SUMMARY:Vortrag von Prof. Colin Jones
DESCRIPTION:Prof. Colin Jones\nInstitute of Mechanical Engineering\nÉcole Polytechnique Fédérale de Lausanne\nLausanne, Switzerland&nbsp; \nTuesday 2018-04-24 14:30\n IST-Seminar Room 2.255 - Pfaffenwaldring 9 - Campus Stuttgart-Vaihingen&nbsp; \nAbstract\nThe field of fast-MPC, or the use of embedded optimization for high speed control, is a rapidly\ngrowing field in academia and increasingly in industry. Achieving the required extremely high speed\noptimization, often within micro-seconds, on low-end embedded platforms calls for a wide range of\nheuristic procedures for both the control design, as well as in the implementation of the\noptimization algorithms themselves. This semi-heuristic process leads to complex control laws that\ncan be very efficient, but that are also extremely difficult to tune and design. This talk will\nintroduce a framework for the non-conservative analysis of many of the heuristics used in these\ncontrollers via a convex sum-of-squares approach. We will then build on this framework to develop a\nformal optimal synthesis procedure for very high-speed embedded optimization-based control laws,\nand give a number of examples.&nbsp; \n&nbsp;&nbsp;\n&nbsp;&nbsp;\n&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;\n&nbsp;&nbsp;\nBiographical Information&nbsp; \nColin Jones is an Associate Professor in the Automatic Control Laboratory at the EPFL in\nSwitzerland. He was a Senior Researcher at the Automatic Control Lab at ETH Zurich until 2010 and\nobtained a Ph.D. in 2005 from the University of Cambridge for his work on polyhedral computational\nmethods for constrained control. Prior to that, he was at the University of British Columbia in\nCanada, where he took his bachelor and master degrees in Electrical Engineering and Mathematics.\nHis current research interests are in the areas of high-speed predictive control and optimization,\nas well as green energy generation, distribution and management.
