Interval Algorithm for Inequality Constrained Discrete Minimax Problems

An interval algorlthm for inequality coustrained discrete minimax problems is described, in which the constrained and objective functions are C1 functions. First, based on the penalty function methods, we trans form this problem to unconstrained optimization. Second, the interval extensions of the penalty functions and the test rules of region deletion are discussed. At last, we design an interval algorithm with the bisection rule of Moore. The algorithm provides bounds on both the minimax value and the localization of the minimax points of the problem. Numerical results show that algorithm is reliable and efficiency.

Event-Triggered Finite-Time H∞ Filtering for Discrete-Time Nonlinear Stochastic Systems

This paper addresses the problem of event-triggered finite-time H∞ filter design for a class of discrete-time nonlinear stochastic systems with exogenous disturbances. The stochastic Lyapunov-Krasoviskii functional method is adopted to design a filter such that the filtering error system is stochastic finite-time stable (SFTS) and preserves a prescribed performance level according to the pre-defined event-triggered criteria. Based on stochastic differential equations theory, some sufficient conditions for the existence of H∞ filter are obtained for the suggested system by employing linear matrix inequality technique. Finally, the desired H∞ filter gain matrices can be expressed in an explicit form.

Robust Stability and Stabilization of Discrete Singular Systems with Interval Time-varying Delay and Linear Fractional Uncertainty

The robust stability and robust stabilization problems for discrete singular systems with interval time-varying delay and linear fractional uncertainty are discussed. A new delay-dependent criterion is established for the nominal discrete singular delay systems to be regular, causal and stable by employing the linear matrix inequality （LMI） approach. It is shown that the newly proposed criterion can provide less conservative results than some existing ones. Then, with this criterion, the problems of robust stability and robust stabilization for uncertain discrete singular delay systems are solved, and the delay-dependent LMI conditions are obtained. Finally, numerical examples are given to illustrate the effectiveness of the proposed approach.

Robust H_∞ control for discrete-time polytopic uncertain systems with linear fractional vertices

The robust H∞ control problem for discrete-time uncertain systems is investigated in this paper. The uncertain systems are modelled as a polytopic type with linear fractional uncertainty in the vertices. A new linear matrix inequality (LMI) characterization of the H∞ performance for discrete systems is given by introducing a matrix slack variable which decouples the matrix of a Lyapunov function candidate and the parametric matrices of the system. This feature enables one to derive sufficient conditions for discrete uncertain systems by using parameter-dependent Lyapunov functions with less conservativeness. Based on the result, H∞ performance analysis and controller design are carried out. A numerical example is included to demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed results.

Robust Sliding-mode Filtering for a Class of Uncertain Nonlinear Discrete-time State-delayed Systems

This paper is concerned with the problem of robust sliding-mode filtering for a class of uncertain nonlinear discrete-time systems with time-delays. The nonlinearities are assumed to satisfy global Lipschitz conditions and parameter uncertainties are supposed to reside in a polytope. The resulting filter is of the Luenberger type with the discontinuous form. A sufficient condition with delay-dependency is proposed for existence of such a filter. And the desired filter can be found by solving a set of matrix inequalities. The resulting filter adapts for the systems whose noise input is real functional bounded and not be required to be energy bounded. A numerical example is given to illustrate the effectiveness of the proposed design method.
