This paper introduces an extension of the LQR-tree algorithm, which is a feedback-motion-planning algorithm for stabilizing a system of ordinary differential equations from a bounded set of initial conditions to a goal. The constructed…
Hybrid dynamical systems pose significant challenges for effective planning and control, especially when additional constraints such as obstacle avoidance, state boundaries, and actuation limits are present. In this letter, we extend the…
This article presents a unified approach to quadratic optimal control for both linear and nonlinear discrete-time systems, with a focus on trajectory tracking. The control strategy is based on minimizing a quadratic cost function that…
Trajectory optimization has been used extensively in robotic systems. In particular, iterative Linear Quadratic Regulator (iLQR) has performed well as an off-line planner and online nonlinear model predictive control solver, with a lower…
In order to perform highly dynamic and agile maneuvers, legged robots typically spend time in underactuated domains (e.g. with feet off the ground) where the system has limited command of its acceleration and a constrained amount of time…
Stabilizing an unknown control system is one of the most fundamental problems in control systems engineering. In this paper, we provide a simple, model-free algorithm for stabilizing fully observed dynamical systems. While model-free…
Trajectory optimization is a popular strategy for planning trajectories for robotic systems. However, many robotic tasks require changing contact conditions, which is difficult due to the hybrid nature of the dynamics. The optimal sequence…
Model Predictive Control (MPC) is a popular strategy for controlling robots but is difficult for systems with contact due to the complex nature of hybrid dynamics. To implement MPC for systems with contact, dynamic models are often…
A common pipeline in learning-based control is to iteratively estimate a model of system dynamics, and apply a trajectory optimization algorithm - e.g.~$\mathtt{iLQR}$ - on the learned model to minimize a target cost. This paper conducts a…
Behavior trees represent a hierarchical and modular way of combining several low-level control policies into a high-level task-switching policy. Hybrid dynamical systems can also be seen in terms of task switching between different…
This paper presents a systematic approach to exponentially stabilize the periodic orbits of multi-domain hybrid systems arising from 3D bipedal walking. Firstly, the method of Poincare sections is extended to the hybrid systems with…
This paper presents a novel hybrid control protocol for de-conflicting multiple vehicles with constraints on control inputs. We consider turning rate and linear speed constraints to represent fixed-wing or car-like vehicles. A set of…
We develop an optimization-based framework for joint real-time trajectory planning and feedback control of feedback-linearizable systems. To achieve this goal, we define a target trajectory as the optimal solution of a time-varying…
This paper proposes a bidirectional rapidly-exploring random trees (RRT) algorithm to solve the motion planning problem for hybrid systems. The proposed algorithm, called HyRRT-Connect, propagates in both forward and backward directions in…
We develop an algorithm for the motion and task planning of a system comprised of multiple robots and unactuated objects under tasks expressed as Linear Temporal Logic (LTL) constraints. The robots and objects evolve subject to uncertain…
This paper proposes a rapidly-exploring random trees (RRT) algorithm to solve the motion planning problem for hybrid systems. At each iteration, the proposed algorithm, called HyRRT, randomly picks a state sample and extends the search tree…
The goal of this paper is to develop data-driven control design and evaluation strategies based on linear matrix inequalities (LMIs) and dynamic programming. We consider deterministic discrete-time LTI systems, where the system model is…
System stabilization via policy gradient (PG) methods has drawn increasing attention in both control and machine learning communities. In this paper, we study their convergence and sample complexity for stabilizing linear time-invariant…
In this paper, we investigate a data-driven framework to solve Linear Quadratic Regulator (LQR) problems when the dynamics is unknown, with the additional challenge of providing stability certificates for the overall learning and control…
Simplified models of the dynamics such as the linear inverted pendulum model (LIPM) have proven to perform well for biped walking on flat ground. However, for more complex tasks the assumptions of these models can become limiting. For…
