Global finite-time observers for a class of nonlinear systems

Yunyan Li, Yanjun Shen, Xiao Hua Xia (2013)

Kybernetika

Similarity:

Global finite-time observers are designed for a class of nonlinear systems with bounded varying rational powers imposed on the increments of the nonlinearities whose solutions exist and are unique for all positive time. The global finite-time observers designed in this paper are with two homogeneous terms. The global finite-time convergence of the observation error system is achieved by combining global asymptotic stability and local finite-time stability.

Optimal stationary policies inrisk-sensitive dynamic programs with finite state spaceand nonnegative rewards

Rolando Cavazos-Cadena, Raúl Montes-de-Oca (2000)

Applicationes Mathematicae

Similarity:

This work concerns controlled Markov chains with finite state space and nonnegative rewards; it is assumed that the controller has a constant risk-sensitivity, and that the performance ofa control policy is measured by a risk-sensitive expected total-reward criterion. The existence of optimal stationary policies isstudied within this context, and the main resultestablishes the optimalityof a stationary policy achieving the supremum in the correspondingoptimality equation, whenever the...
