This paper discusses the data-driven model matching problem. In particular, this paper focuses on two-degree-of-freedom control systems, and consider to design feedforward controller from input-output data. An intuitive solution to this problem would be identifying the optimal controller using data, but this does not give the exact solution to the original problem. A shaping filter is required to compensate for this gap, and the main contribution of this paper is to give the optimal shaping filter. The proposed shaping filter is constructed from available information under reasonable assumptions, and its effectiveness is shown through a numerical example and a practical experiment. The relation between the proposed shaping filter and Estimated Response Iterative Tuning (ERIT) is also discussed, and it is shown that ERIT is optimal for a special case.
In data-driven nonlinear control, optimal controllers designed from learned models are inevitably subject to model mismatch when deployed on actual systems, potentially compromising both closed-loop stability and optimality. This paper investigates how the model mismatch propagat…
Data-driven control methods, like Data-enabled Predictive Control (DeePC), are often formulated for linear systems, where the principle of superposition allows global system behavior to be inferred from locally collected data through Willems' fundamental lemma. This principle doe…
We propose a stochastic behavioral modeling framework, termed Gaussian behaviors, which augments a deterministic linear time-invariant (LTI) behavior with a Gaussian noise component. We show that this notion is a tractable subclass of stochastic behaviors and encompasses classica…
This paper presents a data-driven method for modeling the pressure response of a hydraulic clutch control circuit. The system consists of a variable-force solenoid, accumulator, pressure regulator valve, and latch valve, and exhibits nonlinear behavior caused by hysteresis, latch…
We investigate conditional invertible neural networks (cINNs) as probabilistic inverse-dynamics models for multirotor control. For a planar X8 coaxial multicopter, we learn $p(u \mid s_t, c_t)$ from an incremental nonlinear dynamic inversion (INDI) teacher using rational-quadrati…
This paper introduces a novel direct data-driven control framework based on Natural Gradient Descent (NGD) to design interpretable and robust closed-loop policies without requiring explicit model identification. We propose two data-driven NGD formulations that incorporate the clo…
