Séminaire de Gal Barkai (CRAN)

26 février 2026 @ 14h00 – 15h00 – Lien visio : Teams Titre : Between servo regulation and agreement: the consensus protocol revisited Résumé : It can be argued that control theory emerged from three engineering objectives: i) stabilize a system, ii) reject unwanted external signals, and iii) minimize the effects of uncertainty. This is the core of the classic servo-regulation problem, where controllers […]

Séminaire de Jared Miller (ETH Zurich)

12 mars 2026 @ 14h00 – 15h00 – Lien visio : Teams Titre : Structure, Analysis, and Synthesis of First-Order Algorithms Résumé : Optimization algorithms can be interpreted through the lens of dynamical systems as the interconnection of a linear system and a set of subgradient nonlinearities. This dynamical systems formulation allows for the analysis and synthesis of optimization algorithms by solving robust control problems. In […]
