Sparse Linear Regression with Constraints: A Flexible Entropy-based Framework

no code implementations14 Nov 2023 Amber Srivastava, Alisina Bayati, Srinivasa Salapaka

We demonstrate the efficacy and flexibility of our proposed approach in incorporating a variety of practical constraints, that are otherwise difficult to model using the existing benchmark methods.

Once upon a time step: A closed-loop approach to robust MPC design

no code implementations20 Mar 2023 Anilkumar Parsi, Marcell Bartos, Amber Srivastava, Sebastien Gros, Roy S. Smith

A novel perspective on the design of robust model predictive control (MPC) methods is presented, whereby closed-loop constraint satisfaction is ensured using recursive feasibility of the MPC optimization.

Towards Efficient Modularity in Industrial Drying: A Combinatorial Optimization Viewpoint

no code implementations5 Oct 2022 Alisina Bayati, Amber Srivastava, Amir Malvandi, Hao Feng, Srinivasa Salapaka

The industrial drying process consumes approximately 12% of the total energy used in manufacturing, with the potential for a 40% reduction in energy usage through improved process controls and the development of new drying technologies.

Parameterized MDPs and Reinforcement Learning Problems -- A Maximum Entropy Principle Based Framework

no code implementations17 Jun 2020 Amber Srivastava, Srinivasa M. Salapaka

The central idea underlying our framework is to quantify exploration in terms of the Shannon Entropy of the trajectories under the MDP and determine the stochastic policy that maximizes it while guaranteeing a low value of the expected cost along a trajectory.

A Clustering Approach to Edge Controller Placement in Software Defined Networks with Cost Balancing

no code implementations5 Dec 2019 Reza Soleymanifar, Amber Srivastava, Carolyn Beck, Srinivasa Salapaka

In this work we introduce two novel deterministic annealing based clustering algorithms to address the problem of Edge Controller Placement (ECP) in wireless edge networks.
