Information states in stochastic control and filtering: a lie algebraic theoretic approach
(2000)The purpose of this paper is twofold: i) to introduce the sufficient statistic algebra which is responsible for propagating the sufficient statistics, or information state, in the optimal control of stochastic systems and ...

Integrated control of connection admission, flow rate, and bandwidth for ATM based networks
(1996)We consider the combined control problem of connection admission, flow rate, and bandwidth allocation (capacity, service-rate) under nonstationary conditions. A fluid flow model in state variable form describes the time ...

Modeling and control design for a computer-controlled brake system
(1997)The brake subsystem is one of the most significant parts of a vehicle with respect to safety. A computer-controlled brake system has the capability of acting faster than the human driver during emergencies, and therefore ...

Neural network control of unknown systems
(IEEE, 1998)In this paper, we show that for all unknown Multi-Input (MI) nonlinear system that affected by external disturbances, it is possible to construct a semi-global state-feedback stabilizer when the only information about the ...

A neural-networks-based adaptive disturbance rejection method and its application to the control of hard disk drives
(2009)This paper presents a neural-networks-based disturbance rejection adaptive scheme for dealing with repeatable and nonrepeatable runout simultaneously. The effectiveness of this method is demonstrated empirically on a ...

A new class of nonlinear robust adaptive controllers
(1996)Recently, a new class of adaptive control schemes, motivated from nonlinear systems theory, has been proposed for minimum phase linear time invariant plants. Under certain assumptions on the plant transfer function, these ...

Nonlinear control design for linear time varying systems
(1996)A new class of linear controllers for linear time varying systems are proposed. These controllers are based on nonlinear tools such as integrator backstepping and nonlinear damping, and on a new filter structure that ...
