Global Control

Global control research focuses on developing strategies to manage complex systems with numerous interacting components, aiming for efficient and robust performance across diverse scenarios. Current efforts concentrate on leveraging advanced machine learning techniques, such as graph neural networks, transformers, and reinforcement learning, often within hierarchical frameworks to handle high-dimensionality and diverse data. These methods are applied to various domains, including robotics, energy management, medical image analysis, and epidemic modeling, demonstrating potential for significant improvements in efficiency, generalization, and control accuracy across diverse applications. The overarching goal is to create adaptable and effective control policies that generalize well to unseen situations and minimize the need for extensive retraining or recalibration.
