报告名称：Towards Safe and Autonomous Complex Systems - A predictive control approach

报告人：德国马格德堡尊龙凯时自动控制研究所Rolf Findeisen教授。主要研究兴趣：模型预测控制、信息物理系统和机电系统控制

报告摘要：

The world is becoming increasingly connected, socially as well as technological. Formerly separately designed systems are becoming part of larger systems. They need to be designed such that an optimal, yet flexible behavior is achieved while guaranteeing safety and reliability. We outline that predictive control is well suited to tackle these challenges. It allows to take preview information of future demands and disturbances into account, while being able to satisfy constraints on states and parameters, which enables safe and reliable operation. Specifically, we present the concept of contract based predictive control, which provides means towards flexible, yet reliable hierarchical and distributed control. We furthermore outline how the concept of contract based control can be expanded to the use of models of different granularity in the predictions and how learning based approaches can be integrated. The findings will be underlined considering examples from building control and control of autonomous vehicles.

讲座名称： An Introduction to the Principles and Theory of Predictive Control

讲授人：德国马格德堡尊龙凯时自动控制研究所Rolf Findeisen教授

讲座简介：

By now predictive control has become one of the mostimportant control approaches used. Applications span from robotics, toautomatic driving, controlling systems over communication networks, up tochemical processes. In the frame of this mini course we introduce, after abrief review of optimal control theory, the basic principle behind predictivecontrol. We furthermore outline important theoretical topics, spanning fromstability, to robust predictive control in an uncertain environment, and thefusion of learning and predictive control.
