Nonlinear tracking control enabling a dynamical system to track a desired trajectory is fundamental to robotics, serving a wide range of civil and defense applications. In control engineering, designing tracking control requires complete…

Unwanted vibrations stemming from the energy-optimized design of Delta robots pose a challenge in their operation, especially with respect to precise reference tracking. To improve tracking accuracy, this paper proposes an adaptive…

The model-free adaptive control (MFAC) law is a promising method in applications. We analyzed model-free adaptive control (MFAC) law through closed-loop function to widen its application range.

Differentially flat models are frequently used to design feedforward controllers for electromechanical systems. However, control performance depends on model accuracy, which makes feedback imperative. This paper presents a control scheme…

This paper proposes a novel real-time affordable solution to the trajectory tracking control problem for self-driving cars subject to longitudinal and steering angular velocity constraints. To this end, we develop a dual-mode Model…

This paper presents the design of a tune-free (human-out-of-the-loop parameter tuning) control framework, aiming at accelerating large scale autonomous driving system deployed on various vehicles and driving environments. The framework…

Iterative Learning Control (ILC) schemes can guarantee properties such as asymptotic stability and monotonic error convergence, but do not, in general, ensure adherence to output constraints. The topic of this paper is the design of a…

We propose model-plant mismatch learning offset-free model predictive control (MPC), which learns and applies the intrinsic model-plant mismatch, to effectively exploit the advantages of model-based and data-driven control strategies and…

In this paper, we leverage the rapid advances in imitation learning, a topic of intense recent focus in the Reinforcement Learning (RL) literature, to develop new sample complexity results and performance guarantees for data-driven Model…

Over the last few years, sampling-based stochastic optimal control (SOC) frameworks have shown impressive performances in reinforcement learning (RL) with applications in robotics. However, such approaches require a large amount of samples…

Model-Free Control (MFC) has been applied to a wide variety of systems in which it has shown its performance. MFC offers "model-free operation", but the controller design requires some information from the nominal plant. This paper…

A standard motion control with feedback of the output displacement cannot handle unforeseen contact with environment without penetrating into the soft, i.e. viscoelastic, materials or even damaging the fragile materials. Robotics and…

We consider trajectory tracking for minimum-phase nonlinear systems in Byrnes-Isidori form using the model-following control (MFC) architecture. The tracking problem is motivated by a hierarchical control concept where a higher-level…

Flow-based generative models provide strong unconditional priors for inverse problems, but guiding their dynamics for conditional generation remains challenging. Recent work casts training-free conditional generation in flow models as an…

We propose $\textit{iterative inversion}$ -- an algorithm for learning an inverse function without input-output pairs, but only with samples from the desired output distribution and access to the forward function. The key challenge is a…

Iterative learning control (ILC) is a method for reducing system tracking or estimation errors over multiple iterations by using information from past iterations. The disturbance observer (DOB) is used to estimate and mitigate disturbances…

This paper presents a pioneering approach to solving the linear quadratic regulation (LQR) and linear quadratic tracking (LQT) problems with constrained inputs using a novel off-policy continuous-time Q-learning framework. The proposed…

Linearising the dynamics of nonlinear mechanical systems is an important and open research area. A common approach is feedback linearisation, which is a nonlinear control method that transforms the input-output response of a nonlinear…

Practical design and tuning of feedback controllers has often to get by without a model of the dynamic process at hand. Only some general assumptions about the system dynamics, in this work type-one stable, can be available for engineers,…

Model-free learning-based control methods have seen great success recently. However, such methods typically suffer from poor sample complexity and limited convergence guarantees. This is in sharp contrast to classical model-based control,…
