When facing a task of balancing a dynamic system near an unstable equilibrium, humans often adopt intermittent control strategy: instead of continuously controlling the system, they repeatedly switch the control on and off. Paradigmatic example of such a task is stick balancing. Despite the simplicity of the task itself, the complexity of human intermittent control dynamics in stick balancing still puzzles researchers in motor control. Here we attempt to model one of the key mechanisms of human intermittent control, control activation, using as an example the task of overdamped stick balancing. In so doing, we focus on the concept of noise-driven activation, a more general alternative to the conventional threshold-driven activation. We describe control activation as a random walk in an energy potential, which changes in response to the state of the controlled system. By way of numerical simulations, we show that the developed model captures the core properties of human control activation observed previously in the experiments on overdamped stick balancing. Our results demonstrate that the double-well potential model provides tractable mathematical description of human control activation at least in the considered task, and suggest that the adopted approach can potentially aid in understanding human intermittent control in more complex processes.

The ongoing energy transition challenges the stability of the electrical power system. Stable operation of the electrical power grid requires both the voltage (amplitude) and the frequency to stay within operational bounds. While much research has fo
cused on frequency dynamics and stability, the voltage dynamics has been neglected. Here, we study frequency and voltage stability in the case of the simplest network (two nodes) and an extended all-to-all network via linear stability and bulk analysis. In particular, our linear stability analysis of the network shows that the frequency secondary control guarantees the stability of a particular electric network. Even more interesting, while we only consider secondary frequency control, we observe a stabilizing effect on the voltage dynamics, especially in our numerical bulk analysis.
The motivation behind mathematically modeling the human operator is to help explain the response characteristics of the complex dynamical system including the human manual controller. In this paper, we present two different fuzzy logic strategies for
human operator and sport modeling: fixed fuzzy-logic inference control and adaptive fuzzy-logic control, including neuro-fuzzy-fractal control. As an application of the presented fuzzy strategies, we present a fuzzy-control based tennis simulator.
Control schemes for autonomous systems are often designed in a way that anticipates the worst case in any situation. At runtime, however, there could exist opportunities to leverage the characteristics of specific environment and operation context fo
r more efficient control. In this work, we develop an online intermittent-control framework that combines formal verification with model-based optimization and deep reinforcement learning to opportunistically skip certain control computation and actuation to save actuation energy and computational resources without compromising system safety. Experiments on an adaptive cruise control system demonstrate that our approach can achieve significant energy and computation savings.
Response delay is an inherent and essential part of human actions. In the context of human balance control, the response delay is traditionally modeled using the formalism of delay-differential equations, which adopts the approximation of fixed delay
. However, experimental studies revealing substantial variability, adaptive anticipation, and non-stationary dynamics of response delay provide evidence against this approximation. In this paper, we call for development of principally new mathematical formalism describing human response delay. To support this, we present the experimental data from a simple virtual stick balancing task. Our results demonstrate that human response delay is a widely distributed random variable with complex properties, which can exhibit oscillatory and adaptive dynamics characterized by long-range correlations. Given this, we argue that the fixed-delay approximation ignores essential properties of human response, and conclude with possible directions for future developments of new mathematical notions describing human control.
We study the critical effect of an intermittent social distancing strategy on the propagation of epidemics in adaptive complex networks. We characterize the effect of our strategy in the framework of the susceptible-infected-recovered model. In our m
odel, based on local information, a susceptible individual interrupts the contact with an infected individual with a probability $sigma$ and restores it after a fixed time $t_{b}$. We find that, depending on the network topology, in our social distancing strategy there exists a cutoff threshold $sigma_{c}$ beyond which the epidemic phase disappears. Our results are supported by a theoretical framework and extensive simulations of the model. Furthermore we show that this strategy is very efficient because it leads to a susceptible herd behavior that protects a large fraction of susceptibles individuals. We explain our results using percolation arguments.
