Abstract— In this paper, we consider a class of continuoustime, continuous-space stochastic optimal control problems. Building upon recent advances in Markov chain approximation ...
We consider an optimal control problem governed by an ODE with memory playing the role of a control. We show the existence of an optimal solution and derive some necessary optimal...
This paper presents a new method for solving a class of infinite horizon nonlinear optimal control problems. In this method, first the original optimal control problem is transfor...
In recent papers it has been suggested that human locomotion may be modeled as an inverse optimal control problem. In this paradigm, the trajectories are assumed to be solutions of...
A mathematical model for cancer treatment that includes immunological activity is considered as an optimal control problem. In the uncontrolled system there exist both a region of ...

We study the stochastic model for bioremediation in a bioreactor with ideal mixing. The dynamics of the examined system is described by stochastic differential equations. We consid...
Optimal control problems in batch distillation involve finding a trajectory for the reflux ratio so as to maximize a performance index. Then the controller is asked to follow this...
This paper considers trajectory planning problems for autonomous robots in information gathering tasks. The objective of the planning is to maximize the information gathered withi...

A class of optimal control problem for a semilinear elliptic partial differential equation with control constraints is considered. It is well known that sufficient second-order con...
