This chapter deals with the stabilization of a class of linear time-varying parabolic partial differential equations employing receding horizon control (RHC). Here, RHC is finite-dimensional, i.e., it enters as a time-depending linear…
In recent years, Wasserstein Distributionally Robust Optimization (DRO) has garnered substantial interest for its efficacy in data-driven decision-making under distributional uncertainty. However, limited research has explored the…
In this work, we study how to ensure probabilistic safety for nonlinear systems under distributional ambiguity. Our approach builds on a backup-based safety filtering framework that switches between a high-performance nominal policy and a…
The present work is concerned with the stabilization of a general class of time-varying linear parabolic equations by means of a finite-dimensional receding horizon control (RHC). The stability and suboptimality of the unconstrained…
We study the problem of mixed $\mathit{H}_2/\mathit{H}_\infty$ control in the infinite-horizon setting. We identify the optimal causal controller that minimizes the $\mathit{H}_2$ cost of the closed-loop system subject to an…
This paper presents a state and state-input constrained variant of the discrete-time iterative Linear Quadratic Regulator (iLQR) algorithm, with linear time-complexity in the number of time steps. The approach is based on a projection of…
We consider exact deterministic mixed-integer programming (MIP) reformulations of distributionally robust chance-constrained programs (DR-CCP) with random right-hand sides over Wasserstein ambiguity sets. The existing MIP formulations are…
This paper considers a risk-constrained infinite-horizon optimal control problem and proposes to solve it in an iterative manner. Each iteration of the algorithm generates a trajectory from the starting point to the target equilibrium state…
Regularization is a central tool for addressing ill-posedness in inverse problems and statistical estimation, with the choice of a suitable penalty often determining the reliability and interpretability of downstream solutions. While recent…
We consider a minimax problem motivated by distributionally robust optimization (DRO) when the worst-case distribution is continuous, leading to significant computational challenges due to the infinite-dimensional nature of the optimization…
Adversarially robust optimization (ARO) has emerged as the *de facto* standard for training models that hedge against adversarial attacks in the test stage. While these models are robust against adversarial attacks, they tend to suffer…
We study the distributed Linear Quadratic Gaussian (LQG) control problem in discrete-time and finite-horizon, where the controller depends linearly on the history of the outputs and it is required to lie in a given subspace, e.g. to possess…
We study deterministic, discrete linear time-invariant systems with infinite-horizon discounted quadratic cost. It is well-known that standard stabilizability and detectability properties are not enough in general to conclude stability…
We consider policy gradient algorithms for the indefinite least squares stationary optimal control, e.g., linear-quadratic-regulator (LQR) with indefinite state and input penalization matrices. Such a setup has important applications in…
This brief note aims to introduce the recent paradigm of distributional robustness in the field of shape and topology optimization. Acknowledging that the probability law of uncertain physical data is rarely known beyond a rough…
We revisit in this paper the discrete-time linear quadratic regulator (LQR) problem from the perspective of receding-horizon policy gradient (RHPG), a newly developed model-free learning framework for control applications. We provide a…
Distributional linear quadratic regulator (LQR) is a new framework that integrates the distributional reinforcement learning and classical LQR, which offers a new way to study the random return instead of the expected cost. Unlike iterative…
The paper is concerned with the coherent quantum Linear Quadratic Gaussian (CQLQG) control problem for time-varying quantum plants governed by linear quantum stochastic differential equations over a bounded time interval. A controller is…
We study a variety of Wasserstein distributionally robust optimization (WDRO) problems where the distributions in the ambiguity set are chosen by constraining their Wasserstein discrepancies to the empirical distribution. Using the notion…
Precise control under uncertainty requires a good understanding and characterization of the noise affecting the system. This paper studies the problem of steering state distributions of dynamical systems subject to partially known…
