Recently sum-of-squares (SOS) based methods have been used for the stability analysis and control synthesis of polynomial dynamical systems. This analysis framework was also extended to non-polynomial dynamical systems, including power…
In this paper, we introduce a data-driven framework for synthesis of provably-correct controllers for general nonlinear switched systems under complex specifications. The focus is on systems with unknown disturbances whose effects on the…
While there has been increasing interest in using neural networks to compute Lyapunov functions, verifying that these functions satisfy the Lyapunov conditions and certifying stability regions remain challenging due to the curse of…
Stability analysis tools are essential to understanding and controlling any engineering system. Recently sum-of-squares (SOS) based methods have been used to compute Lyapunov based estimates for the region-of-attraction (ROA) of polynomial…
Neural-based, data-driven analysis and control of dynamical systems have been recently investigated and have shown great promise, e.g. for safety verification or stability analysis. Indeed, not only do neural networks allow for an entirely…
This paper addresses the problem of risk-aware fixed-time stabilization of a class of uncertain, output-feedback nonlinear systems modeled via stochastic differential equations. First, novel classes of certificate functions, namely…
This paper proposes a control design approach for stabilizing nonlinear control systems. Our key observation is that the set of points where the decrease condition of a control Lyapunov function (CLF) is feasible can be regarded as a safe…
Imitation learning is a paradigm to address complex motion planning problems by learning a policy to imitate an expert's behavior. However, relying solely on the expert's data might lead to unsafe actions when the robot deviates from the…
The paper deals with the problem of the sampled data feedback stabilization for autonomous nonlinear systems. The corresponding results extend those obtained in earlier works by the same authors. The sufficient conditions we establish are…
When neural networks are used to model dynamics, properties such as stability of the dynamics are generally not guaranteed. In contrast, there is a recent method for learning the dynamics of autonomous systems that guarantees global…
Finding separable certificates of stability is important for tractability of analysis methods for large-scale networked systems. In this paper we consider the question of when a nonlinear system which is contracting, i.e. all solutions are…
Nonlinear dynamical behaviours in engineering applications can be approximated by linear-parameter varying (LPV) representations, but obtaining precise model knowledge to develop a control algorithm is difficult in practice. In this paper,…
For data-driven control of nonlinear systems, the basis functions characterizing the dynamics are usually essential. In existing works, the basis functions are often carefully chosen based on pre-knowledge of the dynamics so that the system…
Control of linear dynamics with multiplicative noise naturally introduces robustness against dynamical uncertainty. Moreover, many physical systems are subject to multiplicative disturbances. In this work we show how these dynamics can be…
We present an approach to compute stabilizing controllers for continuous-time linear time-invariant systems directly from an input-output trajectory affected by process and measurement noise. The proposed output-feedback design combines (i)…
For a parameter-unknown linear descriptor system, this paper proposes data-driven methods to testify the system's type and controllability and then to stabilize it. First, a data-based condition is developed to identify whether this unknown…
Linear dynamical systems are canonical models for learning-based control of plants with uncertain dynamics. The setting consists of a stochastic differential equation that captures the state evolution of the plant understudy, while the true…
Learning for control of dynamical systems with formal guarantees remains a challenging task. This paper proposes a learning framework to simultaneously stabilize an unknown nonlinear system with a neural controller and learn a neural…
We present a novel framework for transferring the knowledge from one system (source) to design a stabilizing controller for a second system (target). Our motivation stems from the hypothesis that abundant data can be collected from the…
This paper studies several problems related to quadratic matrix inequalities (QMI's), i.e., inequalities in the Loewner order involving quadratic functions of matrix variables. In particular, we provide conditions under which the solution…
