Data-Driven Control
Overview
Challenges
With modern control (LQR, LQG, H-Infinity), we work with linear system (or linearized systems) and we develop a control law that minimize some cost function.
Challenging systems where modern control is not efficient:
- Non-linear systems
- System with unknown dynamics
- High dimensional systems
- Limited measurements or control inputs
For these kinds of systems, data-driven control seems to be a good alternative.
What is control?
It's an optimization constrained by dynamics of the system.
The optimization is easy when the system is linear and the cost function is quadratic. When the system is non-linear or when the cost function is non quadratic, the optimization becomes complicated (non closed form). Then the optimization should be rerun on the fly, which is what is done with MPC (model predictive control).
What is Machine-Learning?
Machine-learning is powerful non-linear optimization based on data.

Data Driven Models
For the problem of unknown dynamics, we can use data driven models. The goal is to collect data to generate of model of the system.
Machine Learning Control
When we use the control inputs, the system changes and the system model might be not valid anymore. The idea is to use data driven machine learning directly to learn a good controller.
Sensor and actuator placement
Use powerful optimization techniques from machine learning to learn what are good sensors and actuators.
