We show that given a desired closed-loop response for a system, there exists an affine subspace of controllers that achieve this response. By leveraging the existence of this subspace, we are able to separate controller design from closed-loop design by first synthesizing the desired closed-loop response and then synthesizing a controller that achieves the desired response. This is a useful extension to the recently introduced System Level Synthesis framework, in which the controller and closed-loop response are jointly synthesized and we cannot enforce controller-specific constraints without subjecting the closed-loop map to the same constraints. We demonstrate the importance of separating controller design from closed-loop design with an example in which communication delay and locality constraints cause standard SLS to be infeasible. Using our new two-step procedure, we are able to synthesize a controller that obeys the constraints while only incurring a 3% increase in LQR cost compared to the optimal LQR controller.

To further understand the underlying mechanism of various reinforcement learning (RL) algorithms and also to better use the optimization theory to make further progress in RL, many researchers begin to revisit the linear-quadratic regulator (LQR) pro
blem, whose setting is simple and yet captures the characteristics of RL. Inspired by this, this work is concerned with the model-free design of stochastic LQR controller for linear systems subject to Gaussian noises, from the perspective of both RL and primal-dual optimization. From the RL perspective, we first develop a new model-free off-policy policy iteration (MF-OPPI) algorithm, in which the sampled data is repeatedly used for updating the policy to alleviate the data-hungry problem to some extent. We then provide a rigorous analysis for algorithm convergence by showing that the involved iterations are equivalent to the iterations in the classical policy iteration (PI) algorithm. From the perspective of optimization, we first reformulate the stochastic LQR problem at hand as a constrained non-convex optimization problem, which is shown to have strong duality. Then, to solve this non-convex optimization problem, we propose a model-based primal-dual (MB-PD) algorithm based on the properties of the resulting Karush-Kuhn-Tucker (KKT) conditions. We also give a model-free implementation for the MB-PD algorithm by solving a transformed dual feasibility condition. More importantly, we show that the dual and primal update steps in the MB-PD algorithm can be interpreted as the policy evaluation and policy improvement steps in the PI algorithm, respectively. Finally, we provide one simulation example to show the performance of the proposed algorithms.
We present a framework for systematically combining data of an unknown linear time-invariant system with prior knowledge on the system matrices or on the uncertainty for robust controller design. Our approach leads to linear matrix inequality (LMI) b
ased feasibility criteria which guarantee stability and performance robustly for all closed-loop systems consistent with the prior knowledge and the available data. The design procedures rely on a combination of multipliers inferred via prior knowledge and learnt from measured data, where for the latter a novel and unifying disturbance description is employed. While large parts of the paper focus on linear systems and input-state measurements, we also provide extensions to robust output-feedback design based on noisy input-output data and against nonlinear uncertainties. We illustrate through numerical examples that our approach provides a flexible framework for simultaneously leveraging prior knowledge and data, thereby reducing conservatism and improving performance significantly if compared to black-box approaches to data-driven control.
We consider the computation of resilient controllers for perturbed non-linear dynamical systems w.r.t. linear-time temporal logic specifications. We address this problem through the paradigm of Abstraction-Based Controller Design (ABCD) where a finit
e state abstraction of the perturbed system dynamics is constructed and utilized for controller synthesis. In this context, our contribution is twofold: (I) We construct abstractions which model the impact of occasional high disturbance spikes on the system via so called disturbance edges. (II) We show that the application of resilient reactive synthesis techniques to these abstract models results in closed loop systems which are optimally resilient to these occasional high disturbance spikes. We have implemented this resilient ABCD workflow on top of SCOTS and showcase our method through multiple robot planning examples.
This paper studies the controller synthesis problem for Linear Temporal Logic (LTL) specifications using (constrained) zonotope techniques. To begin with, we implement (constrained) zonotope techniques to partition the state space and further to veri
fy whether the LTL specification can be satisfied. Once the LTL specification can be satisfied, the next step is to design a controller to guarantee the satisfaction of the LTL specification for dynamic systems. Based on the verification of the LTL specification, an abstraction-based control design approach is proposed in this paper: a novel abstraction construction is developed first, then finite local abstract controllers are designed to achieve the LTL specification, and finally the designed abstract controllers are combined and refined as the controller for the original system. The proposed control design strategy is illustrated via a numerical example from autonomous robots.
Rather than creating yet another network controller which provides a framework in a specific (potentially new) programming language and runs as a monolithic application, in this paper we extend an existing operating system and leverage its software e
cosystem in order to serve as a practical SDN controller. This paper introduces yanc, a controller platform for software-defined networks which exposes the network configuration and state as a file system, enabling user and system applications to interact through standard file I/O, and to easily take advantage of the tools available on the host operating system. In yanc, network applications are separate processes, are provided by multiple sources, and may be written in any language. Applications benefit from common and powerful technologies such as the virtual file system (VFS) layer, which we leverage to layer a distributed file system on top of, and Linux namespaces, which we use to isolate applications with different views (e.g., slices). In this paper we present the goals and design of yanc. Our initial prototype is built with the FUSE file system in user space on Linux and has been demonstrated with a simple static flow pusher application. Effectively, we are making Linux the network operating system.
