Optimal control in pandemics [PDF]

open access: yesPhysical Review E, 2021
During a pandemic, there are conflicting demands arising from public health and economic cost. Lockdowns are a common way of containing infections, but they adversely affect the economy. We study the question of how to minimise the economic damage of a lockdown while still containing infections.

Optimal Coverage Path Planning for Agricultural Vehicles with Curvature Constraints

open access: yesAgriculture, 2023
Complete coverage path planning (CCPP) is vital in mobile robot applications. Optimizing CCPP is particularly significant in precision agriculture, where it enhances resource utilization, reduces soil compaction, and boosts crop yields.

Modifications of Flower Pollination, Teacher-Learner and Firefly Algorithms for Solving Multiextremal Optimization Problems

open access: yesAlgorithms, 2022
The article offers a possible treatment for the numerical research of tasks which require searching for an absolute optimum. This approach is established by employing both globalized nature-inspired methods as well as local descent methods for ...

Low Cost Evolutionary Neural Architecture Search (LENAS) Applied to Traffic Forecasting

open access: yesMachine Learning and Knowledge Extraction, 2023
Traffic forecasting is an important task for transportation engineering as it helps authorities to plan and control traffic flow, detect congestion, and reduce environmental impact.

Optimally Controlling an Epidemic [PDF]

open access: yesSSRN Electronic Journal, 2020
We propose a exible model of infectious dynamics with a single endogenous state variable and economic choices. We characterize equilibrium, optimal outcomes, static and dynamic externalities, and prove the following: (i) A lockdown generically is followed by policies to stimulate activity.

A Novel Method for Obstacle Detection in Front of Vehicles Based on the Local Spatial Features of Point Cloud

open access: yesRemote Sensing, 2023
Obstacle detection is the primary task of the Advanced Driving Assistance System (ADAS). However, it is very difficult to achieve accurate obstacle detection in complex traffic scenes.

Reinforced optimal control

open access: yesCommunications in Mathematical Sciences, 2022
Least squares Monte Carlo methods are a popular numerical approximation method for solving stochastic control problems. Based on dynamic programming, their key feature is the approximation of the conditional expectation of future rewards by linear least squares regression.

Optimal control and inverse optimal control by distribution matching [PDF]

open access: yes2016 IEEE/RSJ International Conference on Intelligent Robots and Systems (IROS), 2016
Optimal control is a powerful approach to achieve optimal behavior. However, it typically requires a manual specification of a cost function which often contains several objectives, such as reaching goal positions at different time steps or energy efficiency.
