Feedback control of cerebellar learning
… In addition, Purkinje cells provide negative feedback to the IO, which is a relay for the unconditional stimulus, via the nucleo-olivary pathway. Purkinje cells can therefore regulate the intensity of the signal derived from the unconditional stimulus, which, in turn, decides subsequent …

Investigation into iterative feedback control
The Iterative Feedback Tuning (IFT) method is investigated in this dissertation, starting with the history and origin of this algorithm. The objective of this thesis was to apply the IFT algorithm to a physical system and the system chosen was a DC motor configured for speed control. The inertia of …

Nonholonomic Feedback Control Among Moving Obstacles
<p>A feedback controller is developed for navigating a nonholonomic vehicle in an area with multiple stationary and possibly moving obstacles. Among other applications the developed algorithms can be used for automatic parking of a passenger car in a parking lot with complex configuration or a …

Formation Feedback Control of UAV Flight
<p>This thesis is a study of formation control with autonomous unmanned aerial vehicles using the formation as feedback. There is also an investigation of formation methods presenting insight into different algorithms for formations. A rigid formation is achieved using a proportional-derivative …

Geometry of Feedback Control and Learning
In this thesis, we shall study optimal control problems, e.g. linear-quadratic-regulator (LQR), least squares stationary optimal control, linear quadratic (LQ) dynamic games, through the lens of first-order algorithms. The developed theories on these topics are largely derived from model-based …

Feedback control of complex oscillatory systems
… paper an approach which ensures an efficient control of such diverse systems as noisy or chaotic oscillators and neural ensembles is developed. This approach is implemented by a simple linear feedback loop. The dissertation paper consists of two main parts. One part of the work is dedicated to …

State feedback control with time delay
… with an introduction to the theory of vibration control. We broadly classify the control methods into passive and active schemes. We introduce the problem of state feedback control and provide the classical solution in the form of Ackermann formula. We then identify the limitations of the …

L1 adaptive output-feedback control architectures
… focuses on development of L1 adaptive output-feedback control. The objective is to extend the L1 adaptive control framework to a wider class of systems, as well as obtain architectures that afford more straightforward tuning. We start by considering an existing L1 adaptive output-feedback …

Evacuation Distributed Feedback Control and Abstraction
In this dissertation, we develop feedback control strategies that can be used for evacuating people. Pedestrian models are based on macroscopic or microscopic behavior. We use the macroscopic modeling approach, where pedestrians are treated in an aggregate way and detailed interactions are …

Feedback Control of Ionic Polymer Actuators
… of the hydration of the polymer. Difficulties in controlling the hydration, which changes with respect to time, results in inconsistencies in the mechanical response exhibited by the polymers during continual usage. Several physical models of ionic polymer actuators have been proposed. The …

Computer Virus Spread Containment Using Feedback Control.
… research, a security architecture based on the feedback control theory has been proposed. The first loop has been designed, developed and tested. The architecture proposes a feedback model with many controllers located at different stages of network. The controller at each stage gives feedback …

Feedback Control Theory in Stochastic Dynamical Systems
… components which includes stochastic behavior. Feedback control theory is designed to use information from the current state of the system in order to temper the final state toward the desired outcome. In this dissertation, I perform studies on two choices of classic and quantum dynamical …
