Stochastic controlStochastic control or stochastic optimal control is a sub field of control theory that deals with the existence of uncertainty either in observations or in the noise that drives the evolution of the system. The system designer assumes, in a Bayesian probability-driven fashion, that random noise with known probability distribution affects the evolution and observation of the state variables. Stochastic control aims to design the time path of the controlled variables that performs the desired control task with minimum cost, somehow defined, despite the presence of this noise.
Marche à piedLa marche est un mode de locomotion naturel chez l'homme. Elle consiste en un déplacement en appui alternatif sur les pieds, en position debout et en ayant toujours au moins un point d'appui en contact avec le sol, sinon il s'agit de course. C'est un des principaux modes de déplacement, qui fait partie des modes dits « fatigants », « doux » ou « actifs », comme des moyens de transport tels que la bicyclette, la trottinette ou le patinage à roulettes, par opposition aux modes de transport motorisés parfois dits « passifs ».
Static electricityStatic electricity is an imbalance of electric charges within or on the surface of a material or between materials. The charge remains until it is able to move away by means of an electric current or electrical discharge. Static electricity is named in contrast with current electricity, where the electric charge flows through an electrical conductor or space, and transmits energy. A static electric charge can be created whenever two surfaces contact and or slide against each other and then separated.
Feed forward (control)A feed forward (sometimes written feedforward) is an element or pathway within a control system that passes a controlling signal from a source in its external environment to a load elsewhere in its external environment. This is often a command signal from an external operator. A control system which has only feed-forward behavior responds to its control signal in a pre-defined way without responding to the way the load reacts; it is in contrast with a system that also has feedback, which adjusts the input to take account of how it affects the load, and how the load itself may vary unpredictably; the load is considered to belong to the external environment of the system.
