Multidimensional global extremum seeking via the DIRECT optimisation algorithm

Khong, Sei Zhen LU ; Nešić, Dragan ; Manzie, Chris and Tan, Ying (2013) In Automatica 49(7).
Abstract
DIRECT is a sample-based global optimisation method for Lipschitz continuous functions defined over compact multidimensional domains. This paper adapts the DIRECT method with a modified termination criterion for global extremum seeking control of multivariable dynamical plants. Finite-time semi-global practical convergence is established based on a periodic sampled-data control law, whose sampling period is a parameter which determines the region and accuracy of convergence. A crucial part of the development is dedicated to a robustness analysis of the DIRECT method against bounded additive perturbations on the objective function. Extremum seeking involving multiple units is also considered within the same context as a means to increase... (More)
