Wahlstrom, Johan (author), Kok, M. (author)The last years have seen a growing body of literature on data-driven pedestrian inertial navigation. However, despite this, it is still unclear how to efficiently combine classical models and other a priori information with existing machine learning frameworks. In this paper, we first categorize existing approaches to data-driven pedestrian...journal article 2022

Basu, D. (author), Gholizad, B. (author), Ross, Robert (author), Gargari, Shima Mousavi (author)Elevated thermal stress-related aging is significant on the oil-impregnated paper (OIP) used as insulation in high-pressure gas cables (HPGCs). The aim of this article is to develop a cheap alternative for lab dielectric measuring and characterizing temperature-dependent parameters for OIP. First, this article derives the operating thermal...journal article 2022

(author)Direct data-driven control has attracted substantial interest since it enables optimization-based control without the need for a parametric model. This paper presents a new Instrumental Variable (IV) approach to Data-enabled Predictive Control (DeePC) that results in favorable noise mitigation properties, and demonstrates the direct equivalence...conference paper 2022

Pamososuryo, A.K. (author), Mulders, S.P. (author), Ferrari, Riccardo M.G. (author), van Wingerden, J.W. (author)The ever-increasing power capacities of wind turbines promote the use of tall and slender turbine towers. This poses a challenge from a fatigue loading perspective by the relocation of the first and lightly-damped tower side-side natural frequency into the turbine operating regime, promoting its excitation during nominal operation. The...conference paper 2022

Ananduta, W. (author), Grammatico, S. (author)We formulate the optimal flow problem in a multi-area integrated electrical and gas system as a mixed-integer optimization problem by approximating the non-linear gas flows with piece-wise affine functions, thus resulting in a set of mixed-integer linear constraints. For its solution, we propose a novel algorithm that consists in one stage for...conference paper 2022

Anil Meera, A. (author), Wisse, M. (author)The free energy principle (FEP) from neuroscience provides a framework called active inference for the joint estimation and control of state space systems, subjected to colored noise. However, the active inference community has been challenged with the critical task of manually tuning the noise smoothness parameter. To solve this problem, we...conference paper 2022

(author), Gaanderse, M.Q. (author)The spread of infectious diseases such as COVID-19 presents many challenges to healthcare systems and infrastructures across the world, exacerbating inequalities and leaving the world's most vulnerable populations at risk. Epidemiological modelling is vital to guiding evidence-informed or data-driven decision making. In forced displacement...journal article 2022

van Lagen, G. (author), Abraham, E. (author), Mohajerin Esfahani, P. (author)This article proposes an active fault isolation method for application to water distribution networks (WDNs) to localize leaks. The method relies on the classification of observed outputs to a discrete set of hypothetical faults. Due to parametric uncertainties, the outputs are random vectors that follow unknown probability distribution...journal article 2022

Zhou, Y. (author)Globalized dual heuristic programming (GDHP) is the most comprehensive adaptive critic design, which employs its critic to minimize the error with respect to both the cost-to-go and its derivatives simultaneously. Its implementation, however, confronts a dilemma of either introducing more computational load by explicitly calculating the...journal article 2022

Pustina, P. (author), Della Santina, C. (author), De Luca, Alessandro (author)The intrinsically underactuated and nonlinear nature of continuum soft robots makes the derivation of provably stable feedback control laws a challenging task. Most of the works so far circumvented the issue either by looking at coarse fully-actuated approximations of the dynamics or by imposing quasi-static assumptions. In this letter, we...journal article 2022

Pan, K. (author), Palensky, P. (author), Mohajerin Esfahani, P. (author)The main objective of this article is to develop scalable dynamic anomaly detectors with high-fidelity simulators of power systems. On the one hand, models in high-fidelity simulators are typically 'intractable' if one opts to describe them in a mathematical formulation in order to apply existing model-based approaches from the anomaly...journal article 2022

van der Ploeg, Chris (author), Silvas, Emilia (author), van de Wouw, Nathan (author), Mohajerin Esfahani, P. (author)Estimating and detecting faults is crucial in ensuring safe and efficient automated systems. In the presence of disturbances, noise, or varying system dynamics, such estimation is even more challenging. To address this challenge, this letter proposes a novel filter to estimate multiple fault signals for a class of discrete-time linear...journal article 2022
