To enable autonomous driving in interactive traffic scenarios, various model predictive control (MPC) formulations have been proposed, each employing different interaction models. While higher-fidelity models enable more intelligent…

For motion planning and control of autonomous vehicles to be proactive and safe, pedestrians' and other road users' motions must be considered. In this paper, we present a vehicle motion planning and control framework, based on Model…

Model Predictive Control (MPC) has proven to be a powerful tool for the control of systems with constraints. Nonetheless, in many applications, a major challenge arises, that is finding the optimal solution within a single sampling instant…

So far, many control algorithms have been developed for singularly perturbed systems. However, in many industrial processes, enforcing closed-loop fast-slow dynamics for peculiarly non-separable ones is a prior request and a crucial issue…

Convex model predictive controls (MPCs) with a single rigid body model have demonstrated strong performance on real legged robots. However, convex MPCs are limited by their assumptions such as small rotation angle and pre-defined gait,…

Learning-based control techniques use data from past trajectories to control systems with uncertain dynamics. However, learning-based controllers are often computationally inefficient, limiting their practicality. To address this…
