Probabilistic inequality constraints in stochastic optimal control theory

Stochastic optimal control theory

Control theory is a mathematical description of how to act optimally to gain future rewards. In this paper I give an introduction to deterministic and stochastic control theory; partial observability, learning and the combined problem of inference and control. Subsequently, I discuss a class of non-linear stochastic control problems that can be efficiently solved using a path integral. In this ...

Numerical method for solving optimal control problem of the linear differential systems with inequality constraints

In this paper, an efficient method for solving optimal control problems of the linear differential systems with inequality constraint is proposed. By using new adjustment of hat basis functions and their operational matrices of integration, optimal control problem is reduced to an optimization problem. Also, the error analysis of the proposed method is nvestigated and it is proved that the orde...

Optimal Control under Stochastic Target Constraints

We study a class of Markovian optimal stochastic control problems in which the controlled process Z is constrained to satisfy an a.s. constraint Z(T ) ∈ G ⊂ R P − a.s. at some final time T > 0. When the set is of the form G := {(x, y) ∈ R × R : g(x, y) ≥ 0}, with g non-decreasing in y, we provide a Hamilton-Jacobi-Bellman characterization of the associated value function. It gives rise to a sta...

Optimality Of Monetary And Fiscal Policies In Iran: An Application Of The Stochastic Optimal Control Theory

Optimal Control with Fuzzy Chance Constraints

In this paper, a model of an optimal control problem with chance constraints is introduced. The parametersof the constraints are fuzzy, random or fuzzy random variables. Todefuzzify the constraints, we consider possibility levels.  Bychance-constrained programming the chance constraints are converted to crisp constraints which are neither fuzzy nor stochastic and then the resulting classical op...
