A Q‐Learning Algorithm to Solve the Two‐Player Zero‐Sum Game Problem for Nonlinear Systems

International Journal of Adaptive Control and Signal Processing, Volume 39, Issue 3, Page 566-581, March 2025.
A Q‐learning algorithm to solve the two‐player zero‐sum game problem for nonlinear systems. ABSTRACT This paper deals with the two‐player zero‐sum game problem, which is a bounded L2$$ {L}_2 $$‐gain robust control problem. Finding an analytical solution to the complex Hamilton‐Jacobi‐Issacs (HJI) equation is a challenging task.

Role of induced exchange bias in zero field spin–orbit torque magnetization switching in Pt/[Ni/Co]/PtMn

AIP Advances, 2020
Current induced magnetization switching is of particular interest to develop non-volatile magnetic memories (MRAM). We studied spin–orbit torque (SOT) switching in a Pt/ferromagnet/antiferromagnet Pt/[Co/Ni]2/PtMn Hall cross. For the as-deposited sample,

Autotuning of Resonant Switched-Capacitor Converters for Zero Voltage Switching

2023 IEEE 24th Workshop on Control and Modeling for Power Electronics (COMPEL), 2023
By operating resonant switched-capacitor converters at resonance, zero current switching (ZCS) can be achieved to eliminate voltage-current overlap losses. Previous literature has shown that zero voltage switching (ZVS) can also be achieved to further reduce switching losses and attain a higher peak efficiency by recovering the charge stored in the ...

Organic Electrochemical Transistor Channel Materials: Copolymerization Versus Physical Mixing of Glycolated and Alkoxylated Polymers

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
This work discusses the use of blended channel materials in OECTs. It explores how mixing glycolated and alkoxylated polymers in various ratios offers a simpler and more efficient route to tuning OECT properties. The performance of the polymer blends is compared to the corresponding copolymers, demonstrating similar OECT characteristics, swelling ...
