This paper deals with the design of time-invariant memoryless control policies for robots that move in a finite two- dimensional lattice and are tasked with persistent surveillance of an area in which there are forbidden regions. We model…
Discrete-time robust optimal control problems generally take a min-max structure over continuous variable spaces, which can be difficult to solve in practice. In this paper, we extend the class of such problems that can be solved through a…
A novel perspective on the design of robust model predictive control (MPC) methods is presented, whereby closed-loop constraint satisfaction is ensured using recursive feasibility of the MPC optimization. Necessary and sufficient conditions…
This paper considers the problem of controlling a dynamical system when the state cannot be directly measured and the control performance metrics are unknown or partially known. In particular, we focus on the design of data-driven…
In this work, we consider the problem of event-triggered implementation of control laws designed for the local stabilization of nonlinear systems with center manifolds. We propose event-triggering conditions which are derived from a local…
In this paper, we revisit the computation of controlled invariant sets for linear discrete-time systems through a trajectory-based viewpoint. We begin by introducing the notion of convex feasible points, which provides a new…
This work presents a control-oriented identification scheme for efficient control design and stability analysis of nonlinear systems. Neural networks are used to identify a discrete-time nonlinear state-space model to approximate…
Ensuring constraint satisfaction in large-scale systems with hard constraints is vital in many safety critical systems. The challenge is to design controllers that are efficiently synthesized offline, easily implementable online, and…
This work investigates the challenge of ensuring safety guarantees in the presence of uncontrollable agents, whose behaviors are stochastic and depend on both their own and the system's states. We present a neural model predictive control…
In this work, the reachable set estimation and safety verification problems for a class of piecewise linear systems equipped with neural network controllers are addressed. The neural network is considered to consist of Rectified Linear Unit…
Petri Net is a formalism to describe changes between 2 or more states across discrete time and has been used to model many systems. We present PNet - a pure Python library for Petri Net modeling and simulation in Python programming…
Adaptive model predictive control (MPC) robustly ensures safety while reducing uncertainty during operation. In this paper, a distributed version is proposed to deal with network systems featuring multiple agents and limited communication.…
In this paper, we propose a new self-triggered formulation of Model Predictive Control for continuous-time linear networked control systems. Our control approach, which aims at reducing the number of transmitting control samples to the…
We consider the decentralized control of a discrete-time time-varying linear system subject to additive disturbances and polyhedral constraints on the state and input trajectories. The underlying system is composed of a finite collection of…
Motivated by perception-based control problems in autonomous systems, this paper addresses the problem of developing feedback controllers to regulate the inputs and the states of a dynamical system to optimal solutions of an optimization…
Model Predictive Control (MPC) can efficiently control constrained systems in real-time applications. MPC feedback law for a linear system with linear inequality constraints can be explicitly computed off-line, which results in an off-line…
This paper addresses problems on the structural design of control systems taking explicitly into consideration the possible application to large-scale systems. We provide an efficient and unified framework to solve the following major…
To address feasibility issues in model predictive control (MPC), most implementations relax state constraints by using slack variables and adding a penalty to the cost. We propose an alternative strategy: relaxing the initial state…
We present a real-time-capable set-based framework for closed-loop predictive control of autonomous systems using tools from computational geometry, dynamic programming, and convex optimization. The control architecture relies on the…
This paper addresses the problem of controlling constrained systems subject to disturbances in the case where controller and system are connected over a lossy network. To do so, we propose a novel framework that splits the concept of…
