Output-Feedback Control of the Semilinear Heat Equation via the $L^2$ Residue Separation and Harmonic Inequality

A popular approach to designing finite-dimensional boundary controllers for partial differential equations (PDEs) is to decompose the PDE into independent modes and focus on the dominant ones while neglecting highly damped residual modes. However, the neglected modes can adversely affect the overall system performance, causing spillover. The $L^2$ residue separation method was recently introduced to eliminate spillover in the state-feedback control design. In this paper, we extend this method to finite-dimensional output-feedback control, where the output is contaminated by the residual modes. To deal with the output residue, we introduce a new harmonic inequality that optimally bounds it. We develop the approach for a 1D heat equation with unknown nonlinearity, where boundary temperature measurements are used to control heat flux at the opposite boundary. By exploiting the connection between $L^2$ residue separation and $H_\infty$ theory, we show that the class of admissible nonlinearities can only increase with higher controller order.

Improved residual mode separation for finite-dimensional control of PDEs: application to the Euler-Bernoulli beam

We consider a simply-supported Euler-Bernoulli beam with viscous and Kelvin--Voigt damping. Our objective is to attenuate the effect of an unknown distributed disturbance using one piezoelectric actuator. We show how to design a suitable $H_\infty$ state-feedback controller based on a finite number of dominating modes. If the remaining (infinitely many) modes are ignored, the calculated $L^2$ gain is wrong. This happens because of the spillover phenomenon that occurs when the effect of the control on truncated modes is not accounted for in the feedback design. We propose a simple modification of the $H_\infty$ cost that prevents spillover. The key idea is to treat the control as a disturbance in the truncated modes and find the corresponding $L^2$ gains using the bounded real lemma. These $L^2$ gains are added to the control weight in the $H_\infty$ cost for the dominating modes, which prevents spillover. A numerical simulation of an aluminum beam with realistic parameters demonstrates the effectiveness of the proposed method. The presented approach is applicable to other types of PDEs, such as the heat, wave, and Kuramoto-Sivashinsky equations, as well as their semilinear versions. While this work focuses on $H_\infty$ control, the same methodology can be applied to guaranteed cost control, regional stability analysis, input-to-state stability, and systems with time-varying delays, including sampled-data systems.

An analysis of full-size Russian complexly NER labelled corpus of Internet user reviews on the drugs based on deep learning and language neural nets

We present the full-size Russian complexly NER-labeled corpus of Internet user reviews, along with an evaluation of accuracy levels reached on this corpus by a set of advanced deep learning neural networks to extract the pharmacologically meaningful entities from Russian texts. The corpus annotation includes mentions of the following entities: Medication (33005 mentions), Adverse Drug Reaction (1778), Disease (17403), and Note (4490). Two of them - Medication and Disease - comprise a set of attributes. A part of the corpus has the coreference annotation with 1560 coreference chains in 300 documents. Special multi-label model based on a language model and the set of features is developed, appropriate for presented corpus labeling. The influence of the choice of different modifications of the models: word vector representations, types of language models pre-trained for Russian, text normalization styles, and other preliminary processing are analyzed. The sufficient size of our corpus allows to study the effects of particularities of corpus labeling and balancing entities in the corpus. As a result, the state of the art for the pharmacological entity extraction problem for Russian is established on a full-size labeled corpus. In case of the adverse drug reaction (ADR) recognition, it is 61.1 by the F1-exact metric that, as our analysis shows, is on par with the accuracy level for other language corpora with similar characteristics and the ADR representativnes. The evaluated baseline precision of coreference relation extraction on the corpus is 71, that is higher the results reached on other Russian corpora.

Dynamic Traffic Reconstruction using Probe Vehicles

This article deals with the observation problem in traffic flow theory. The model used is the semilinear viscous Burgers equation. Instead of using the traditional fixed sensors to estimate the state of the traffic at given points, the measurements here are obtained from Probe Vehicles (PVs). We propose then a moving dynamic boundary observer whose boundaries are defined by the trajectories of the PVs. The main result of this article is the exponential convergence of the observation error, and, in some cases, its finite-time convergence. Finally, numerical simulations show that it is possible to observe the traffic in the congested, free-flow, and mixed regimes provided that the number of PVs is large enough.

