摘要:The framework of integral quadratic constraints is used to perform an analysis of gradient descent with varying step sizes. Two performance metrics are considered: convergence rate and noise amplification. We assume that the step size is produced from a line search and varies in a known interval. Modeling the algorithm as a linear parameter-varying (LPV) system, we construct a parameterized linear matrix inequality condition that certifies algorithm performance, which is solved using a result ...

摘要:Practical control applications frequently require state and input constraints. Even more, certain applications may require the controller to fit with a strict time scheduling. In this context, this article proposes a control scheme that ensures convergence to the origin in prescribed-time for both linear controllable systems and nonlinear systems in the normal form, under nonvanishing disturbances. In this, the settling time is an explicit parameter given by the designer. Moreover, a planning ...

摘要:We propose two new algorithms for solving quadratically constrained quadratic programming (QCQP) problems arising from real-time optimization based control such as model predictive control or interpolating control. The proposed algorithms are based on the Alternating Direction Method of Multipliers (ADMM). ADMM is a powerful tool for solving a wide class of constrained optimization problems. There are two main challenges when applying ADMM: Its performance depends greatly on the efficiency of ...

摘要:This article focuses on estimating the domain of attraction for linear cone-preserving systems subject to saturated linear feedback. The considered system model belongs to a category of control systems whose state trajectories are constrained within proper cones. In terms of cone max norms induced by proper cones, an extended max-separable Lyapunov function is constructed. Furthermore, sufficient criteria are given to show that the level set of this Lyapunov function is contractively invariant...

摘要:Research on attack design provides a reference for attack defense. To this end, this work considers the design problem of an optimal energy-constrained stealthy attack strategy orienting remote estimation. The signals from smart sensors to remote estimators are scheduled via an extended Round-Robin protocol, which sends data through each channel in a specific order, and allows more than one channel to be transitable at each instant. To achieve the optimal attack strategy that can maximize the ...

摘要:In this article, we study control synthesis problems for multiagent systems (MASs) that must comply with spatio-temporal logic requirements. We define a logic called team spatio-temporal reach and escape logic (t-STREL) and a robustness metric for it that is continuous everywhere and differentiable almost everywhere. These properties facilitate the use of gradient-based optimization and learning-based control techniques, offering greater efficiency compared to traditional gradient-free methods...

摘要:In this article, we deal with stochastic optimization problems where the data distributions change in response to the decision variables. Traditionally, the study of optimization problems with decision-dependent distributions has assumed either the absence of constraints or fixed constraints. This work considers a more general setting where the constraints can also dynamically adjust in response to changes in the decision variables. Specifically, we consider linear constraints and analyze the ...

摘要:Safety-critical systems, such as autonomous vehicles, often incorporate perception modules that can anticipate upcoming disturbances to system dynamics, expecting that such preview information can improve the performance and safety of the system in complex and uncertain environments. However, there is a lack of formal analysis of the impact of preview information on safety. In this work, we introduce a notion of safety regret, a properly defined difference between the maximal invariant set of ...

摘要:The bearing-based formation control has been an active research topic over the past decade. However, the existing results mainly focus on single- or double-integrator systems and assume that all the leaders move with a constant velocity. In this article, we aim to establish a general framework to handle the bearing-based formation control. The framework offers three features. First, our problem is formulated for general heterogeneous multiagent linear systems, which include high-order integrat...

摘要:In this article, we address the problem of learning optimal control policies for systems with uncertain dynamics and high-level control objectives specified as linear temporal logic (LTL) formulas. Uncertainty is considered in the workspace structure and the outcomes of control decisions giving rise to an unknown Markov decision process (MDP). Existing reinforcement learning (RL) algorithms for LTL tasks typically rely on exploring a product MDP state-space uniformly (using e.g., an $\epsilon$...
