Concurrency control (CC) algorithms are important in modern transactional databases, as they enable high performance by executing transactions concurrently while ensuring correctness. However, state-of-the-art CC algorithms struggle to…
We consider a perimeter defense problem in a planar conical environment in which a single vehicle, having a finite capture radius, aims to defend a concentric perimeter from mobile intruders. The intruders are arbitrarily released at the…
Model Predictive Control (MPC) is widely used in robot control by optimizing a sequence of control outputs over a finite-horizon. Computational approaches for MPC include deterministic methods (e.g., iLQR and COBYLA), as well as…
Online model predictive control (MPC) for piecewise affine (PWA) systems requires the online solution to an optimization problem that implicitly optimizes over the switching sequence of PWA regions, for which the computational burden can be…
Recent literature on online learning has focused on developing adaptive algorithms that take advantage of a regularity of the sequence of observations, yet retain worst-case performance guarantees. A complementary direction is to develop…
In this paper, we leverage the rapid advances in imitation learning, a topic of intense recent focus in the Reinforcement Learning (RL) literature, to develop new sample complexity results and performance guarantees for data-driven Model…
We study the problem of online non-stochastic control (ONC), which is the control of a linear system under adversarial disturbances and adversarial cost functions, with the aim of minimizing the total cost incurred. A recent line of…
We consider the problem of controlling an unknown linear dynamical system under adversarially changing convex costs and full feedback of both the state and cost function. We present the first computationally-efficient algorithm that attains…

We study the online robust control problem for linear dynamical systems with disturbances and uncertainties in the cost functions, with limited preview of the future disturbances and the cost functions, $N$. Our goal is to find an online…
Non-prehensile manipulation in high-dimensional systems is challenging for a variety of reasons. One of the main reasons is the computationally long planning times that come with a large state space. Trajectory optimisation algorithms have…
Offline model-based optimization (MBO) seeks to discover high-performing designs using only a fixed dataset of past evaluations. Most existing methods rely on learning a surrogate model via regression and implicitly assume that good…
Iterative learning control (ILC) is a control strategy for repetitive tasks wherein information from previous runs is leveraged to improve future performance. Optimization-based ILC (OB-ILC) is a powerful design framework for constrained…
We study the control of a linear dynamical system with adversarial disturbances (as opposed to statistical noise). The objective we consider is one of regret: we desire an online control procedure that can do nearly as well as that of a…
The emerging computing continuum paves the way for exploiting multiple computing devices, ranging from the edge to the cloud, to implement the control algorithm. Different computing units over the continuum are characterized by different…
The scheme of online optimization as a feedback controller is widely used to steer the states of a physical system to the optimal solution of a predefined optimization problem. Such methods focus on regulating the physical states to the…
This paper studies online nonstochastic control problems with adversarial and static constraints. We propose online nonstochastic control algorithms that achieve both sublinear regret and sublinear adversarial constraint violation while…
Model Predictive Control (MPC) is a successful control methodology, which is applied to increasingly complex systems. However, real-time feasibility of MPC can be challenging for complex systems, certainly when an (extremely) large number…
Model Predictive Control (MPC) is a well-established approach to solve infinite horizon optimal control problems. Since optimization over an infinite time horizon is generally infeasible, MPC determines a suboptimal feedback control by…
Model Predictive Controllers (MPC) are widely used for controlling cyber-physical systems. It is an iterative process of optimizing the prediction of the future states of a robot over a fixed time horizon. MPCs are effective in practice,…
