On December 2, we organized a scientific seminar on “Configuration-Constrained Polytopes in Control“. Mario Eduardo Villanueva, assistant professor at Scuola IMT Alti Studi Lucca, Italy, led the seminar, which was organized in the framework of the FrontSeat project as part of the seminar series on “Research Seminar on Smart Cybernetics.”

Abstract:

This talk presents a recent breakthrough in the field of set-based computing. In particular, the focus is on a novel class of configuration-constrained polytopes that admit a joint affine parameterization of their vertices and facets. This parameterization can be used to optimize the location and geometric shapes of potentially high-dimensional polytopes with a large number of facets and vertices by relying on a large-scale linear program (LP) solver. The second part of the talk focuses on the application of such configuration-constraint polytopes in the context of set-invariance and (robust) model predictive control.

This project has received funding from the European Union’s Horizon under grant no. 101079342 (Fostering Opportunities Towards Slovak Excellence in Advanced Control for Smart Industries).
