When a local optimal solution is reached with classical Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO), all particles in the swarm gather around it, and escaping from this local optima becomes...

Abstract Population-based meta-heuristics are algorithms that can obtain very good results for complex continuous optimization problems in a reduced amount of time. These search al...

In this paper, we show the optimality of a certain class of disturbance-affine control policies in the context of one-dimensional, constrained, multi-stage robust optimization. Ou...

This paper presents a new approach to shaping of the frequency response of the sensitivity function. In this approach, a desired frequency response is assumed to be specified at a...
Abstract. We formulate a robust optimal control problem for a general nonlinear system with finitely many admissible control settings and with costs assigned to switching of contro...
