This book provides a novel unified treatment of inverse problems in optimal control and noncooperative dynamic game theory, with applications in control, robotics, biology, and economics. It emphasizes the application of Pontryagin's minimum principle and dynamic optimization theory, with a balance between fundamental theoretical questions and practical matters. The algorithms and theoretical results developed provide new insights into information requirements for solving inverse problems, with significant practical consequences in the design of technologies seeking to exploit inverse techniques.

This groundbreaking book offers a novel and comprehensive treatment of inverse problems in optimal control and noncooperative dynamic game theory. It equips readers with essential tools to develop practical algorithms for solving diverse inverse problems across control, robotics, biology, and economics. The treatment employs Pontryagin's minimum principle to address a wide range of inverse problems and proposes elegant algorithms rooted in dynamic optimization theory. A balanced emphasis between fundamental theoretical inquiries and practical applications is maintained throughout.

The text commences by providing an introduction and background to its topics, including discrete-time and continuous-time inverse optimal control. It then delves into differential and dynamic games, culminating in a discussion of relevant applications.

The algorithms and theoretical results developed in this book provide valuable insights into the information requirements for solving inverse problems. These insights have profound practical implications in the design of technologies that leverage inverse techniques, such as collaborative robots, driver-assistance systems, and autonomous systems. Consequently, the book appeals to researchers, engineers, and postgraduate students across various disciplines within the realm of control and robotics.
