Policy iteration based feedback control
It is well known that stochastic control systems can be viewed as Markov decision processes (MDPs) with continuous state spaces. In this paper, we propose to apply the policy iter...

Solving Factored MDPs with Hybrid State and Action Variables
Efficient representations and solutions for large decision problems with continuous and discrete variables are among the most important challenges faced by the designers of automa...

Lexicographic perturbation for multiparametric linear programming with applications to control
Optimal control problems for constrained linear systems with a linear cost can be posed as multiparametric linear programs with a parameter in the cost, or equivalently the right-...

Unsupervised learning of echo state networks: balancing the double pole
A possible alternative to fine topology tuning for Neural Network (NN) optimization is to use Echo State Networks (ESNs), recurrent NNs built upon a large reservoir of sparsely r...

Smoothing Nonlinear Conjugate Gradient Method for Image Restoration Using Nonsmooth Nonconvex Minimization
Image restoration problems are often converted into large-scale, nonsmooth and nonconvex optimization problems. Most existing minimization methods are not efficient for solving su...
