Many practical optimal control problems include discrete decisions. These may be either time-independent parameters or time-dependent
control functions as gears or valves that can only take discrete values at any given time. While great progress has been achieved
in the solution of optimization problems involving integer variables, in particular mixed-integer linear programs, as well
as in continuous optimal control problems, the combination of the two is yet an open field of research. We consider the question
of lower bounds that can be obtained by a relaxation of the integer requirements. For general nonlinear mixed-integer programs
such lower bounds typically suffer from a huge integer gap. We convexify (with respect to binary controls) and relax the original
problem and prove that the optimal solution of this continuous control problem yields the best lower bound for the nonlinear
integer problem. Building on this theoretical result we present a novel algorithm to solve mixed-integer optimal control problems,
with a focus on discrete-valued control functions. Our algorithm is based on the direct multiple shooting method, an adaptive
refinement of the underlying control discretization grid and tailored heuristic integer methods. Its applicability is shown
by a challenging application, the energy optimal control of a subway train with discrete gears and velocity limits.

Mixed-integer optimal control problems require taking discrete and continuous control decisions for the optimization of a dynamical system. We consider dynamics governed by partial differential equations of evolution type and assess the problem by relaxation and rounding strategies. For this solution approach, we present a priori estimates for semilinear evolutions on Banach spaces concerning the optimality gap. The theoretical results show that the gap can be made arbitrary small. We demonstrate the numerical performance of the approach on benchmark problems of parabolic type motivated from thermal manufacturing and of hyperbolic type motivated from traffic flow control.

We study the numerical approximation of Neumann boundary optimal control problems governed by a class of quasilinear elliptic equations. The coefficients of the main part of the operator depend on the state function, as a consequence the state equation is not monotone. We prove that strict local minima of the control problem can be approximated uniformly by local minima of discrete control problems and we also get an estimate of the rate of this convergence. One of the main issues in this study is the error analysis of the discretization of the state and adjoint state equations. Some difficulties arise due to the lack of uniqueness of solution of the discrete equations. The theoretical results are illustrated by numerical tests. 相似文献

In this contribution, a model for the spatiotemporal dynamics of a thermal-coating process is derived from first principles (the conservation of energy). The model is a dynamical system consisting of a system of hyperbolic, partial differential equations (PDEs), describing the evolution of the temperature distribution of the substrate. By studying the C 0- semigroup generated by the system operator we find that in discrete time the infinite-dimensional plant may conveniently be represented by finite-dimensional operators defined on appropriately chosen Euclidean spaces. This representation provides the basis for numerical efficient solution of several optimal feedforward control problems associated with set point changes and launching of the process. Numerical and experimental studies highlight the value of this approach. 相似文献

We consider time discrete systems which are described by a system of difference equations. The related discrete optimal control problems are introduced. Additionally, a gametheoretic extension is derived, which leads to general multicriteria decision problems. The characterization of their optimal behavior is studied. Given starting and final states define the decision process; applying dynamic programming techniques suitable optimal solutions can be gained. We generalize that approach to a special gametheoretic decision procedure on networks. We characterize Nash equilibria and present sufficient conditions for their existence. A constructive algorithm is derived. The sufficient conditions are exploited to get the algorithmic solution. Its complexity analysis is presented and at the end we conclude with an extension to the complementary case of Pareto optima.Dmitrii Lozovanu was Supported by BGP CRDF-MRDA MOM2-3049-CS-03. 相似文献

This paper studies the problem of synthesizing control policies for uncertain continuous-time nonlinear systems from linear temporal logic (LTL) specifications using model-based reinforcement learning (MBRL). Rather than taking an abstraction-based approach, we view the interaction between the LTL formula’s corresponding Büchi automaton and the nonlinear system as a hybrid automaton whose discrete dynamics match exactly those of the Büchi automaton. To find satisfying control policies, we pose a sequence of optimal control problems associated with states in the accepting run of the automaton and leverage control barrier functions (CBFs) to prevent specification violation. Since solving many optimal control problems for a nonlinear system is computationally intractable, we take a learning-based approach in which the value function of each problem is learned online in real-time. Specifically, we propose a novel off-policy MBRL algorithm that allows one to simultaneously learn the uncertain dynamics of the system and the value function of each optimal control problem online while adhering to CBF-based safety constraints. Unlike related approaches, the MBRL method presented herein decouples convergence, stability, and safety, allowing each aspect to be studied independently, leading to stronger safety guarantees than those developed in related works. Numerical results are presented to validate the efficacy of the proposed method. 相似文献

Infinite horizon optimal control problems with multiple thermostatic hybrid dynamics 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
We study an optimal control problem for a hybrid system exhibiting several internal switching variables whose discrete evolutions are governed by some delayed thermostatic laws. By the dynamic programming technique we prove that the value function is the unique viscosity solution of a system of several Hamilton-Jacobi equations, suitably coupled. The method involves a contraction principle and some suitably adapted results for exit-time problems with discontinuous exit cost. 相似文献

In this paper we study a special class of multiobjective discrete control problems on dynamic networks. We assume that the dynamics of the system is controlled by p actors (players) and each of them intend to minimize his own integral-time cost by a certain trajectory. Applying Nash and Pareto optimality principles we study multiobjective control problems on dynamic networks where the dynamics is described by a directed graph.Polynomial-time algorithms for determining the optimal strategies of the players in the considered multiobjective control problems are proposed exploiting the special structure of the underlying graph. Properties of time-expanded networks are characterized. A constructive scheme which consists of several algorithms is presented. 相似文献
