The problem of safely learning and controlling a dynamical system - i.e., of stabilizing an originally (partially) unknown system while ensuring that it does not leave a prescribed 'safe set' - has recently received tremendous attention in…
In this paper, a triggered Batch Least-Squares Identifier (BaLSI) based adaptive safety control scheme is proposed for uncertain systems with potentially conflicting control objectives and safety constraints. A relaxation term is added to…
