Prerequisites
Basic knowledge of the control of linear time-continuous and/or time-discrete systems and/or robust control
Skills to be acquired in this module
The students identify fundamentals of uncertainty modelling in control systems as well as problem-specific methods for the consideration of uncertainty during simulation andobserver synthesis.
Professional competences

The students:

  • identify fundamentals of uncertainty modeling in control systems
  • characterize problem-specific solution techniques for systems with stochastic and set-based uncertainty
  • are aware of software implementations in simulation, control, and state estimation.

Methological competences
The students:

  • students identify fundamentals of uncertainty modelling in control systems
  • characterise problem-specific solution techniques for systems with stochastic and set-based uncertainty
  • are aware of software implementations in simulation, control, and state estimation.

Social competences
The students:

  • analyse problems of control-oriented uncertainty modelling
  • analyse fundamental solution techniques on a theoretical basis as well as transfer and generalise them independently toward novel research-oriented application scenarios.

Self competences
The students:

  • critically reflect the achieved results of their project work
  • acknowledge limitations of various approaches for a control-oriented uncertainty modeling.
Module contents
  1. Mathematical modeling of uncertainty in linear and nonlinear dynamic systems
  2. Stochastic modeling approaches
    • Probability distributions
    • Bayesian state estimation for discrete-time systems (linear/nonlinear) and for continuous-time systems (linear)
    • Linear estimation techniques in an extended state-space (Carleman linearization for special system classes)
    • Monte-Carlo methods
  3. Estimation of states, parameters and simulation of uncertain processes
    • Outlook: Markov models
    • Outlook: Bayesian networks
  4. Set-based approaches
    • Set-based algorithms: Forward-backward contractor and bisection techniques
    • Interval methods for a verified solution of ordinary differential equations and for a stability proof of uncertain systems
    • Estimation of states and parameters as well as simulation of uncertain processes
  5. Outlook: Synthesis of controllers and state observers under an explicit description of uncertainty
