Identifying tire and vehicle parameters is an essential step in designing control and planning algorithms for autonomous vehicles. This paper proposes a new method: Simulation-Based Inference (SBI), a modern interpretation of Approximate Bayesian Computation methods (ABC) for parameter identification. The simulation-based inference is an emerging method in the machine learning literature and has proven to yield accurate results for many parameter sets in complex problems. We demonstrate in this paper that it can handle the identification of highly nonlinear vehicle dynamics parameters and gives accurate estimates of the parameters for the governing equations.

Automated driving applications require accurate vehicle specific models to precisely predict and control the motion dynamics. However, modern vehicles have a wide array of digital and mechatronic components that are difficult to model, manufactures d
o not disclose all details required for modelling and even existing models of subcomponents require coefficient estimation to match the specific characteristics of each vehicle and their change over time. Hence, it is attractive to use data-driven modelling to capture the relevant vehicle dynamics and synthesise model-based control solutions. In this paper, we address identification of the steering system of an autonomous car based on measured data. We show that the underlying dynamics are highly nonlinear and challenging to be captured, necessitating the use of data-driven methods that fuse the approximation capabilities of learning and the efficiency of dynamic system identification. We demonstrate that such a neural network based subspace-encoder method can successfully capture the underlying dynamics while other methods fall short to provide reliable results.
Many domains of science have developed complex simulations to describe phenomena of interest. While these simulations provide high-fidelity models, they are poorly suited for inference and lead to challenging inverse problems. We review the rapidly d
eveloping field of simulation-based inference and identify the forces giving new momentum to the field. Finally, we describe how the frontier is expanding so that a broad audience can appreciate the profound change these developments may have on science.
Dynamic control of a soft-body robot to deliver complex behaviors with low-dimensional actuation inputs is challenging. In this paper, we present a computational approach to automatically generate versatile, underactuated control policies that drives
soft-bodied machines with complicated structures and nonlinear dynamics. Our target application is focused on the autonomous control of a soft multicopter, featured by its elastic material components, non-conventional shapes, and asymmetric rotor layouts, to precisely deliver compliant deformation and agile locomotion. The central piece of our approach lies in a lightweight neural surrogate model to identify and predict the temporal evolution of a set of geometric variables characterizing an elastic soft body. This physics-based learning model is further integrated into a Linear Quadratic Regulator (LQR) control loop enhanced by a novel online fixed-point relinearization scheme to accommodate the dynamic body balance, allowing an aggressive reduction of the computational overhead caused by the conventional full-scale sensing-simulation-control workflow. We demonstrate the efficacy of our approach by generating controllers for a broad spectrum of customized soft multicopter designs and testing them in a high-fidelity physics simulation environment. The control algorithm enables the multicopters to perform a variety of tasks, including hovering, trajectory tracking, cruising and active deforming.
Having the ability to estimate an objects properties through interaction will enable robots to manipulate novel objects. Objects dynamics, specifically the friction and inertial parameters have only been estimated in a lab environment with precise an
d often external sensing. Could we infer an objects dynamics in the wild with only the robots sensors? In this paper, we explore the estimation of dynamics of a grasped object in motion, with tactile force sensing at multiple fingertips. Our estimation approach does not rely on torque sensing to estimate the dynamics. To estimate friction, we develop a control scheme to actively interact with the object until slip is detected. To robustly perform the inertial estimation, we setup a factor graph that fuses all our sensor measurements on physically consistent manifolds and perform inference. We show that tactile fingertips enable in-hand dynamics estimation of low mass objects.
Reinforcement Learning (RL) is widely utilized in the field of robotics, and as such, it is gradually being implemented in the Hybrid Electric Vehicle (HEV) supervisory control. Even though RL exhibits excellent performance in terms of fuel consumpti
on minimization in simulation, the large learning iteration number needs a long learning time, making it hardly applicable in real-world vehicles. In addition, the fuel consumption of initial learning phases is much worse than baseline controls. This study aims to reduce the learning iterations of Q-learning in HEV application and improve fuel consumption in initial learning phases utilizing warm start methods. Different from previous studies, which initiated Q-learning with zero or random Q values, this study initiates the Q-learning with different supervisory controls (i.e., Equivalent Consumption Minimization Strategy control and heuristic control), and detailed analysis is given. The results show that the proposed warm start Q-learning requires 68.8% fewer iterations than cold start Q-learning. The trained Q-learning is validated in two different driving cycles, and the results show 10-16% MPG improvement when compared to Equivalent Consumption Minimization Strategy control. Furthermore, real-time feasibility is analyzed, and the guidance of vehicle implementation is provided. The results of this study can be used to facilitate the deployment of RL in vehicle supervisory control applications.
