The problem of learning-to-control relaxation systems from data is considered. It is shown that the equi-librium of the relaxation system's step response defines the solution of a class of robust control problems and provides a good suboptimal solution to a class of linear quadratic regulator problems. These results demonstrate the potential to efficiently learn policies for these control problems from a single, easy-to-implement trajectory data point, being the step response. More broadly, these results highlight how the system structure and problem definition of the control problem can be exploited to generate data efficient learning- to-control methods.

This article describes the invention of autonomous cannabis seeding equipment to reduce contamination and planting time. The automated cannabis seeder employs an NI myRIO control board to operate a y-axis stepper motor attached to a ball screw to move along the breadth of each row of 14 seed trays. Soil drilling and burial Drill all holes at the same depth. This promotes seed germination and lowers human-seed germ contamination. These 7 soil drill heads and 7 seeders use 3D printers to design and shape the workpiece. An 800-watt air pump smokes the cannabis seeds. Linear electric motors function in two rows in the z-axis. The buffer reverses the drowning process from row 14 to the first row, starting from the 3rd row and continuing through the final series of steps until 14 rows in the y-axis are complete. The hardware controls all program activities in LabVIEW. We tested the automated cannabis seeding machine 100 times on average, sowing cannabis seeds into 98 seed trays and dropping 93 seeds at 94.80% efficiency in 10.38 minutes. A 16 percent faster machine than human work is available.

The latest EASA recommendations from 2024 indicate the possibility of using machine learning techniques in aerodrome monitoring. The aim of the work was to analyze solutions and prepare FOD (Foreign Object Debris) object detection software on aerodromes. In order to implement the issue, a dataset of photos and video recordings for testing algorithms was developed. The dataset consists of 1480 photos showing FOD at aerodromes and photos of the runway itself, according to EASA and FAA recommendations. FOD detection was implemented using a classical, k-means method and effective YOLOv5.

Solutions to optimal control problems are usually understood to provide optimal trajectories. In this paper, we show that the optimal state-space system dynamics induce a dynamics of the active sets. More specifically, given the optimal active set at the solution obtained at the current time, its successor optimal active set (which, in turn, defines the successor solution) can be found with index set operations. These operations do not involve any optimal control (or other optimization or integration) problem, but they can be described with simple rules. These rules constitute the symbolic dynamics for active sets. The present paper treats a particular constrained nonlinear problem class, extending earlier results for the constrained linear-quadratic case.

This work illustrates the use of an Active Disturbance Rejection control (ADRC) scheme for flat multivariable nonlinear systems. After a preliminary suitable dynamic extension of the system's control inputs, guided by the flatness property, we focus on the resulting input-output coupling matrix simplification that preserves the required closed-loop performance. A rather general methodology is presented that simplifies the severe nonlinearities commonly appearing in the dynamic feedback linearization control scheme; linear ADRC controllers are proposed to achieve robustness. Numerical simulations of a non-trivial rocket control example are presented; a clear simplification of the nonlinear dynamic feedback controller is achieved without compromising the performance of a rest-to-rest trajectory tracking task.

Faults on distribution networks due to abnormal weather events can lead to disruption and can cause high socio-economic losses. In line with the rising frequency of such events, the paper proposes an algorithm for the optimal deployment of mobile battery units to restore sections of the network. The considered battery units are rated at 1MVA to keep them realistic for the mobi le application. The placement algorithm is formulated as a mixed integer mathematical optimisation problem. Sectionalising / tie switches are assumed on each branch of the network in order to increase the restoration configuration flexibility. Photovoltaic systems, distributed along the network, are allowed to contribute to the restored network sections. A number of critical loads are defined and these are prioritised in the restoration process. The objective function also considers the reduction of the overall renewable energy curtailment. The performance of the algorithm is tested on the IEEE 33 bus network with four tie lines. Scenarios with increasing levels of PV power are considered and the effect of incorporating the PV power is studied.
