Perception-Based Sampled-Data Optimization of Dynamical Systems

no code implementations18 Nov 2022 Liliaokeawawa Cothren, Gianluca Bianchin, Sarah Dean, Emiliano Dall'Anese

Moreover, we show that the interconnected system tracks the solution trajectory of the underlying optimization problem up to an error that depends on the approximation errors of the neural network and on the time-variability of the optimization problem; the latter originates from time-varying safety and performance objectives, input constraints, and unknown disturbances.

Optimization and Learning with Information Streams: Time-varying Algorithms and Applications

no code implementations17 Oct 2019 Emiliano Dall'Anese, Andrea Simonetto, Stephen Becker, Liam Madden

Approaches for the design of time-varying or online first-order optimization methods are discussed, with emphasis on algorithms that can handle errors in the gradient, as may arise when the gradient is estimated.

Inexact Online Proximal-gradient Method for Time-varying Convex Optimization

no code implementations4 Oct 2019 Amirhossein Ajalloeian, Andrea Simonetto, Emiliano Dall'Anese

The online proximal-gradient method is inexact, in the sense that: (i) it relies on an approximate first-order information of the smooth component of the cost; and, (ii) the proximal operator (with respect to the non-smooth term) may be computed only up to a certain precision.
