Oracle Complexity in Nonsmooth Nonconvex Optimization [PDF]

open access: yes, 2022
It is well-known that given a smooth, bounded-from-below, and possibly nonconvex function, standard gradient-based methods can find $\epsilon$-stationary points (with gradient norm less than $\epsilon$) in $\mathcal{O}(1/\epsilon^2)$ iterations. However,

Computation offloading scheme for RIS-empowered UAV edge network

open access: yesTongxin xuebao, 2022
In order to address the challenge of low offloading rate caused by the obstacles blocking in the links between unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) and ground users (GU) in urban scene, a partial task offloading scheme for UAV-enabled mobile edge computing with

Distributed Optimization Methods for Nonconvex Problems with Inequality Constraints over Time-Varying Networks

open access: yesComplexity, 2017
Network-structured optimization problems are found widely in engineering applications. In this paper, we investigate a nonconvex distributed optimization problem with inequality constraints associated with a time-varying multiagent network, in which each

Power Control Algorithm in Heterogeneous Network Based on Iterative Approximation [PDF]

open access: yesJisuanji gongcheng, 2018
To solve the problem of shortage of spectrum resources,a power control algorithm is proposed under the condition that the Quality of Service(QoS) of Macro-cellular User Equipment(MUE) is satisfied.It approximates the nonconvex objective function in three

Optimal Lithium‐Ion Battery—Supercapacitor Energy Storage System Capacity for Off‐Grid Intermittent Renewable Energy Mini‐Grids

open access: yesEnergy Science &Engineering, EarlyView.
Deployment of an aging‐based controller during designing of optimal lithium‐ion battery—supercapacitor (LB‐Sc) hybrid energy storage system (HESS) capacity, in off‐grid IREMGs, improves performance of the LB and reduces its aging rate. Also, annualised cost of the LB‐Sc HESS improves by 33.15% in relation to optimal LB SESS.

Robust Position Control of an Electro‐Hydraulic Actuator via Metaheuristic Optimization of a Fractional‐Order PID Controller

open access: yesInternational Journal of Mechanical System Dynamics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT In this study, a robust position control strategy is presented for a two‐stage electro‐hydraulic actuator system using a fractional‐order proportional–integral–derivative (FOPID) controller tuned by Kirchhoff's law algorithm (KLA). Electro‐hydraulic systems exhibit strong nonlinearities, parameter uncertainties, and external disturbances ...

Safeguarded Reinforcement Learning for Dynamic Environments

open access: yesOptimal Control Applications and Methods, EarlyView.
This paper uses a combination of Reinforcement Learning and Funnel Control to train a fast and safe controller for systems operating in changing environments. Furthermore, the presented formulation overcomes former limitations associated with the need for predefined reference trajectories.

Subgradient Smoothing Method for Nonsmooth Nonconvex Optimization

open access: yes, 2021
In this chapter an unconstrained nonsmooth nonconvex optimization problem is considered and a method for solving this problem is developed. In this method the subproblem for finding search directions is reduced to the unconstrained minimization of a ...

Control Design Based on Generalized Lur'e Lyapunov Functions for Sampled‐Data Lur'e Systems

open access: yesInternational Journal of Robust and Nonlinear Control, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This article addresses the synthesis of stabilizing control laws for aperiodic sampled‐data Lur'e systems. Based on a hybrid system representation of the closed‐loop system and a timer‐dependent generalized Lur'e–Postnikov type Lyapunov function, stabilization conditions are obtained by separating decision variables with the application of two
