This paper presents a control reconfiguration approach to improve the performance of two classes of dynamical systems. Motivated by recent research on re-engineering cyber-physical systems, we propose a three-step control retrofit procedure. First, we reverse-engineer a dynamical system to dig out an optimization problem it actually solves. Second, we forward-engineer the system by applying a corresponding faster algorithm to solve this optimization problem. Finally, by comparing the original and accelerated dynamics, we obtain the implementation of the redesigned part (the extra dynamics). As a result, the convergence rate/speed or transient behavior of the given system can be improved while the system control structure is maintained. Internet congestion control and distributed proportional-integral (PI) control, as applications in the two different classes of target systems, are used to show the effectiveness of the proposed approach.

In this paper, we propose an optimization framework that combines surveillance schedules and sparse control to bound the risk of spreading processes such as epidemics and wildfires. Here, risk is considered the risk of an undetected outbreak, i.e. th e product of the probability of an outbreak and the impact of that outbreak, and we can bound or minimize the risk by resource allocation and persistent monitoring schedules. The presented framework utilizes the properties of positive systems and convex optimization to provide scalable algorithms for both surveillance and intervention purposes. We demonstrate with different spreading process examples how the method can incorporate different parameters and scenarios such as a vaccination strategy for epidemics and the effect of vegetation, wind and outbreak rate on a wildfire in persistent monitoring scenarios.
A probabilistic performance-oriented controller design approach based on polynomial chaos expansion and optimization is proposed for flight dynamic systems. Unlike robust control techniques where uncertainties are conservatively handled, the proposed method aims at propagating uncertainties effectively and optimizing control parameters to satisfy the probabilistic requirements directly. To achieve this, the sensitivities of violation probabilities are evaluated by the expansion coefficients and the fourth moment method for reliability analysis, after which an optimization that minimizes failure probability under chance constraints is conducted. Afterward, a time-dependent polynomial chaos expansion is performed to validate the results. With this approach, the failure probability is reduced while guaranteeing the closed-loop performance, thus increasing the safety margin. Simulations are carried out on a longitudinal model subject to uncertain parameters to demonstrate the effectiveness of this approach.

A robust Learning Model Predictive Controller (LMPC) for uncertain systems performing iterative tasks is presented. At each iteration of the control task the closed-loop state, input and cost are stored and used in the controller design. This paper f irst illustrates how to construct robust invariant sets and safe control policies exploiting historical data. Then, we propose an iterative LMPC design procedure, where data generated by a robust controller at iteration $j$ are used to design a robust LMPC at the next $j+1$ iteration. We show that this procedure allows us to iteratively enlarge the domain of the control policy and it guarantees recursive constraints satisfaction, input to state stability and performance bounds for the certainty equivalent closed-loop system. The use of an adaptive prediction horizon is the key element of the proposed design. The effectiveness of the proposed control scheme is illustrated on a linear system subject to bounded additive disturbance.
We analyze the closed-loop control performance of a networked control system that consists of $N$ independent linear feedback control loops, sharing a communication network with $M$ channels ($M<N$). A centralized scheduler, employing a scheduling pr otocol that produces periodic communication sequences, dictates which feedback loops should utilize all these channels. Under the periodic scheduling protocol, we derive analytical expressions for quantifying the overall control performance of the networked control system in terms of a quadratic function. We also formulate the offline combinatorial optimization of communication sequences for a given collection of linear feedback control subsystems. Then, we apply Monte Carlo Tree Search to determine the period of these communication sequences that attain near-optimal control performance. Via numerical studies, we show the effectiveness of the proposed framework.
The vulnerability of artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML) against adversarial disturbances and attacks significantly restricts their applicability in safety-critical systems including cyber-physical systems (CPS) equipped with neura l network components at various stages of sensing and control. This paper addresses the reachable set estimation and safety verification problems for dynamical systems embedded with neural network components serving as feedback controllers. The closed-loop system can be abstracted in the form of a continuous-time sampled-data system under the control of a neural network controller. First, a novel reachable set computation method in adaptation to simulations generated out of neural networks is developed. The reachability analysis of a class of feedforward neural networks called multilayer perceptrons (MLP) with general activation functions is performed in the framework of interval arithmetic. Then, in combination with reachability methods developed for various dynamical system classes modeled by ordinary differential equations, a recursive algorithm is developed for over-approximating the reachable set of the closed-loop system. The safety verification for neural network control systems can be performed by examining the emptiness of the intersection between the over-approximation of reachable sets and unsafe sets. The effectiveness of the proposed approach has been validated with evaluations on a robotic arm model and an adaptive cruise control system.
