Abstract

A nonlinear dynamic control system is defined by a set of equations that include a state vector and one or more control inputs. Via a machine learning method, a sub-optimal controller is derived that stabilizes the nonlinear dynamic control system at an equilibrium point. The sub-optimal controller is retrained to be used as a stabilizing controller for the nonlinear dynamic control system under general operating conditions.
