Preface

This monograph is intended to present a unifying theory of adaptive control, providing a theoretical framework within which all adaptive methods and iterative learning algorithms can be interpreted, understood and analyzed. The concept of the unfalsified cost level central to this theory leads to a simple framework for understanding the causes and cures for model mismatch instability. The need for an encompassing theory such as this stems from the control and stability issues of highly uncertain systems. After decades of adaptive control development, the opinions in the research community are still divided over what assumptions need and must be made about the controlled plant and its environment in order to assure stable operation, and hence resulting robustness of adaptive control algorithms. The study presented here unifies the results obtained in the last decade in developing a working theory of the safe adaptive control, that is, control with stability guarantees under a minimal knowledge of the plant and operating conditions, and as few prior assumptions as possible. We hope that the book will prove to be a helpful means to learn and understand the
