To conduct the system energy control, the partially averaged Ito stochastic differential equations for the energy processes are first derived by using the stochastic averaging method for quasi-Hamiltonian systems. Combining the above equations with an appropriate performance index, the proposed strategy is searching for an optimal worst-case controller by solving a stochastic differential game problem. The worst-case disturbances and the optimal controls are obtained by solving a Hamilton-Jacobi-Isaacs (HJI) equation. Numerical results for a controlled and stochastically excited DulTlng oscillator with uncertain disturbances exhibit the efficacy of the proposed control strategy.展开更多

This research paper seeks to see how the performance of the Minimax search evolves on increasing Connect-4 grid sizes. The objective of this study is to evaluate the effectiveness of the Minimax search algorithm in making optimal moves under different circumstances and to understand how well the algorithm scales. To answer this question we tested and analyzed the algorithm several times on different grid sizes with a time limit to see its performance as the complexity increases, we also looked for the average search depth for each grid size. The obtained results show that despite larger grid sizes, the Minimax search algorithm stays relatively consistent in terms of performance.展开更多
