HILO-MPC Documentation

HILO-MPC is a toolbox for easy, flexible and fast development of machine-learning-supported optimal control and estimation problems.

This tool can leverage TensorFlow and PyTorch to create machine learning models, and the CasADi framework to efficiently build control and estimation problems.
