Abstract
Proportional-integral-derivative(PID) control underlies >95% of automation across many industries including high-radix optical circuit switches based on PID-controlled piezoelectric-actuator-based beam steering. To meet performance metric requirements (switching speed and actuator stability for optical switches) PID control requires three parameters to be optimally tuned (aka PID tuning). Typical PID tuning methods involve slow, exhaustive and often hands-on search processes which waste engineering resources and slow down production. Moreover, manufacturing tolerances in production mean that actuators are non-identical and so controlled differently by the same PID parameters. This work presents a novel PID parameter optimisation method (patent pending) based on deep reinforcement learning which avoids tuning procedures altogether whilst improving switching performance. On a market leading optical switching product based on electromechanical control processes, compared against the manufacturer's production parameter set, average switching speed is improved 22% whilst 5x more (17.5% to 87.5%) switching events stabilise in <= 20ms (the ideal worst-case performance) without any practical deterioration in other performance metrics such as overshoot. The method also generates actuator-tailored PID parameters in O(milliseconds) without any interaction with the device using only generic information about the actuator (known from manufacturing and characterisation processes). This renders the method highly applicable to mass-manufacturing scenarios generally. Training is achieved with just a small number of actuators and can generally complete in O(hours) , so can be easily repeated if needed (e.g. if new hardware is built using entirely different types of actuators).

  • Pretraining has recently greatly promoted the development of natural language processing (NLP)
  • We show that M6 outperforms the baselines in multimodal downstream tasks, and the large M6 with 10 parameters can reach a better performance
  • We propose a method called M6 that is able to process information of multiple modalities and perform both single-modal and cross-modal understanding and generation
  • The model is scaled to large model with 10 billion parameters with sophisticated deployment, and the 10 -parameter M6-large is the largest pretrained model in Chinese
  • Experimental results show that our proposed M6 outperforms the baseline in a number of downstream tasks concerning both single modality and multiple modalities We will continue the pretraining of extremely large models by increasing data to explore the limit of its performance
