Physics-Guided Neural Networks for Feedforward Control: An Orthogonal Projection-Based Approach

Unknown nonlinear dynamics can limit the performance of model-based feedforward control. The aim of this paper is to develop a feedforward control framework for systems with unknown, typically nonlinear, dynamics. To address the unknown dynamics, a physics-based feedforward model is complemented by a neural network. The neural network output in...

Color Shift Failure Prediction for Phosphor-Converted White LEDs by Modeling Features of Spectral Power Distribution with a Nonlinear Filter Approach

With the expanding application of light-emitting diodes (LEDs), the color quality of white LEDs has attracted much attention in several color-sensitive application fields, such as museum lighting, healthcare lighting and displays. Reliability concerns for white LEDs are changing from the luminous efficiency to color quality. However, most of the...

Bayesian estimation for decision-directed stochastic control

Stochastic processes with a decision-directed control are considered as controlled Markov processes, the state space of which is hybrid; i.e. a product of a discrete set and a Euclidean space. This approach yields a mathematical model for many problems of decision-directed stochastic control. In general, the observations made from the "past" and...

Detection-filter representations for Markov jump diffusions

The problem considered is filtering for Gaussian observations of linear differential systems that are driven by both Wiener processes and marked Poisson point processes. Well-known representations of the MMSE-filter for such a Markov jump-diffusion are a differential for the evolution of its conditional density or differentials for all its...
