About this ebook

Reliable Non-Parametric Techniques for Energy System Operation and Control: Fundamentals and Applications of Constraint Learning and Safe Reinforcement Learning Methods, a new Volume in the Advances in Intelligent Energy Systems, is a comprehensive guide to modern smart methods in energy system operation and control. This book covers fundamental concepts and applications in both deterministic and uncertain environments. It addresses the challenge of accuracy in imbalanced datasets and the limitations of measurements. The book delves into advanced topics such as safe reinforcement learning for energy system control, including training-efficient intrinsic-motivated reinforcement learning, and physical layer-based control, and more. Other chapters cover barrier function-based control and CVaR-based control for systems without hard operation constraints. Designed for graduate students, researchers, and engineers, this book stands out for its practical approach to advanced methods in energy system control, enabling sustainable developments in real-world conditions. - Bridges the gap between theory and practice, providing essential insights for graduate students, researchers, and engineers - Includes visual elements, data and code, and case studies for easy understanding and implementation - Provides the latest release in the Advances in Intelligent Energy Systems series, bringing together the latest innovations in smart, sustainable energy
