The quality control of integrated circuit (IC) processing is becoming more and more
important as the wafer becomes larger and the feature size shrinks. However, an advanced …

The goal of having computers automatically solve problems is central to artificial
intelligence, machine learning, and the broad area encompassed by what Turing called …

In many practical distributed parameter systems (DPSs), the states of the systems are
required to track a desired trajectory repeatedly over a finite duration. It is hard to design the …

Motivated by the practical barrel-temperature control of injection molding, this paper
proposes two identification methods and a united control scheme for general temperature …

A novel method for the estimation of the temperature distribution in a rapid thermal
processing (RTP) system is developed in this paper. The proposed method uses a proper …

In this paper, the problem of observer design for a class of 1D nonlinear heat equations with
pointwise in-domain temperature measurements is addressed. A pointwise measurement …

A reinforcement learning-based boundary optimal control algorithm for parabolic distributed
parameter systems is developed in this article. First, a spatial Riccati-like equation and an …

A sliding mode control strategy is developed for temperature control of a rapid thermal
