13h40–14h00 — Amphi Gaston Planté, B2.33 (L2S) An approach for safe learning-based Model Predictive Control Anas Makdesi (L2S) Abstract. In this talk, I will introduce a novel approach to safe learning-based Model Predictive Control (MPC) for nonlinear systems. The approach relies on computing from data sampled from a given system, two models. The first one […]
