ENEE 765 - Adaptive Control (and Learning Theory)

Fall 2013

Updated November 5, 2013

Course Information

Special Announcements

(5) Material pertaining to Model Reference Adaptive Control provided by emailed link.

(4) Lecture 3 notes, on basic Lyapunov stability theory, have been posted.

(3) Lecture 2, a paper and homework sets 1 and 2 are posted.

(2) I have added a link to a collection of papers which are relevant to the discussion of parameter convergence. More such links will be included for other topics.

(1) For background material on nonlinear control system analysis (especially Lyapunov Theory) used in this course click on the link to ENEE 661 (spring 2013 version) below, under . See also the references given in the course outline. We will also develop some methods of adaptive control that exploit Lie algebraic techniques (see some background material on Lie algebras and Lie groups in Lectures 0, 1, 2 of ENEE 661 and in the Other Resources section fot ENEE 661).
