This book was released on 2016-04-19 with total page 198 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The goal of this work is improving existing and suggesting novel filtering algorithms for nonlinear dynamic state estimation. Nonlinearity is considered in two ways: First, propagation is improved by proposing novel methods for approximating continuous probability distributions by discrete distributions defined on the same continuous domain. Second, nonlinear underlying domains are considered by proposing novel filters that inherently take the underlying geometry of these domains into account.

This book was released on 2016-09-13 with total page 229 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: We discuss theory and application of extended object tracking. This task is challenging as sensor noise prevents a correct association of the measurements to their sources on the object, the shape itself might be unknown a priori, and due to occlusion effects, only parts of the object are visible at a given time. We propose an approach to track the parameters of arbitrary objects, which provides new solutions to the above challenges, and marks a significant advance to the state of the art.

Download or read book Discrete Networked Dynamic Systems written by Magdi S. Mahmoud and published by Academic Press. This book was released on 2020-10-22 with total page 486 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Discrete Networked Dynamic Systems: Analysis and Performance provides a high-level treatment of a general class of linear discrete-time dynamic systems interconnected over an information network, exchanging relative state measurements or output measurements. It presents a systematic analysis of the material and provides an account to the math development in a unified way. The topics in this book are structured along four dimensions: Agent, Environment, Interaction, and Organization, while keeping global (system-centered) and local (agent-centered) viewpoints. The focus is on the wide-sense consensus problem in discrete networked dynamic systems. The authors rely heavily on algebraic graph theory and topology to derive their results. It is known that graphs play an important role in the analysis of interactions between multiagent/distributed systems. Graph-theoretic analysis provides insight into how topological interactions play a role in achieving coordination among agents. Numerous types of graphs exist in the literature, depending on the edge set of G. A simple graph has no self-loop or edges. Complete graphs are simple graphs with an edge connecting any pair of vertices. The vertex set in a bipartite graph can be partitioned into disjoint non-empty vertex sets, whereby there is an edge connecting every vertex in one set to every vertex in the other set. Random graphs have fixed vertex sets, but the edge set exhibits stochastic behavior modeled by probability functions. Much of the studies in coordination control are based on deterministic/fixed graphs, switching graphs, and random graphs. This book addresses advanced analytical tools for characterization control, estimation and design of networked dynamic systems over fixed, probabilistic and time-varying graphs Provides coherent results on adopting a set-theoretic framework for critically examining problems of the analysis, performance and design of discrete distributed systems over graphs Deals with both homogeneous and heterogeneous systems to guarantee the generality of design results

Download or read book The Koopman Operator in Systems and Control written by Alexandre Mauroy and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2020-02-22 with total page 568 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book provides a broad overview of state-of-the-art research at the intersection of the Koopman operator theory and control theory. It also reviews novel theoretical results obtained and efficient numerical methods developed within the framework of Koopman operator theory. The contributions discuss the latest findings and techniques in several areas of control theory, including model predictive control, optimal control, observer design, systems identification and structural analysis of controlled systems, addressing both theoretical and numerical aspects and presenting open research directions, as well as detailed numerical schemes and data-driven methods. Each contribution addresses a specific problem. After a brief introduction of the Koopman operator framework, including basic notions and definitions, the book explores numerical methods, such as the dynamic mode decomposition (DMD) algorithm and Arnoldi-based methods, which are used to represent the operator in a finite-dimensional basis and to compute its spectral properties from data. The main body of the book is divided into three parts: theoretical results and numerical techniques for observer design, synthesis analysis, stability analysis, parameter estimation, and identification; data-driven techniques based on DMD, which extract the spectral properties of the Koopman operator from data for the structural analysis of controlled systems; and Koopman operator techniques with specific applications in systems and control, which range from heat transfer analysis to robot control. A useful reference resource on the Koopman operator theory for control theorists and practitioners, the book is also of interest to graduate students, researchers, and engineers looking for an introduction to a novel and comprehensive approach to systems and control, from pure theory to data-driven methods.
Download or read book Best Linear Unbiased Estimation Fusion with Constraints written by Keshu Zhang and published by . This book was released on 2003 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Estimation fusion, or data fusion for estimation, is the problem of how to best utilize useful information contained in multiple data sets for the purpose of estimating an unknown quantity --- a parameter or a process. Estimation fusion with constraints gives rise to challenging theoretical problems given the observations from multiple geometrically dispersed sensors: Under dimensionality constraints, how to preprocess data at each local sensor to achieve the best estimation accuracy at the fusion center? Under communication bandwidth constraints, how to quantize local sensor data to minimize the estimation error at the fusion center? Under constraints on storage, how to optimally update state estimates at the fusion center with out-of-sequence measurements? Under constraints on storage, how to apply the out-of-sequence measurements (OOSM) update algorithm to multi-sensor multi-target tracking in clutter? The present work is devoted to the above topics by applying the best linear unbiased estimation (BLUE) fusion. We propose optimal data compression by reducing sensor data from a higher dimension to a lower dimension with minimal or no performance loss at the fusion center. For single-sensor and some particular multiple-sensor systems, we obtain the explicit optimal compression rule. For a multisensor system with a general dimensionality requirement, we propose the Gauss-Seidel iterative algorithm to search for the optimal compression rule. Another way to accomplish sensor data compression is to find an optimal sensor quantizer. Using BLUE fusion rules, we develop optimal sensor data quantization schemes according to the bit rate constraints in communication between each sensor and the fusion center. For a dynamic system, how to perform the state estimation and sensor quantization update simultaneously is also established, along with a closed form of a recursion for a linear system with additive white Gaussian noise. A globally optimal OOSM update algorithm and a constrained optimal update algorithm are derived to solve one-lag as well as multi-lag OOSM update problems. In order to extend the OOSM update algorithms to multisensor multitarget tracking in clutter, we also study the performance of OOSM update associated with the Probabilistic Data Association (PDA) algorithm.

Download or read book Robust Integration of Model Based Fault Estimation and Fault Tolerant Control written by Jianglin Lan and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2020-12-11 with total page 275 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Robust Integration of Model-Based Fault Estimation and Fault-Tolerant Control is a systematic examination of methods used to overcome the inevitable system uncertainties arising when a fault estimation (FE) function and a fault-tolerant controller interact as they are employed together to compensate for system faults and maintain robustly acceptable system performance. It covers the important subject of robust integration of FE and FTC with the aim of guaranteeing closed-loop stability. The reader’s understanding of the theory is supported by the extensive use of tutorial examples, including some MATLAB®-based material available from the Springer website and by industrial-applications-based material. The text is structured into three parts: Part I examines the basic concepts of FE and FTC, providing extensive insight into the importance of and challenges involved in their integration; Part II describes five effective strategies for the integration of FE and FTC: sequential, iterative, simultaneous, adaptive-decoupling, and robust decoupling; and Part III begins to extend the proposed strategies to nonlinear and large-scale systems and covers their application in the fields of renewable energy, robotics and networked systems. The strategies presented are applicable to a broad range of control problems, because in the absence of faults the FE-based FTC naturally reverts to conventional observer-based control. The book is a useful resource for researchers and engineers working in the area of fault-tolerant control systems, and supplementary material for a graduate- or postgraduate-level course on fault diagnosis and FTC. Advances in Industrial Control reports and encourages the transfer of technology in control engineering. The rapid development of control technology has an impact on all areas of the control discipline. The series offers an opportunity for researchers to present an extended exposition of new work in all aspects of industrial control.
