We establish a collection of closed-loop guarantees and propose a scalable optimization algorithm for distributionally robust model predictive control (DRMPC) applied to linear systems, convex constraints, and quadratic costs. Via standard…
The stability analysis of model predictive control schemes without terminal constraints and/or costs has attracted considerable attention during the last years. We pursue a recently proposed approach which can be used to determine a…
In distributed model predictive control (DMPC), where a centralized optimization problem is solved in distributed fashion using dual decomposition, it is important to keep the number of iterations in the solution algorithm, i.e. the amount…
Suboptimal methods in optimal control arise due to a limited computational budget, unknown system dynamics, or a short prediction window among other reasons. Although these methods are ubiquitous, their transient performance remains…
For an infinite-horizon continuous-time optimal stopping problem under non-exponential discounting, we look for an optimal equilibrium, which generates larger values than any other equilibrium does on the entire state space. When the…
We propose a simple and computationally efficient approach for designing a robust Model Predictive Controller (MPC) for constrained uncertain linear systems. The uncertainty is modeled as an additive disturbance and an additive error on the…
We adopt an optimal-control framework for addressing the undiscounted infinite-horizon discrete-time restless $N$-armed bandit problem. Unlike most studies that rely on constructing policies based on the relaxed single-armed Markov Decision…
This paper addresses the problem of robust and optimal control for the class of nonlinear quadratic systems subject to norm-bounded parametric uncertainties and disturbances, and in presence of some amplitude constraints on the control…
In this paper, we investigate discounted economic model predictive control (E-MPC) schemes without terminal conditions in scenarios where the optimal operating behavior is a periodic orbit. For such a setting, it is known that a linearly…
We propose adaptation strategies to modify the standard constrained model predictive controller scheme in order to guarantee a certain lower bound on the degree of suboptimality. Within this analysis, the length of the optimization horizon…
This paper presents a complementary approach to establish stability of finite receding horizon control with a terminal cost. First a new augmented stage cost is defined by rotating the terminal cost. Then a one-step optimisation problem is…
This study focuses on the problem of optimal mismatched disturbance rejection control for uncontrollable linear discrete-time systems. In contrast to previous studies, by introducing a quadratic performance index such that the regulated…
The present work addresses a finite-horizon linear-quadratic optimal control problem for uncertain systems driven by piecewise constant controls. The precise values of the system parameters are unknown, but assumed to belong to a finite set…
We investigate the suboptimality resulting from the application of nominal model predictive control (MPC) to a nonlinear discrete time stochastic system. The suboptimality is defined with respect to the corresponding stochastic optimal…
This paper describes the structure of optimal policies for discounted periodic-review single-commodity total-cost inventory control problems with fixed ordering costs for finite and infinite horizons. There are known conditions in the…
Model predictive control (MPC) is pervasive in research and industry. However, designing the cost function and the constraints of the MPC to maximize closed-loop performance remains an open problem. To achieve optimal tuning, we propose a…
This paper proposes a differentiable linear quadratic Model Predictive Control (MPC) framework for safe imitation learning. The infinite-horizon cost is enforced using a terminal cost function obtained from the discrete-time algebraic…
In this paper, we analyze an economic model predictive control scheme with terminal region and cost, where the system is optimally operated in a certain subset of the state space. The predictive controller operates with a cyclic horizon,…
We propose a framework for suboptimal model predictive control (MPC) based on the interconnection of monotone dynamical systems, such as port-Hamiltonian systems. In contrast to classical MPC formulations, where the optimizer is treated as…
Model predictive control (MPC) has shown great success for controlling complex systems such as legged robots. However, when closing the loop, the performance and feasibility of the finite horizon optimal control problem (OCP) solved at each…
