The paper introduces a Data-driven Hierarchical Control (DHC) structure to improve performance of systems operating under the effect of system and/or environment uncertainty. The proposed hierarchical approach consists of two parts: 1) A data-driven model identification component to learn a linear approximation between reference signals given to an existing lower-level controller and uncertain time-varying plant outputs. 2) A higher-level controller component that utilizes the identified approximation and wraps around the existing controller for the system to handle modeling errors and environment uncertainties during system deployment. We derive loose and tight bounds for the identified approximations sensitivity to noisy data. Further, we show that adding the higher-level controller maintains the original systems stability. A benefit of the proposed approach is that it requires only a small amount of observations on states and inputs, and it thus works online; that feature makes our approach appealing to robotics applications where real-time operation is critical. The efficacy of the DHC structure is demonstrated in simulation and is validated experimentally using aerial robots with approximately-known mass and moment of inertia parameters and that operate under the influence of ground effect.

Modern nonlinear control theory seeks to endow systems with properties such as stability and safety, and has been deployed successfully across various domains. Despite this success, model uncertainty remains a significant challenge in ensuring that m
odel-based controllers transfer to real world systems. This paper develops a data-driven approach to robust control synthesis in the presence of model uncertainty using Control Certificate Functions (CCFs), resulting in a convex optimization based controller for achieving properties like stability and safety. An important benefit of our framework is nuanced data-dependent guarantees, which in principle can yield sample-efficient data collection approaches that need not fully determine the input-to-state relationship. This work serves as a starting point for addressing important questions at the intersection of nonlinear control theory and non-parametric learning, both theoretical and in application. We validate the proposed method in simulation with an inverted pendulum in multiple experimental configurations.
Appropriate greenhouse temperature should be maintained to ensure crop production while minimizing energy consumption. Even though weather forecasts could provide a certain amount of information to improve control performance, it is not perfect and f
orecast error may cause the temperature to deviate from the acceptable range. To inherent uncertainty in weather that affects control accuracy, this paper develops a data-driven robust model predictive control (MPC) approach for greenhouse temperature control. The dynamic model is obtained from thermal resistance-capacitance modeling derived by the Building Resistance-Capacitance Modeling (BRCM) toolbox. Uncertainty sets of ambient temperature and solar radiation are captured by support vector clustering technique, and they are further tuned for better quality by training-calibration procedure. A case study that implements the carefully chosen uncertainty sets on robust model predictive control shows that the data-driven robust MPC has better control performance compared to rule-based control, certainty equivalent MPC, and robust MPC.
The closed-loop performance of model predictive controllers (MPCs) is sensitive to the choice of prediction models, controller formulation, and tuning parameters. However, prediction models are typically optimized for prediction accuracy instead of p
erformance, and MPC tuning is typically done manually to satisfy (probabilistic) constraints. In this work, we demonstrate a general approach for automating the tuning of MPC under uncertainty. In particular, we formulate the automated tuning problem as a constrained black-box optimization problem that can be tackled with derivative-free optimization. We rely on a constrained variant of Bayesian optimization (BO) to solve the MPC tuning problem that can directly handle noisy and expensive-to-evaluate functions. The benefits of the proposed automated tuning approach are demonstrated on a benchmark continuously stirred tank reactor example.
The cooperative control applied to vehicles allows the optimization of traffic on the roads. There are many aspects to consider in the case of the operation of autonomous vehicles on highways since there are different external parameters that can be
involved in the analysis of a network. In this paper, we present the design and simulation of adaptive control for a platoon with heterogeneous vehicles, taking into account that not all vehicles can communicate their control input, and in turn include structured nonlinear uncertainty input parameters.
Energy savings from efficiency methods in individual residential buildings are measured in 10s of dollars, while the energy savings from such measures nationally would amount to 10s of billions of dollars, leading to the tragedy of the commons effect
. The way out of this situation is via deployment of automated, integrated residential energy systems, that provide the user with a seamless, cost effective service leading to improvement of comfort and residential experience. Models are of critical importance in this context, as intelligent operating systems depend on them strongly. However, most of the currently used models of thermal behavior of buildings have high complexity leading to problems and implementation. The complexity also obscures the utilization of well know physical properties of buildings such as the thermal mass. In view of this, we investigate data-driven, simple-to-implement residential environmental models that can serve as the basis for energy saving algorithms in both retrofits and new designs of residential buildings. Despite the nonlinearity of the underlying dynamics, using Koopman operator theory framework in this study we show that a linear second order model embedding, that captures the physics that occur inside a single or multi-zone space does well when compared with data simulated using EnergyPlus. This class of models has low complexity. We show that their parameters have physical significance for the large-scale dynamics of a building and are correlated to concepts such as the thermal mass. We investigate consequences of changing the thermal mass on the energy behavior of a building system and provide best practice design suggestions.
