Discrete Function Approximation: Numerical Tools for Nonlinear Control
نویسندگان
چکیده
We describe a method for discrete representation of continuous functions and show how this may be used for typical computations in nonlinear control design. The method involves representing functions by their values and nitely many derivatives at discrete set of points on the domain. We propose a grid structure based on a hierarchy of rectangular boxes that provides exibility in placing grid points densely in some regions and sparsely in the other. The grids possess enough structure to facilitate easy interpolation schemes based on piecewise polynomials. We illustrate the method using a simple example where we compute the feedback linearizing output of a system.

Continuous Discrete Variable Optimization of Structures Using Approximation Methods
Optimum design of structures is achieved while the design variables are continuous and discrete. To reduce the computational work involved in the optimization process, all the functions that are expensive to evaluate, are approximated. To approximate these functions, a semi quadratic function is employed. Only the diagonal terms of the Hessian matrix are used and these elements are estimated fr...

متن کاملA New High-order Takagi-Sugeno Fuzzy Model Based on Deformed Linear Models
Amongst possible choices for identifying complicated processes for prediction, simulation, and approximation applications, high-order Takagi-Sugeno (TS) fuzzy models are fitting tools. Although they can construct models with rather high complexity, they are not as interpretable as first-order TS fuzzy models. In this paper, we first propose to use Deformed Linear Models (DLMs) in consequence pa...
