Neural critic learning with accelerated value iteration for nonlinear model predictive control.

In practical industrial processes, the receding optimization solution of nonlinear model predictive control (NMPC) is always a very knotty problem. Based on adaptive dynamic programming, the accelerated value iteration predictive control (AVI-PC) algorithm is developed in this paper. Integrating iteration learning with the receding horizon mechanism of NMPC, a novel receding optimization solution pattern is exploited to resolve the optimal control law in each prediction horizon. Besides, the basic architecture and the specific form of the AVI-PC algorithm are demonstrated, including the relationship among the iterative learning process, the prediction process, and the control process. On this basis, the convergence and admissibility conditions are established, and the relevant properties are comprehensively analyzed when the accelerated factor satisfies the established conditions. Furthermore, the accelerated value iterative function is approximated through the single critic network constructed by utilizing the multiple linear regression method. Finally, the plentiful simulation experiments are conducted from various perspectives to verify the effectiveness and progressiveness of the AVI-PC algorithm. Copyright © 2024 Elsevier Ltd.
