This paper provides a constructive passivity-based control approach to solve the set-point regulation problem for input-affine continuous nonlinear systems while considering saturation in the inputs. As customarily in passivity-based control, the methodology consists of two steps: energy shaping and damping injection. In terms of applicability, the proposed controllers have two advantages concerning other passivity-based control techniques: (i) the energy shaping is carried out without solving partial differential equations, and (ii) the damping injection is performed without measuring the passive output. The proposed methodology is suitable to control a broad range of physical systems, e.g., mechanical, electrical, and electro-mechanical systems. We illustrate the applicability of the technique by designing controllers for systems in different physical domains, where we validate the analytical results via simulations and experiments.

We introduce a novel learning-based approach to synthesize safe and robust controllers for autonomous Cyber-Physical Systems and, at the same time, to generate challenging tests. This procedure combines formal methods for model verification with Gene
rative Adversarial Networks. The method learns two Neural Networks: the first one aims at generating troubling scenarios for the controller, while the second one aims at enforcing the safety constraints. We test the proposed method on a variety of case studies.
High performance but unverified controllers, e.g., artificial intelligence-based (a.k.a. AI-based) controllers, are widely employed in cyber-physical systems (CPSs) to accomplish complex control missions. However, guaranteeing the safety and reliabil
ity of CPSs with this kind of controllers is currently very challenging, which is of vital importance in many real-life safety-critical applications. To cope with this difficulty, we propose in this work a Safe-visor architecture for sandboxing unverified controllers in CPSs operating in noisy environments (a.k.a. stochastic CPSs). The proposed architecture contains a history-based supervisor, which checks inputs from the unverified controller and makes a compromise between functionality and safety of the system, and a safety advisor that provides fallback when the unverified controller endangers the safety of the system. Both the history-based supervisor and the safety advisor are designed based on an approximate probabilistic relation between the original system and its finite abstraction. By employing this architecture, we provide formal probabilistic guarantees on preserving the safety specifications expressed by accepting languages of deterministic finite automata (DFA). Meanwhile, the unverified controllers can still be employed in the control loop even though they are not reliable. We demonstrate the effectiveness of our proposed results by applying them to two (physical) case studies.
This paper proposes a coordinate-free controller to drive a mobile robot to encircle a target at unknown position by only using range measurements. Different from the existing works, a backstepping based controller is proposed to encircle the target
with zero steady-state error for any desired smooth pattern. Moreover, we show its asymptotic exponential convergence under a fixed set of control parameters, which are independent of the initial distance to the target. The effectiveness and advantages of the proposed controller are validated via simulations.
Emerging transportation technologies offer unprecedented opportunities to improve the efficiency of the transportation system from the perspectives of energy consumption, congestion, and emissions. One of these technologies is connected and autonomou
s vehicles (CAVs). With the prospective duality of operations of CAVs and human driven vehicles in the same roadway space (also referred to as a mixed stream), CAVs are expected to address a variety of traffic problems particularly those that are either caused or exacerbated by the heterogeneous nature of human driving. In efforts to realize such specific benefits of CAVs in mixed-stream traffic, it is essential to understand and simulate the behavior of human drivers in such environments, and microscopic traffic flow (MTF) models can be used to carry out this task. By helping to comprehend the fundamental dynamics of traffic flow, MTF models serve as a powerful approach to assess the impacts of such flow in terms of safety, stability, and efficiency. In this paper, we seek to calibrate MTF models based on empirical trajectory data as basis of not only understanding traffic dynamics such as traffic instabilities, but ultimately using CAVs to mitigate stop-and-go wave propagation. The paper therefore duly considers the heterogeneity and uncertainty associated with human driving behavior in order to calibrate the dynamics of each HDV. Also, the paper designs the CAV controllers based on the microscopic HDV models that are calibrated in real time. The data for the calibration is from the Next Generation SIMulation (NGSIM) trajectory datasets. The results are encouraging, as they indicate the efficacy of the designed controller to significantly improve not only the stability of the mixed traffic stream but also the safety of both CAVs and HDVs in the traffic stream.
In this paper we investigate multi-agent discrete-event systems with partial observation. The agents can be divided into several groups in each of which the agents have similar (isomorphic) state transition structures, and thus can be relabeled into
the same template. Based on the template a scalable supervisor whose state size and computational cost are independent of the number of agents is designed for the case of partial observation. The scalable supervisor under partial observation does not need to be recomputed regardless of how many agents are added to or removed from the system. We generalize our earlier results to partial observation by proposing sufficient conditions for safety and maximal permissiveness of the scalable least restrictive supervisor on the template level. An example is provided to illustrate the proposed scalable supervisory synthesis.
