Minimum-Time Trajectory Optimization With Data-Based Models: A Linear Programming Approach

no code implementations10 Dec 2023 Nan Li, Ehsan Taheri, Ilya Kolmanovsky, Dimitar Filev

In this paper, we develop a computationally-efficient approach to minimum-time trajectory optimization using input-output data-based models, to produce an end-to-end data-to-control solution to time-optimal planning/control of dynamic systems and hence facilitate their autonomous operation.
