For an optimal control problem, one seeks to optimize a performance measure subject to a
set of dynamic, and possibly algebraic, constraints. The dynamic constraints may be …

Ordinary differential equations (ODEs) and differential-algebraic equations (DAEs) are
widely used to model control systems in engineering, natural sciences, and economy …

The control parameterization method is a popular numerical technique for solving optimal
control problems. The main idea of control parameterization is to discretize the control space …

This paper presents a Bayesian approach to the problem of searching for a single lost target
by a single autonomous sensor platform. The target may be static or mobile but not evading …

Consider a general class of constrained optimal control problems in canonical form. Using
the classical control parameterization technique, the time (planning) horizon is partitioned …

This paper describes a decentralized Bayesian approach to coordinating multiple
autonomous sensor platforms searching for a single non-evading target. In this architecture …

This paper presents a Bayesian approach to the problem of searching for multiple lost
targets in a dynamic environment by a team of autonomous sensor platforms. The probability …

An efficient algorithm, called the time-optimal switching (TOS) algorithm, is proposed for the
time-optimal switching control of nonlinear systems with a single control input. The problem …

In this paper, we consider a class of optimal discrete-valued control problems. Since the
range set of the control function is a discrete set and hence not convex. These problems are …
