Researchers have developed a new method called Iterative Feedback Tuning (IFT) to optimize model-free control parameters, particularly for automotive electronic throttle valves. This technique uses stochastic gradient descent to adjust controller parameters based on error measurements from closed-loop experiments. However, the study found that friction and stiction in real-world valves introduce biases into the gradient estimates, leading to suboptimal performance and drift in update rules. Different optimization algorithms like Adam and Gauss-Newton showed varying effectiveness depending on the noise structure of the gradient, with Adam outperforming Gauss-Newton on a valve with noisy gradients but drifting on a valve with consistent gradients.
