Adaptive neural network control of discrete-time nonlinear systems
… schemes are investigated for five classes of discrete-time nonlinear systems in affine/non-affine form. The systems studied include single-input single-output nonlinear systems, multi-input multi-output nonlinear systems. For affine systems, the existence of the desired feedback controls is …

Learning control for a class of discrete-time, nonlinear systems
… even the largest and most complex of dynamical systems. The application of these control methods, though, often require extensive modelling and design effort. Recent techniques to alleviate the strain on modellers use various schemes which allow a particular system to learn about itself by …

Noise-Enabled Observability of Nonlinear Dynamic Systems Using the Empirical Observability Gramian
… understood to influence the observability of nonlinear dynamical systems, actuation of nonlinear stochastic systems by process noise has received comparatively little attention in terms of the effects on observability. As noise is present in essentially all physically instantiated systems, …

Adaptive control of nonlinear discrete-time systems and its application to control of a flexible-link manipulator
… and indirect adaptive control strategies for discrete-time nonlinear systems and to investigate the applicability of the proposed schemes to adaptive tracking control of a flexible-link manipulator. The first problem considered is indirect adaptive control of a fully as well as a partially …

Fast Adaptive Laws for Adaptive Control Under Stochastic Disturbances
… laws for the adaptive control of a class of discrete-time nonlinear systems with all states accessible perturbed by a stochastic disturbance. First, we consider high-order tuner algorithms based on accelerated gradient methods for the optimization of convex loss functions, and derive a new …

An information theoretic study of modeling and control of dynamical systems
… fundamental performance limitation in control of nonlinear systems. It consists of three coherent, closely related studies where the unifying theme is the use of information theoretic tools to investigate modeling and control issues in dynamical systems. The first study focuses on entropy based …

Discrete-time Contraction Analysis and Controller Design for Nonlinear Processes
… This warrants the development of control systems for nonlinear chemical processes to be capable of tracking time-varying setpoints to produce products with different specifications as per market demand and deal with variations in the raw materials and utility (e.g., energy). This thesis …
