In this paper, we introduce a robust sensor design framework to provide persuasion-based defense in stochastic control systems against an unknown type attacker with a control objective exclusive to its type. For effective control, such an attackers actions depend on its belief on the underlying state of the system. We design a robust linear-plus-noise signaling strategy to encode sensor outputs in order to shape the attackers belief in a strategic way and correspondingly to persuade the attacker to take actions that lead to minimum damage with respect to the systems objective. The specific model we adopt is a Gauss-Markov process driven by a controller with a (partially) unknown malicious/benign control objective. We seek to defend against the worst possible distribution over control objectives in a robust way under the solution concept of Stackelberg equilibrium, where the sensor is the leader. We show that a necessary and sufficient condition on the covariance matrix of the posterior belief is a certain linear matrix inequality and we provide a closed-form solution for the associated signaling strategy. This enables us to formulate an equivalent tractable problem, indeed a semi-definite program, to compute the robust sensor design strategies globally even though the original optimization problem is non-convex and highly nonlinear. We also extend this result to scenarios where the sensor makes noisy or partial measurements. Finally, we analyze the ensuing performance numerically for various scenarios.

In this paper, we consider the problem of synthesis of maximally permissive covert damage-reachable attackers in the setup where the model of the supervisor is unknown to the adversary but the adversary has recorded a (prefix-closed) finite set of ob
servations of the runs of the closed-loop system. The synthesized attacker needs to ensure both the damage-reachability and the covertness against all the supervisors which are consistent with the given set of observations. There is a gap between the de facto maximal permissiveness, assuming the model of the supervisor is known, and the maximal permissiveness that can be attained with a limited knowledge of the model of the supervisor, from the adversarys point of view. We consider the setup where the attacker can exercise sensor replacement/deletion attacks and actuator enablement/disablement attacks. The solution methodology proposed in this work is to reduce the synthesis of maximally permissive covert damage-reachable attackers, given the model of the plant and the finite set of observations, to the synthesis of maximally permissive safe supervisors for certain transformed plant, which shows the decidability of the observation-assisted covert attacker synthesis problem. The effectiveness of our approach is illustrated on a water tank example adapted from the literature.
As people spend up to 87% of their time indoors, intelligent Heating, Ventilation, and Air Conditioning (HVAC) systems in buildings are essential for maintaining occupant comfort and reducing energy consumption. These HVAC systems in smart buildings
rely on real-time sensor readings, which in practice often suffer from various faults and could also be vulnerable to malicious attacks. Such faulty sensor inputs may lead to the violation of indoor environment requirements (e.g., temperature, humidity, etc.) and the increase of energy consumption. While many model-based approaches have been proposed in the literature for building HVAC control, it is costly to develop accurate physical models for ensuring their performance and even more challenging to address the impact of sensor faults. In this work, we present a novel learning-based framework for sensor fault-tolerant HVAC control, which includes three deep learning based components for 1) generating temperature proposals with the consideration of possible sensor faults, 2) selecting one of the proposals based on the assessment of their accuracy, and 3) applying reinforcement learning with the selected temperature proposal. Moreover, to address the challenge of training data insufficiency in building-related tasks, we propose a model-assisted learning method leveraging an abstract model of building physical dynamics. Through extensive experiments, we demonstrate that the proposed fault-tolerant HVAC control framework can significantly reduce building temperature violations under a variety of sensor fault patterns while maintaining energy efficiency.
We consider the problem of controlling an unknown linear quadratic Gaussian (LQG) system consisting of multiple subsystems connected over a network. Our goal is to minimize and quantify the regret (i.e. loss in performance) of our strategy with respe
ct to an oracle who knows the system model. Viewing the interconnected subsystems globally and directly using existing LQG learning algorithms for the global system results in a regret that increases super-linearly with the number of subsystems. Instead, we propose a new Thompson sampling based learning algorithm which exploits the structure of the underlying network. We show that the expected regret of the proposed algorithm is bounded by $tilde{mathcal{O}} big( n sqrt{T} big)$ where $n$ is the number of subsystems, $T$ is the time horizon and the $tilde{mathcal{O}}(cdot)$ notation hides logarithmic terms in $n$ and $T$. Thus, the regret scales linearly with the number of subsystems. We present numerical experiments to illustrate the salient features of the proposed algorithm.
We revisit the Thompson sampling algorithm to control an unknown linear quadratic (LQ) system recently proposed by Ouyang et al (arXiv:1709.04047). The regret bound of the algorithm was derived under a technical assumption on the induced norm of the
closed loop system. In this technical note, we show that by making a minor modification in the algorithm (in particular, ensuring that an episode does not end too soon), this technical assumption on the induced norm can be replaced by a milder assumption in terms of the spectral radius of the closed loop system. The modified algorithm has the same Bayesian regret of $tilde{mathcal{O}}(sqrt{T})$, where $T$ is the time-horizon and the $tilde{mathcal{O}}(cdot)$ notation hides logarithmic terms in~$T$.
This work investigates robust monotonic convergent iterative learning control (ILC) for uncertain linear systems in both time and frequency domains, and the ILC algorithm optimizing the convergence speed in terms of $l_{2}$ norm of error signals is d
erived. Firstly, it is shown that the robust monotonic convergence of the ILC system can be established equivalently by the positive definiteness of a matrix polynomial over some set. Then, a necessary and sufficient condition in the form of sum of squares (SOS) for the positive definiteness is proposed, which is amendable to the feasibility of linear matrix inequalities (LMIs). Based on such a condition, the optimal ILC algorithm that maximizes the convergence speed is obtained by solving a set of convex optimization problems. Moreover, the order of the learning function can be chosen arbitrarily so that the designers have the flexibility to decide the complexity of the learning algorithm.
