classical…
