      Within the machine learning framework, incremental learning of multivariate spaces is of special interest for on-line applications. In this work, the regression problem for multivariate systems is solved by implementing ...
    • On dynamical systems for sensorimotor contingencies. A first approach from control engineering 

      Angulo Bahón, Cecilio; Acevedo Valle, Juan Manuel (IOS Press, 2017)
      Text en actes de congrés
      Accés obert
      According to the sensorimotor approach, cognition is constituted by regularities in the perceptual experiences of an active and situated agent. This perspective rejects traditional inner representational models, stressing ...
    • Predictive fault tolerant control for LPV systems using model reference 

      Acevedo Valle, Juan Manuel; Puig Cayuela, Vicenç; Tornil Sin, Sebastián; Witczak, Marcin; Rotondo, Damiano (International Federation of Automatic Control (IFAC), 2015)
      Text en actes de congrés
      Accés obert
      The present work proposes a Fault Tolerant Control (FTC) methodology for non-linear discrete-time systems that can be modeled as Linear Parameter Varying (LPV) systems. The proposed approach relies on the modeling of faults ...
