Model Predictive Path Integral PID Control for Learning-Based Path Following

Description

Classical proportional--integral--derivative (PID) control is widely employed in industrial applications; however, achieving higher performance often motivates the adoption of model predictive control (MPC). Although gradient-based methods are the standard for real-time optimization, sampling-based approaches have recently gained attention. In particular, model predictive path integral (MPPI) control enables gradient-free optimization and accommodates non-differentiable models and objective func
