Max-Plus Methods for Nonlinear Control and Estimation

The control and estimation of continuous-time/continuous-space nonlinear systems continues to be a challenging problem, and this is one of the c- tral foci of this book. A common approach is to use dynamic programming; this typically leads to solution of the control or estimation problem via the solution of a corresponding Hamilton–Jacobi (HJ) partial di?erential eq- tion (PDE). This approach has ...
