In this work, we focus on the challenge of transferring an autonomous driving controller from simulation to the real world (i.e. Sim2Real). We propose a data-efficient method for online and on-the-fly adaptation of parametrizable control…
This paper presents a Nonlinear Model Predictive Control (NMPC) scheme targeted at motion planning for mechatronic motion systems, such as drones and mobile platforms. NMPC-based motion planning typically requires low computation times to…
This paper presents the results of developing a multi-layer Neural Network (NN) to represent diesel engine emissions and integrating this NN into control design. Firstly, a NN is trained and validated to simultaneously predict oxides of…
This article proposes a novel control architecture using a centralized nonlinear model predictive control (CNMPC) scheme for controlling multiple micro aerial vehicles (MAVs). The control architecture uses an augmented state system to…
Neural networks (NNs) have been shown to learn complex control laws successfully, often with performance advantages or decreased computational cost compared to alternative methods. Neural network controllers (NNCs) are, however, highly…
Distillation is a unit operation with multiple input parameters and multiple output parameters. It is characterized by multiple variables, coupling between input parameters, and non-linear relationship with output parameters. Therefore, it…
Commonly adopted in the manufacturing and aerospace sectors, digital twin (DT) platforms are increasingly seen as a promising paradigm to control and monitor software-based, "open", communication systems, which play the role of the physical…

This paper studies the leaderless formation flying problem with collision avoidance for a group of unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs), which requires the UAVs to navigate through cluttered environments without colliding while maintaining the…
We develop a learning-based algorithm for the distributed formation control of networked multi-agent systems governed by unknown, nonlinear dynamics. Most existing algorithms either assume certain parametric forms for the unknown dynamic…
Distillation process is a complex process of conduction, mass transfer and heat conduction, which is mainly manifested as follows: The mechanism is complex and changeable with uncertainty; the process is multivariate and strong coupling;…
A digital twin (DT), with the components of a physics-based model, a data-driven model, and a machine learning (ML) enabled efficient surrogate, behaves as a virtual twin of the real-world physical process. In terms of Laser Powder Bed…
Advanced regulatory control (ARC), also known as advanced PID architectures, is a simple and robust way of controlling processes with changing and possibly conflicting constraints, where it previously was believed - at least in academia -…
The increasing computational demand of AI workloads has intensified the need for energy-efficient in-memory and near-memory computing architectures, particularly because data movement often consumes significantly more energy than…
Multi-Rotor Aerial Vehicles (MRAVs) are increasingly used in communication-dependent missions where connectivity loss directly compromises task execution. Existing anti-jamming strategies often decouple motion from communication,…
