Robust maximum hands-off optimal control: existence, maximum principle, and $L^{0}$-$L^1$ equivalence

2026-01-12 · Siddhartha Ganguly, Kenji Kashima arxiv

This work advances the maximum hands-off sparse control framework by developing a robust counterpart for constrained linear systems with parametric uncertainties. The resulting optimal control problem minimizes an $L^{0}$ objective subject to an uncountable, compact family of constraints, and is therefore a nonconvex, nonsmooth robust optimization problem. To address this, we replace the $L^{0}$ objective with its convex $L^{1}$ surrogate and, using a nonsmooth variant of the robust Pontryagin maximum principle, show that the $L^{0}$ and $L^{1}$ formulations have identical sets of optimal solutions -- we call this the robust hands-off principle. Building on this equivalence, we propose an algorithmic framework -- drawing on numerically viable techniques from the semi-infinite robust optimization literature -- to solve the resulting problems. An illustrative example is provided to demonstrate the effectiveness of the approach.

A Maximum Principle approach to deterministic Mean Field Games of Control with Absorption

2021-04-13 · Paulwin Graewe, Ulrich Horst, Ronnie Sircar

We study a class of deterministic mean field games on finite and infinite time horizons arising in models of optimal exploitation of exhaustible resources. The main characteristic of our game is an absorption constraint …

On Policy Stochasticity in Mutual Information Optimal Control of Linear Systems

2025-07-29 · Shoju Enami, Kenji Kashima arxiv

In recent years, mutual information optimal control has been proposed as an extension of maximum entropy optimal control. Both approaches introduce regularization terms to render the policy stochastic, and it is importan…

On Optimizing the Conditional Value-at-Risk of a Maximum Cost for Risk-Averse Safety Analysis

2021-06-01 · Margaret P. Chapman, Michael Fauss, Kevin M. Smith

The popularity of Conditional Value-at-Risk (CVaR), a risk functional from finance, has been growing in the control systems community due to its intuitive interpretation and axiomatic foundation. We consider a nonstandar…

We propose a decentralized Maximum Likelihood solution for estimating the stochastic renewable power generation and demand in single bus Direct Current (DC) MicroGrids (MGs), with high penetration of droop controlled pow…

On the existence of the maximum likelihood estimate and convergence rate under gradient descent for multi-class logistic regression

2020-12-08 · Dwight Nwaigwe, Marek Rychlik

We revisit the problem of the existence of the maximum likelihood estimate for multi-class logistic regression. We show that one method of ensuring its existence is by assigning positive probability to every class in the…