Multi-agent deployment under the leader displacement measurement: a PDE-based approach

We study the deployment of a first-order multi-agent system over a desired smooth curve in 3D space. We assume that the agents have access to the local information of the desired curve and their displacements with respect to their closest neighbors, whereas in addition a leader is able to measure his absolute displacement with respect to the desired curve. In this paper we consider the case that the desired curve is a closed C^2 curve and we assume that the leader transmit his measurement to other agents through a communication network. We start the algorithm with displacement-based formation control protocol. Connections from this ODE model to a PDE model (heat equation), which can be seen as a reduced model, are then established. The resulting closed-loop system is modeled as a heat equation with delay (due to the communication). The boundary condition is periodic since the desired curve is closed. By choosing appropriate controller gains (the diffusion coefficient and the gain multiplying the leader state), we can achieve any desired decay rate provided the delay is small enough. The advantage of our approach is in the simplicity of the control law and the conditions. Numerical example illustrates the efficiency of the method.

Sampled-data implementation of derivative-dependent control using artificial delays

We study a sampled-data implementation of linear controllers that depend on the output and its derivatives. First, we consider an LTI system of relative degree $r\ge 2$ that can be stabilized using $r-1$ output derivatives. Then, we consider PID control of a second order system. In both cases, the Euler approximation is used for the derivatives giving rise to a delayed sampled-data controller. Given a derivative-dependent controller that stabilizes the system, we show how to choose the parameters of the delayed sampled-data controller that preserves the stability under fast enough sampling. The maximum sampling period is obtained from LMIs that are derived using the Taylor's expansion of the delayed terms with the remainders compensated by appropriate Lyapunov-Krasovskii functionals. Finally, we introduce the event-triggering mechanism that may reduce the amount of sampled control signals used for stabilization.

Event-Triggered $H_\infty$ Control: a Switching Approach

Event-triggered approach to networked control systems is used to reduce the workload of the communication network. For the static output-feedback continuous event-trigger may generate an infinite number of sampling instants in finite time (Zeno phenomenon) what makes it inapplicable to the real-world systems. Periodic event-trigger avoids this behavior but does not use all the available information. In the present paper we aim to exploit the advantage of the continuous-time measurements and guarantee a positive lower bound on the inter-event times by introducing a switching approach for finding a waiting time in the event-triggered mechanism. Namely, our idea is to present the closed-loop system as a switching between the system under periodic sampling and the one under continuous event-trigger and take the maximum sampling preserving the stability as the waiting time. We extend this idea to the $L_2$-gain and ISS analysis of perturbed networked control systems with network-induced delays. By examples we demonstrate that the switching approach to event-triggered control can essentially reduce the amount of measurements to be sent through a communication network compared to the existing methods.

Controlling cluster synchronization by adapting the topology

We suggest an adaptive control scheme for the control of zero-lag and cluster synchronization in delay-coupled networks. Based on the speed-gradient method, our scheme adapts the topology of a network such that the target state is realized. It is robust towards different initial condition as well as changes in the coupling parameters. The emerging topology is characterized by a delicate interplay of excitatory and inhibitory links leading to the stabilization of the desired cluster state. As a crucial parameter determining this interplay we identify the delay time. Furthermore, we show how to construct networks such that they exhibit not only a given cluster state but also with a given oscillation frequency. We apply our method to coupled Stuart-Landau oscillators, a paradigmatic normal form that naturally arises in an expansion of systems close to a Hopf bifurcation. The successful and robust control of this generic model opens up possible applications in a wide range of systems in physics, chemistry, technology, and life science.

Adaptive synchronization in delay-coupled networks of Stuart-Landau oscillators

We consider networks of delay-coupled Stuart-Landau oscillators. In these systems, the coupling phase has been found to be a crucial control parameter. By proper choice of this parameter one can switch between different synchronous oscillatory states of the network. Applying the speed-gradient method, we derive an adaptive algorithm for an automatic adjustment of the coupling phase such that a desired state can be selected from an otherwise multistable regime. We propose goal functions based on both the difference of the oscillators and a generalized order parameter and demonstrate that the speed-gradient method allows one to find appropriate coupling phases with which different states of synchronization, e.g., in-phase oscillation, splay or various cluster states, can be selected.
