论文摘要
储层计算是预测湍流的有力工具，其简单的架构具有处理大型系统的计算效率。然而，其实现通常需要完整的状态向量测量和系统非线性知识。我们使用非线性投影函数将系统测量扩展到高维空间，然后将其输入到储层中以获得预测。我们展示了这种储层计算网络在时空混沌系统上的应用，该系统模拟了湍流的若干特征。我们表明，使用径向基函数作为非线性投影器，即使只有部分观测并且不知道控制方程，也能稳健地捕捉复杂的系统非线性。最后，我们表明，当测量稀疏、不完整且带有噪声，甚至控制方程变得不准确时，我们的网络仍然可以产生相当准确的预测，从而为实际湍流系统的无模型预测铺平了道路。
We investigate the problem of coordinating multiple automated vehicles (AVs) in confined areas. This problem can be formulated as an optimal control problem (OCP) where the motion of the AVs is optimized such that collisions are avoided in cross-intersections, merge crossings, and narrow roads. The problem is combinatorial and solving it to optimality is prohibitively difficult for all but trivial instances. For this reason, we propose a heuristic method to obtain approximate solutions. The heuristic comprises two stages: In the first stage, a Mixed Integer Quadratic Program (MIQP), similar in construction to the Quadratic Programming (QP) sub-problems in Sequential Quadratic Programming (SQP), is solved for the combinatorial part of the solution. In the second stage, the combinatorial part of the solution is held fixed, and the optimal state and control trajectories for the vehicles are obtained by solving a Nonlinear Program (NLP). The performance of the algorithm is demonstrated by a simulation of a non-trivial problem instance.
