Proportional integral derivative (PID) controller tuning is an area of interest for researchers in many disciplines of science and engineering. This paper presents a new algorithm...
Many applications require optimizing an unknown, noisy function that is expensive to evaluate. We formalize this task as a multiarmed bandit problem, where the payoff function is ...
