Dual control theory

Dual control theory is a branch of control theory that deals with the control of systems whose characteristics are initially unknown. It is called dual because in controlling such a system the controller's objectives are twofold:(1) Action: To control the system as well as possible based on current system knowledge (2) Investigation: To experiment with the system so as to learn about its behavior and control it better in the future.
