This paper considers control systems with failures in the feedback channel, that occasionally lead to loss of the control input signal. A useful approach for modeling such failures is to consider window-based constraints on possible loss…
With neural networks being used to control safety-critical systems, they increasingly have to be both accurate (in the sense of matching inputs to outputs) and robust. However, these two properties are often at odds with each other and a…
