Abstract
Optimization based strategies for planning and feedback
control represent a general framework of numerical methods in which a
(often deterministic) model of the system under consideration and its
environment are exploited to achieve high-level goals (e.g.,
minimization of energy consumption, emission of pollutants, maximization
of throughput, etc.) as well as more specific tasks (e.g. product
quality control, robotic manipulation), while respecting a number of
constraints arising from physical, safety or performance limits.
In this seminar, I review and analyze the main concepts, successes and ongoing challenges of optimization based methods, with a particular emphasis on how uncertainties can be dealt with effectively and efficiently using disturbance estimation techniques. During the seminar, I present several examples ranging from reaction processes to robotic systems.
