Electric vertical takeoff and landing (eVTOL) aircraft operating in high-density urban airspace must maintain safe separation through tactical conflict resolution, yet the energy cost of such maneuvers has not been systematically…
This paper investigates the leader-following consensus problem for a class of multi-agent systems subject to adversarial attack-like external inputs. To address this, we formulate the robust leader-following control problem as a global…
We consider event-triggered linear-quadratic Gaussian (LQG) control when sensor updates are transmitted over an i.i.d. packet-erasure channel. Although the optimal controller in a standard LQG setup is available in closed form, choosing…
Safety-critical control of uncertain, adaptive systems often relies on conservative, worst-case uncertainty bounds that limit closed-loop performance. Online conformal prediction is a powerful data-driven method for quantifying uncertainty…
We develop a framework for studying and quantifying the risk of cascading failures in time-delay consensus networks, motivated by a team of agents attempting temporal rendezvous under stochastic disturbances and communication delays. To…
This paper addresses the problem of tracking control for robotic vehicles equipped with pivoted unidirectional actuators. Starting from a baseline robust controller that assumes unconstrained inputs, we redesign the control law to be…
We provide a practical relaxation of Willems' fundamental lemma for discrete-time linear time-invariant (single-input-single-output) systems. Instead of maintaining conventional Willems' persistency of excitation condition in the behavioral…
Parameter estimation for dynamical systems remains challenging due to non-convexity and sensitivity to initial parameter guesses. Recent deep learning approaches enable accurate and fast parameter estimation but do not exploit transferable…
We study local sensitivity of structured ARX-based data-driven predictive control. Although predictor estimation is linear in the ARX parameters, the lifted multi-step predictor used in MPC depends on them implicitly, which complicates both…
We extend latent representation methods for safety control design to set-valued states. Recent work has shown that barrier functions designed in a learned latent space can transfer safety guarantees back to the original system, but these…
This paper proposes a method for constructing one-step prediction tubes for nonlinear systems using reproducing kernel Hilbert spaces. We approximate a bounded reproducing kernel Hilbert space (RKHS) hypothesis set by a finite-dimensional…
Precision Immobilization Technique (PIT) is a potentially effective intervention maneuver for emergency out-of-control vehicle, but its automation is challenged by highly nonlinear collision dynamics, strict safety constraints, and…
Reconstructing the parameters that encode the influence between model variables based on time-series measurements represents an outstanding question in the theory of complex network-coupled systems. Here, we propose a solution to this…
We develop a predictor-feedback cooperative adaptive cruise control (CACC) design relying on a multiple-predecessor-following (MPF) topology-based nominal delay-free CACC law. We consider vehicular platoons with heterogeneous vehicles,…
The Koopman operator enables simplified representations for nonlinear systems in data-driven optimal control, but the accompanying uncertainties inevitably induce deviations in the optimal controller and associated value function. This…
Considerable efforts have been made to address the resonance issue of the Direct-drive Permanent Magnet Synchronous Generator (D-PMSG) wind farm integrated power systems. However, the D-PMSG controller structure and parameters are concealed…
The integration of AI data centers into power grid represents one of the most emerging and complex challenges for the energy systems. As computational demand scales at an unprecedented rate, the traditional grid planning study's paradigm of…
Current transformer (CT) saturation is one of the dominant causes of relay protection devices' malfunctions, which pose a threat to the safe operation of the power system. To address this problem, we propose a hybrid physical model- and…
This paper presents a fully synthesizable, treebased Address-Event Representation (AER) encoder designed for scalable neuromorphic computing systems. To achieve high throughput while maintaining strict compatibility with commercial EDA…
This paper addresses the decentralized coordinated charging problem for a large population of battery storage agents (e.g. residential batteries, electrical vehicles, charging station batteries) using Mean Field Game (MFG). Agents are…
