In contrast to electronic computation, chemical computation is noisy and susceptible to a variety of sources of error, which has prevented the construction of robust complex systems. To be effective, chemical algorithms must be designed…
The dynamic linear response of a quantum system is critical for understanding both the structure and dynamics of strongly-interacting quantum systems, including neutron scattering from materials, photon and electron scattering from atomic…
The premise of this paper is the following value proposition: Models are good when they describe a system of phenomena, and they are better when they can predict the effect of interventions upon the system. We introduce a formalism by which…
In many supervised learning applications, the response consists of both continuous and binary outcomes. Studies have shown that jointly modeling such mixed-type responses can substantially improve predictive performance compared to separate…
Linear response theory asserts that sufficiently small external biases produce currents proportional to the applied force and forms the theoretical foundation of nonequilibrium transport. Here we demonstrate that linear response can break…

We introduce $(\gamma,\delta)$-similarity, a notion of system comparison that measures to what extent two stable linear dynamical systems behave similarly in an input-output sense. This behavioral similarity is characterized by measuring…
Physical dynamic networks most commonly consist of interconnections of physical components that can be described by diffusive couplings. These diffusive couplings imply that the cause-effect relationships in the interconnections are…
We study linear systems of equations with coefficients in a generic partially ordered ring $R$ and a unique solution, and seek conditions for the solution to be nonnegative, that is, every component of the solution is a quotient of two…

We establish a linear programming formulation for the solution of joint chance constrained optimal control problems over finite time horizons. The joint chance constraint may represent an invariance, reachability or reach-avoid…
Generalized mass-action systems are power-law dynamical systems arising from chemical reaction networks. Essentially, every nonnegative ODE model used in chemistry and biology (for example, in ecology and epidemiology) and even in economics…
Chemical reaction network theory is a powerful framework to describe and analyze chemical systems. While much about the concentration profile in an equilibrium state can be determined in terms of the graph structure, the overall reaction's…
This work proposes action networks as a semantically well-founded framework for reasoning about actions and change under uncertainty. Action networks add two primitives to probabilistic causal networks: controllable variables and persistent…
We show that weakly reversible mass-action systems can have a continuum of positive steady states, coming from the zeroes of a multivariate polynomial. Moreover, the same is true of systems whose underlying reaction network is reversible…
This paper presents an uncertainty compensation-based robust adaptive model predictive control (MPC) framework for linear systems with both matched and unmatched nonlinear uncertainties subject to both state and input constraints. In…
