The American Control Conference (ACC) 2025 took place on July 8–10, 2025 at the Sheraton Denver Downtown Hotel, with workshops held on July 7. Organized annually by the American Automatic Control Council (AACC), ACC is one of the flagship events in the field of automatic control and the U.S. member conference of the International Federation for Automatic Control (IFAC).
Set against the stunning backdrop of the Rocky Mountains, Denver offered an inspiring environment for researchers and practitioners to exchange ideas. The city’s unique combination of urban culture and natural beauty created the perfect atmosphere for scientific dialogue, networking, and collaboration.
FrontSeat contributions
The FrontSeat project was represented at ACC 2025 by two contributions from our colleagues:
Juraj Holaza (Slovak University of Technology in Bratislava) presented the paper Introducing Implicit Tube Model Predictive Control to MPT+: Efficient Design for Large-Scale Systems (co-authored by Erika Pavlovičová, Juraj Holaza, Lenka Galčíková, and Juraj Oravec). The work introduces new features into the MPT+ toolbox, enabling scalable implicit tube-based MPC design.
Martin Klaučo (Slovak University of Technology in Bratislava & Czech Technical University in Prague, Department of Control Engineering) presented the paper Nearly-optimal explicit NMPC Control Law Generated by Reinforcement Machine Learning (co-authored by Patrik Valábel, Karol Kiš, Martin Kalúz, and Martin Klaučo). The contribution focuses on combining reinforcement learning with nonlinear MPC to generate efficient explicit control laws.
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).
