Book Review: Inverse Optimal Control and Inverse Noncooperative Dynamic Game Theory: A Minimum-Principle Approach

Inverse Optimal Control and Inverse Noncooperative Dynamic Game Theory is a detailed exploration of inverse problems in control theory, particularly suited to researchers and practitioners working on multiagent systems, robotics, and economics. The book systematically builds up the theory and techniques necessary for recovering cost functions, which can explain observed behavior in both individual agents and systems of agents operating with competing objectives. The authors provide a deep dive into the mathematical foundations, addressing both discrete and continuous systems in optimal control and dynamic game theory.
