Building Temperature Control by Simple MPC-Like Feedback Laws Learned from Closed-Loop Data
نویسندگان
چکیده
We show how to synthesize simple, yet well-performing feedback strategies that mimic the behavior of optimization-based controllers, such as those based on model predictive control (MPC). The approach is based on employing regression trees to derive dependence of real-valued control inputs on measurements. Quality of classical regression policies is improved by finding, simultaneously, optimal affine splits and optimal local affine regressors. We furthermore illustrate how to refine the local regressors such that the overall feedback strategy guarantees satisfaction of input constraints. The main advantage of the proposed regressionbased control strategy stems from its fast implementation even on very simple hardware. The approach is demonstrated on a case study that assumes control of temperature in a one-zone building. Here, the data used in the learning process are generated by MPC. We show that the simple feedback law attains almost the same level of performance as the complex MPC controller.

This paper focuses on the effects of closed- control on the calculation of the dynamic load carrying capacity (DLCC) for mobile-base flexible-link manipulators. In previously proposed methods in the literature of DLCC calculation in flexible robots, an open-loop control scheme is assumed, whereas in reality, robot control is achieved via closed loop approaches which could render the calculated ...

This paper considers the problem of adaptive output feedback tracking control for a class of nonstrict-feedback nonlinear systems with unknown time-varying delays and unknown backlash-like hysteresis. Fuzzy logic systems are used to estimate the unknown nonlinear functions. Based on the Lyapunov–Krasovskii method, the control scheme is constructed by using the backstepping and adaptive techniqu...
متن کاملStabilizing polynomial approximation of explicit MPC
A given explicit piecewise affine representation of an MPC feedback law is approximated by a single polynomial, computed using linear programming. This polynomial state feedback control law guarantees closed-loop stability and constraint satisfaction. The polynomial feedback can be implemented in real time even on very simple devices with severe limitations on memory storage.
