The majorfocus in this study is on the handling of model uncertainties andunknown inputs. In fact, the vehicle lateral model is affectedby several parameter variations such as longitudinal velocity,cornering stiffnesses coefficients and unknown inputs like windgust disturbances. Cornering stiffness parameters variation isconsidered to be unknown but bounded with known compactset. Their effect is addressed by generating intervals for theresiduals based on the zonotope representation of all possiblevalues. The developed fault detection procedure has been testedusing real driving data acquired from a prototype vehicle.Index Terms— Robust fault detection, interval models,zonotopes, set-membership, switched uncertain systems, LMIs,input-to-state stability, arbitrary switching.Peer ReviewedPostprint (author's final draft
A probabilistic interpretation of set-membership filtering: application to polynomial systems through polytopic bounding
Set-membership estimation is usually formulated in the context of set-valued
calculus and no probabilistic calculations are necessary. In this paper, we
show that set-membership estimation can be equivalently formulated in the
probabilistic setting by employing sets of probability measures. Inference in
set-membership estimation is thus carried out by computing expectations with
respect to the updated set of probability measures P as in the probabilistic
case. In particular, it is shown that inference can be performed by solving a
particular semi-infinite linear programming problem, which is a special case of
the truncated moment problem in which only the zero-th order moment is known
(i.e., the support). By writing the dual of the above semi-infinite linear
programming problem, it is shown that, if the nonlinearities in the measurement
and process equations are polynomial and if the bounding sets for initial
state, process and measurement noises are described by polynomial inequalities,
then an approximation of this semi-infinite linear programming problem can
efficiently be obtained by using the theory of sum-of-squares polynomial
optimization. We then derive a smart greedy procedure to compute a polytopic
outer-approximation of the true membership-set, by computing the minimum-volume
polytope that outer-bounds the set that includes all the means computed with
respect to P
Zonotopic fault detection observer design for Takagi–Sugeno fuzzy systems
This paper considers zonotopic fault detection observer design in the finite-frequency domain for discrete-time Takagi–Sugeno fuzzy systems with unknown but bounded disturbances and measurement noise. We present a novel fault detection observer structure, which is more general than the commonly used Luenberger form. To make the generated residual sensitive to faults and robust against disturbances, we develop a finite-frequency fault detection observer based on generalised Kalman–Yakubovich–Popov lemma and P-radius criterion. The design conditions are expressed in terms of linear matrix inequalities. The major merit of the proposed method is that residual evaluation can be easily implemented via zonotopic approach. Numerical examples are conducted to demonstrate the proposed methodPeer ReviewedPostprint (author's final draft
Robust H∞ filtering for markovian jump systems with randomly occurring nonlinearities and sensor saturation: The finite-horizon case
This article is posted with the permission of IEEE - Copyright @ 2011 IEEEThis paper addresses the robust H∞ filtering problem for a class of discrete time-varying Markovian jump systems with randomly occurring nonlinearities and sensor saturation. Two kinds of transition probability matrices for the Markovian process are considered, namely, the one with polytopic uncertainties and the one with partially unknown entries. The nonlinear disturbances are assumed to occur randomly according to stochastic variables satisfying the Bernoulli distributions. The main purpose of this paper is to design a robust filter, over a given finite-horizon, such that the H∞ disturbance attenuation level is guaranteed for the time-varying Markovian jump systems in the presence of both the randomly occurring nonlinearities and the sensor saturation. Sufficient conditions are established for the existence of the desired filter satisfying the H∞ performance constraint in terms of a set of recursive linear matrix inequalities. Simulation results demonstrate the effectiveness of the developed filter design scheme.This work was supported in part by the National Natural Science Foundation

Learning-based predictive control for linear systems: a unitary approach
A comprehensive approach addressing identification and control for
learningbased Model Predictive Control (MPC) for linear systems is presented.
The design technique yields a data-driven MPC law, based on a dataset collected
from the working plant. The method is indirect, i.e. it relies on a model
learning phase and a model-based control design one, devised in an integrated
manner. In the model learning phase, a twofold outcome is achieved: first,
different optimal p-steps ahead prediction models are obtained, to be used in
the MPC cost function; secondly, a perturbed state-space model is derived, to
be used for robust constraint satisfaction. Resorting to Set Membership
techniques, a characterization of the bounded model uncertainties is obtained,
which is a key feature for a successful application of the robust control
algorithm. In the control design phase, a robust MPC law is proposed, able to
track piece-wise constant reference signals, with guaranteed recursive
feasibility and convergence properties. The controller embeds multistep
predictors in the cost function, it ensures robust constraints satisfaction
thanks to the learnt uncertainty model, and it can deal with possibly
unfeasible reference values. The proposed approach is finally tested in a
numerical example
Optimal control design for robust fuzzy friction compensation in a robot joint
This paper presents a methodology for the compensation of nonlinear friction in a robot joint structure based on a fuzzy local modeling technique. To enhance the tracking performance of the robot joint, a dynamic model is derived from the local physical properties of friction. The model is the basis of a precompensator taking into account the dynamics of the overall corrected system by means of a minor loop. The proposed structure does not claim to faithfully reproduce complex phenomena driven by friction. However, the linearity of the local models simplifies the design and implementation of the observer, and its estimation capabilities are improved by the nonlinear integral gain. The controller can then be robustly synthesized using linear matrix inequalities to cancel the effects of inexact friction compensation. Experimental tests conducted on a robot joint with a high level of friction demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed fuzzy observer-based control strategy for tracking system trajectories when operating in zero-velocity regions and during motion reversals
