On the Regret of Recursive Methods for Discrete-Time Adaptive Control with Matched Uncertainty
<|reference_start|>On the Regret of Recursive Methods for Discrete-Time Adaptive Control with Matched Uncertainty: Continuous-time adaptive controllers for systems with a matched uncertainty often comprise an online parameter estimator and a corresponding parameterized controller to cancel the uncertainty. However, such methods are often unimplementable, as they depend on an unobserved estimation error. We consider the equivalent discrete-time setting with a causal information structure. We propose a novel, online proximal point method-based adaptive controller, that under a weak persistence of excitation (PE) condition is asymptotically stable and achieves finite regret, scaling only with the time required to fulfill the PE condition. We show the same also for the widely-used recursive least squares with exponential forgetting controller under a stronger PE condition.<|reference_end|>
