Hinnen, K. (author), Verhaegen, M. (author), Doelman, N. (author)Adaptive optics (AO) is used in ground-based astronomical telescopes to improve the resolution by counteracting the effects of atmospheric turbulence. Most AO systems are based on a simple control law that neglects the temporal evolution of the distortions introduced by the atmosphere. This paper presents a datadriven control design approach...journal article 2008

Hinnen, K.J.G. (author)Adaptive optics (AO) is a technique to actively correct the wavefront distortions introduced in a light beam as it propagates through a turbulent medium. Nowadays, it is commonly applied in ground-based telescopes to counteract the devastating effect of atmospheric turbulence. This thesis focuses on the control aspects of AO. Whereas most AO...doctoral thesis 2007

Hinnen, K. (author), Verhaegen, M. (author), Doelman, N. (author)Most adaptive optics systems (AO) are based on a simple control law that is unable to account for the temporal evolution of the wavefront. In this paper, a recently proposed data-driven H2-optimal control approach is demonstrated on an AO laboratory setup. The proposed control approach does not assume any form of decoupling and can therefore...conference paper 2006

Hinnen, K. (author), Doelman, N. (author), Verhaegen, M. (author)The problem of finding the closed-loop optimal controller is formulated in an H2-optimal control framework. This provides a natural way to account for the fact that in many AO systems the wavefront phase cannot be measured directly. Given a multi-variable disturbance model of both wavefront slopes and wavefront phases,3 this provides a general...conference paper 2005

Hinnen, K. (author), Verhaegen, M. (author), Doelman, N. (author)Even though the wavefront distortion introduced by atmospheric turbulence is a dynamic process, its temporal evolution is usually neglected in the adaptive optics (AO) control design. Most AO control systems consider only the spatial correlation in a separate wavefront reconstruction step. By accounting for the temporal evolution of the...conference paper 2005

Solomatine, D.P. (author), Velickov, S. (author), Bhattacharya, B. (author), Van der Wal, B. (author)The project was aimed at exploring the possibilities of a new paradigm in modelling - data-driven modelling, often referred as "data mining". Several application areas were considered: sedimentation problems in the Port of Rotterdam, automatic soil classification on the basis of cone penetration tests, prediction of water levels in the ocean,...report 2003
