MPC provides the flexibility to act while optimizing, which is essential to the solution of many engineering problems in complex plants. This complete, step-by-step exploration of various approaches to MPC introduces basic concepts of systems, modeling, and predictive control — detailing development..

Using MATLAB®  examples wherever possible, this detailed book explores the three levels of MSDF: kinematic-level fusion, including the theory of DF; fuzzy logic and decision fusion; and pixel- and feature-level image fusion. The authors elucidate DF strategies, algorithms, and performance evaluation..

This work presents approaches to modelling and control problems arising from conditions of ever increasing nonlinearity and complexity. It prescribes an approach that covers a wide range of methods being combined to provide multiple model solutions...

This text tackles newly arising theoretical and real-world challenges for stability analysis and control design. It first reviews the nonlinear small-gain theorems, and then presents novel cyclic-small-gain theorems for large-scale nonlinear dynamic networks, a cyclic-small-gain framework for nonlin..
