Non-asymptotic Bounds of Learning-based Linear MPC With Input Constraints and Unbounded Stochastic Noise

This paper studies learning-based model predictive control (MPC) for stabilizing unknown discrete-time linear systems with hard input constraints and additive unbounded sub-Gaussian disturbances. We adopt a certainty-equivalence (CE) design that combines a switching MPC control law with online regularized least-squares (RLS) parameter estimation. The resulting switching control law blends the MPC with a saturated deadbeat controller, ensuring global closed-loop stability. Building upon non-asymptotic error bound of least-squares, we derive non-asymptotic, high-probability stability bounds for the closed-loop system under the proposed switching controller. Numerical experiments illustrate and support the theoretical findings.

Learning-based Homothetic Tube MPC with Non-Asymptotic Guarantees

This paper studies learning-based MPC for constrained stabilization of discrete-time linear systems with unknown system parameters and additive bounded disturbances. We develop a tractable homothetic-tube MPC scheme in which a high-probability parameter confidence set is generated from non-asymptotic regularized least-squares estimation, rather than assumed a priori. The resulting uncertainty set is embedded into robust tube propagation and constraint tightening, yielding a convex formulation with linear and second-order-cone constraints. We prove high-probability recursive feasibility, robust constraint satisfaction, and input-to-state stability, together with explicit non-asymptotic state bounds. A numerical example illustrates the effectiveness and theoretical guarantees.

A Fuzzy Cascaded Proportional-Derivative Controller for Under-actuated Flexible Joint Manipulators Using Bayesian Optimization

This paper proposes a novel fuzzy cascaded Proportional-Derivative (PD) controller for under-actuated single-link flexible joint manipulators. The original flexible joint system is considered as two coupled $2^{nd}$-order sub-systems. The proposed controller is composed of two cascaded PD controllers and two fuzzy logic regulators (FLRs). The first (virtual) PD controller is used to generate desired control input that stabilizes the first $2^{nd}$-order sub-system. Solving the equation by considering the coupling terms as design variables, the reference signal is generated for the second sub-system. Then through simple compensation design, together with the second PD controller, the cascaded PD controller is derived. In order to further improve the performance, two FLRs are implemented that adaptively tune the parameters of PD controllers. Under natural assumptions, the cascaded fuzzy PD controller is proved to possess locally asymptotic stability. All the offline tuning processes are completed data-efficiently by Bayesian Optimization. The results in simulation illustrate the stability and validity of our proposed method. Besides, the idea of cascaded PD controller presented here may be extended as a novel control method for other under-actuated systems, and the stability analysis renders a new perspective towards the stability proof of all other fuzzy-enhanced PID controllers.
