Speech Title: Integrated Learning and Adaptive Optimal Control for Connected and Autonomous Vehicles

Abstract: Based on artificial intelligence and machine learning, the adaptive optimal control of connected vehicles is an important research direction in intelligent transportation systems. This talk will explore new methods and practical applications in the field of learning-based adaptive optimal control. These methods are expected to reshape the operational paradigm of connected vehicles and autonomous driving vehicles in dealing with complex and changeable environments. We will review the core concepts of combining adaptive optimal control with reinforcement learning and explain how this fusion can produce robust and optimized control solutions.
