Education

Current courses:

5LMC0 Robust Control

The course offers students to learn basic and advanced approaches of robust control of continuous-time linear time-invariant systems. Besides of the theory, a significant emphasis is given on the practical application of the available robust control tools in Matlab.

2013-18 with prof. dr. S. Weiland & dr. L. Ozkan

5SC27 Machine learning for Systems and Control

The goal of this course is to provide the student with a comprehensive overview of the main off-the-shelf machine learning techniques for black-box nonlinear model identification and control, and to give the fundamental tools for practical implementation of these techniques. By taking this course, the student masters the main machine learning based modelling and control techniques for nonlinear systems, namely kernel methods, Gaussian process regression, neural networks and control policy learning methods and develops the required skills to implement them for online learning purposes.

Former courses:

Linear matrix inequalities for control

The course offers an advanced overview of the use of Linear Matrix Inequalities in systems and control for postgraduate and Phd students. The power of the LMI approach is illustrated by several fundamental robustness and performance problems in analysis and design of linear control systems.
