With the increasing complexity of real-world systems and varying environmental uncertainties, it is difficult to build an accurate dynamic model, which poses challenges especially for safety-critical control. In this paper, a learning-based…

This paper addresses the problem of asymptotic tracking for high-order control-affine MIMO nonlinear systems with unknown dynamic terms subject to input and transient state constraints. We introduce Barrier Integral Control (BRIC), a novel…

This paper considers the problem of adapting a predesigned policy, represented by a parameterized function class, from a solution that minimizes a given original cost function to a trade-off solution between minimizing the original…

We propose a certainty-equivalence scheme for adaptive control of scalar linear systems subject to additive, i.i.d. Gaussian disturbances and bounded control input constraints, without requiring prior knowledge of the bounds of the system…

The recently introduced energy-saving extension of the sub-optimal sliding mode control allows for control-off phases during the convergence to second-order equilibrium. This way, it enables for a lower energy consumption compared to the…

This paper considers the problem of adaptively overriding unsafe actions of a nominal controller in the presence of high-relative-degree nonovershooting constraints and parametric uncertainties. To prevent the design from being coupled with…

To improve the robustness of deep classifiers against adversarial perturbations, many approaches have been proposed, such as designing new architectures with better robustness properties (e.g., Lipschitz-capped networks), or modifying the…

The problem of robustly, asymptotically stabilizing a point (or a set) with two output-feedback hybrid controllers is considered. These control laws may have different objectives, e.g., the closed-loop systems resulting with each controller…
