Data-driven control
Custom courseRecommended further reading
Techniques that are aspirig to be
labelled with the trendy "data-driven control" label have typically
quite a few things in common with some techniques and concepts from the
more traditional field of adaptive control. The overlap is not 100% because some adaptive control schemes can be actually based on models; similarly, some data-driven methods are not adapting online. Still, it seems worth to have a look at this field too.
A classical (although a bit dated now) reference for adaptive control is
- Astrom, Karl J., and Bjorn Wittenmark. Adaptive Control. Subsequent edition. Reading, Mass: Addison-Wesley, 1994.

A bit more recent overview is given in
- Ioannou, Petros, and Barış Fidan. Adaptive Control Tutorial. Advances in Design and Control. Philadelphia, PA: Society for Industrial and Applied Mathematics, 2007.

Yet another relatively recent monograph is
- Hovakimyan, Naira. L1 Adaptive Control Theory: Guaranteed Robustness with Fast Adaptation. Advances in Design and Control. SIAM, 2010.

which is focused on one particular approach to (l1-)optimal design of robust adaptive controllers.
Finally one cynical/sarcastic note: there might be a reason why the research in adaptive control is nowadays labelled by some other names than just "adaptive control". See the the detailed analyses of the major accident associated with adaptive control - the fatal accident of NASA X-15-3 experimental aircraft on November 16, 1967:
