Join in this EEE open seminar from the department's new academics.
Network-connected systems have received significant research attention over the past two decades, especially, in the domains of optimisation learning and control. Distributed algorithms have been developed aiming at facilitating decision-making at the local level while accomplishing certain global tasks through network communications. The interaction between learning and control plays an important role in achieving intelligent operation for robotic systems in challenging environment. This presentation will focus on the recent advancement in the concept of reciprocal learning and control and its application in autonomous search problems.
