| Popis: | Thesis: S.M., Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Department of Mechanical Engineering, May, 2020 Cataloged from the PDF version of thesis. Includes bibliographical references (pages 73-76). A deep reinforcement learning (DRL) approach for tracking control of an optical fiber drawing process is developed and evaluated. The DRL-based control is capable of regulating the fiber diameter to track either steady or varying reference trajectories in the presence of stochasticity and non-linear delayed dynamics of the system. With about 3.5 hours of real-time training, it outperformed other control models such as open-loop control, proportional-integral (PI) control, and quadratic dynamic matrix control (QDMC) in terms of diameter error. It does not require analytical or numerical model of the system dynamics unlike model-based approaches such as linear-quadratic regulator (LQR) or model predictive control (MPC). It can also track reference trajectories that it has never experienced in the training process.¹ by Sangwoon Kim. S.M. S.M.
