چکیده

The purpose of this paper is twofold: i) to introduce the sufficient statistic algebra which is responsible for propagating the sufficient statistics, or information state, in the optimal control of stochastic systems and ii) to apply certain Lie algebraic methods and gauge transformations, widely used in nonlinear control theory and quantum physics, to derive new results concerning finite-dimensional controllers. This enhances our understanding of the role played by the sufficient statistics. The sufficient statistic algebra enables us to determine a priori whether there exist finite-dimensional controllers; it also enables us to classify all finite-dimensional controllers. Relations to minimax dynamic games are delineated.

Information States in Optimal Control of Stochastic Systems: a Lie Algebraic Theoretic Approach

In this paper we introduce the suucient statistic algebra which is responsible for propagating the suucient statistic , or information state, in the optimal control of stochas-tic systems.

Coordinating a decentralized supply chain with a stochastic demand using quantity flexibility contract: a game-theoretic approach

  Supply chain includes two or more parties linked by flow of goods, information, and funds. In a decentralized system, supply chain members make decision regardless of their decision's effects on the performance of the other members and the entire supply chain. This is the key issue in supply chain management, that the mechanism should be developed in which different objectives should be align...

Optimal State Estimation for Stochastic Systems: An Information Theoretic Approach

In this paper, we examine the problem of optimal state estimation or filtering in stochastic systems using an approach based on information theoretic measures. In this setting, the traditional minimum mean-square measure is compared with information theoretic measures, Kalman filtering theory is reexamined, and some new interpretations are offered. We show that for a linear Gaussian system, the...

Stochastic stability of continuous time consensus protocols

A unified approach to studying convergence and stochastic stability of continuous time consensus protocols (CPs) is presented in this work. Our method applies to networks with directed information flow, both cooperative and noncooperative interactions, networks under weak stochastic forcing, and those whose topology and strength of connections may vary in time. The graph theoretic interpretatio...
