Distributed energy systems with prosumers require new methods for coordinating energy exchange among agents. Coalitional control provides a framework in which agents form groups to cooperatively reduce costs; however, existing bottom-up…
Decentralized control of cooperative systems captures the operation of a group of decision makers that share a single global objective. The difficulty in solving optimally such problems arises when the agents lack full observability of the…
Model predictive control (MPC) is a method to formulate the optimal scheduling problem for grid flexibilities in a mathematical manner. The resulting time-constrained optimization problem can be re-solved in each optimization time step…
A hierarchical architecture for the optimal management of an ensemble of steam generators is presented. The subsystems are coordinated by a multilayer scheme for jointly sustaining a common load. The high level optimizes the load allocation…
Model predictive control (MPC) has emerged as an effective strategy for water distribution systems (WDSs) management. However, it is hampered by the computational burden for large-scale WDSs due to the combinatorial growth of possible…
In distributed model predictive control (MPC), the control input at each sampling time is computed by solving a large-scale optimal control problem (OCP) over a finite horizon using distributed algorithms. Typically, such algorithms require…
A new distributed MPC algorithm for the regulation of dynamically coupled subsystems is presented in this paper. The current control action is computed via two robust controllers working in a nested fashion. The inner controller builds a…
This letter presents a new predictive control architecture for high-dimensional robotic systems. As opposed to a conventional Model Predictive Control (MPC) approach to locomotion that formulates a hierarchical sequence of optimization…
Deep Model Predictive Control (Deep MPC) is an evolving field that integrates model predictive control and deep learning. This manuscript is focused on a particular approach, which employs deep neural network in the loop with MPC. This…
While distributed algorithms provide advantages for the control of complex large-scale systems by requiring a lower local computational load and less local memory, it is a challenging task to design high-performance distributed control…
In distributed predictive control structures, communication among agents is required to achieve a consensus and approach an optimal global behavior. Such negotiation mechanisms are sensitive to attacks on these exchanges. This paper…
Model predictive control (MPC) for linear systems with quadratic costs and linear constraints is shown to admit an exact representation as an implicit neural network. A method to "unravel" the implicit neural network of MPC into an explicit…
In recent years, microgrids, i.e., disconnected distribution systems, have received increasing interest from power system utilities to support the economic and resiliency posture of their systems. The economics of long distance transmission…
We introduce a Model Predictive Control (MPC) framework for training deep neural networks, systematically unifying the Back-Propagation (BP) and Forward-Forward (FF) algorithms. At the same time, it gives rise to a range of intermediate…
We propose and analyse a model predictive control (MPC) strategy tailored for networks of underwater agents tasked with maintaining formation while following a shared path and using acoustic communication channels. The strategy accommodates…
We present a hierarchical model predictive control approach for large-scale systems based on dual decomposition. The proposed scheme allows coupling in both dynamics and constraints between the subsystems and generates a primal feasible…
A two-layer control architecture is proposed, which promotes scalable implementations for model predictive controllers. The top layer acts as both a reference governor for the bottom layer and as a feedback controller for the regulated…
The partitioning problem is of central relevance for designing and implementing non-centralized Model Predictive Control (MPC) strategies for large-scale systems. These control approaches include decentralized MPC, distributed MPC,…
Boolean networks are an important class of computational models for molecular interaction networks. Boolean canalization, a type of hierarchical clustering of the inputs of a Boolean function, has been extensively studied in the context of…
In this paper, we propose a novel framework for modeling and analysis of networked discrete-event systems (DES). We assume that the plant is controlled by a feedback supervisor whose control decisions are subject to communication delays and…
