We present a method to quantify a system's resilience capacity, i.e., the set of degradation magnitudes for which all functional requirements remain satisfied. These requirements come from human stakeholders (e.g., operators, planners) who…

We examine the feasibility of predicting and subsequently managing the future evolution of a Complex Adaptive System. Our archetypal system mimics a competitive population of mechanical, biological, informational or human objects. We show…

This paper introduces a flight envelope protection algorithm on a longitudinal axis that leverages reinforcement learning (RL). By considering limits on variables such as angle of attack, load factor, and pitch rate, the algorithm…

A cascaded online learning flight control system has been developed and enhanced with respect to action smoothness. In this paper, we investigate the convergence performance of the control system, characterized by the increment of a…

Learning-based control methods typically assume stationary system dynamics, an assumption often violated in real-world systems due to drift, wear, or changing operating conditions. We study reinforcement learning for control under…

This paper aims to improve the reliability of optimal control using models constructed by machine learning methods. Optimal control problems based on such models are generally non-convex and difficult to solve online. In this paper, we…

Stabilizing control synthesis is one of the central subjects in control theory and engineering, and it always has to deal with unavoidable uncertainties in practice. In this study, we propose an adaptive parameter tuning algorithm for…

Considering some predictive mechanisms, we show that ultrafast average-consensus can be achieved in networks of interconnected agents. More specifically, by predicting the dynamics of the network several steps ahead and using this…

Real-world network systems are inherently dynamic, with network topologies undergoing continuous changes over time. Previous works often focus on static networks or rely on complete prior knowledge of evolving topologies, whereas real-world…

This paper focuses on developing a strategy for control of systems whose dynamics are almost entirely unknown. This situation arises naturally in a scenario where a system undergoes a critical failure. In that case, it is imperative to…

We consider the policy gradient adaptive control (PGAC) framework, which adaptively updates a control policy in real time, by performing data-based gradient descent steps on the linear quadratic regulator cost. This method has empirically…

A robust model predictive control (MPC) method is presented for linear, time-invariant systems affected by bounded additive disturbances. The main contribution is the offline design of a disturbance-affine feedback gain whereby the…

The physical coupling between robots has the potential to improve the capabilities of multi-robot systems in challenging manufacturing processes. However, the path tracking accuracy of physically coupled robots is not studied adequately,…

Model predictive control (MPC) is an optimal control method that predicts the future states of the system being controlled and estimates the optimal control inputs that drive the predicted states to the required reference. The computations…

Multi-robot systems can greatly enhance efficiency through coordination and collaboration, yet in practice, full-time communication is rarely available and interactions are constrained to close-range exchanges. Existing methods either…

Modern network systems, such as transportation and communication systems, are prone to cyber-physical disruptions and thus suffer efficiency loss. This paper studies network resiliency, in terms of throughput, and develops resilient control…

As autonomous driving technology progresses, the need for precise trajectory prediction models becomes paramount. This paper introduces an innovative model that infuses cognitive insights into trajectory prediction, focusing on perceived…

While action anticipation has garnered a lot of research interest recently, most of the works focus on anticipating future action directly through observed visual cues only. In this work, we take a step back to analyze how the human…

Recent research shows that supervised learning can be an effective tool for designing near-optimal feedback controllers for high-dimensional nonlinear dynamic systems. But the behavior of neural network controllers is still not well…

Recently, there has been a surge of research on a class of methods called feedback optimization. These are methods to steer the state of a control system to an equilibrium that arises as the solution of an optimization problem. Despite the…
