Computer Programming Dynamical Systems Python (Programming Language) Tensorflow Reinforcement Learning

Job description

  • Familiarize yourself with the motion simulator setup, including mechanical design, system dynamics, and control architecture
  • Analyze the existing MPC-based motion cueing algorithm and its integrated vestibular perception model
  • Develop and implement a reinforcement learning approach to improve the MPC-based motion cueing algorithm
  • Evaluate the performance of the proposed method in simulation
  • Optional: Deploy and test the developed algorithm on the real motion simulator

Requirements

  • Master’s student in robotics, mechanical engineering, aerospace engineering, control engineering, or a related field
  • Background in control systems, robotics, or dynamic systems
  • Programming experience in Python (experience with optimization or machine learning frameworks is beneficial)
  • Interest in reinforcement learning, model predictive control, and motion simulation
  • Independent and structured working style
