Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Adaptive control originated from the gain scheduling control of high-performance aircraft in the early 1950s. To be specific, model reference adaptive control (MRAC) was proposed by Whitaker et al. to solve the control problem of an autopilot. From the viewpoint of theory research, self-tuning control (STC) was proposed by Kalman in 1958 to deal with the optimal control of a stochastic system with unknown or time-varying parameters and then connected with actual applications in paper-making machine through the pioneering work of Astrom and Wittenmark. It is well known that identification is the most important component of an adaptive control system.
This Special Issue will explore recent technological developments in adaptive identification and control (design methods and theoretical analysis), especially for nonlinear stochastic processes such as robotic systems, manufacturing systems, transportation systems, power systems, chemical systems, etc.
Original research articles and reviews are welcome in this Special Issue. Research areas may include (but are not limited to) the following:
- Identification and self-tuning adaptive control;
- Event-triggered adaptive identification and control;
- Intelligent adaptive control;
- Robust adaptive control;
- Adaptive sliding-mode control.

Manuscript Submission Information
Manuscripts should be submitted online at www.mdpi.com by registering and logging in to this website. Once you are registered, click here to go to the submission form. Manuscripts can be submitted until the deadline. All submissions that pass pre-check are peer-reviewed. Accepted papers will be published continuously in the journal (as soon as accepted) and will be listed together on the special issue website. Research articles, review articles as well as short communications are invited. For planned papers, a title and short abstract (about 100 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for announcement on this website.
Submitted manuscripts should not have been published previously, nor be under consideration for publication elsewhere (except conference proceedings papers). All manuscripts are thoroughly refereed through a single-blind peer-review process. A guide for authors and other relevant information for submission of manuscripts is available on the Instructions for Authors page. Processes is an international peer-reviewed open access monthly journal published by MDPI.
Please visit the Instructions for Authors page before submitting a manuscript. The Article Processing Charge (APC) for publication in this open access journal is 2400 CHF (Swiss Francs). Submitted papers should be well formatted and use good English. Authors may use MDPI's English editing service prior to publication or during author revisions.
