Noisy K Best-Paths for Approximate Dynamic Programming with Application to Portfolio Optimization
Abstract— We describe a general method to transform a non-Markovian sequential decision problem into a supervised learning problem using a K-bestpaths algorithm. We consider an a...

On the internal dynamics of formations of unicycle robots
This paper studies a general class of formations of unicycle robots. One of the robots plays the role of the leader and the formation is induced through a constraint function F tha...

On the peaking phenomenon in the control of vehicular platoons
We investigate the peaking phenomenon in the control of large-scale vehicular platoons. These systems are of considerable practical importance as they represent an example of syst...

Using Local Trajectory Optimizers to Speed Up Global Optimization in Dynamic Programming
Dynamic programming provides a methodology to develop planners and controllers for nonlinear systems. However, general dynamic programming is computationally intractable. We have ...

Application of the proximal center decomposition method to distributed model predictive control
Abstract— In this paper we present a dual-based decomposition method, called here the proximal center method, to solve distributed model predictive control (MPC) problems for cou...
