Control Barrier Function-Based Quadratic Programs Introduce Undesirable Asymptotically Stable Equilibria

TL;DR: In this article, an extension to the QP-based controller unifies control Lyapunov functions and control barrier functions such that the resulting system trajectories avoid the undesirable equilibria problem on the boundary of the safe set.
Journal ArticleDOI

Securing state reconstruction under sensor and actuator attacks: Theory and design

TL;DR: The notion of sparse strong observability is introduced and it is shown that is a necessary and sufficient condition for correctly reconstructing the state despite the considered attacks and an observer is proposed to harness the complexity of this intrinsically combinatorial problem by leveraging satisfiability modulo theory solving.
Proceedings ArticleDOI

First steps toward formal controller synthesis for bipedal robots

TL;DR: A two step approach to formally synthesize control software for bipedal robots so as to enforce specifications by design and thereby generate physically realizable stable walking to mitigate the curse of dimensionality that hampers the applicability of formal synthesis techniques to complex CPS.

Symmetries and isomorphisms for privacy in control over the cloud

TL;DR: This article proposes several transformation-based methods for enforcing data privacy and addresses three different scenarios: the cloud has no knowledge about the system being controlled, the cloud knows what sensors and actuators the system employs but not the system dynamics, and theCloud knows the system Dynamics, its sensors, and actuator.
Journal ArticleDOI

A theory of robust omega-regular software synthesis

TL;DR: A formal definition of robustness as well as algorithmic tools for the design of optimally robust controllers for ω-regular properties on discrete transition systems and an application of the theory to the designs of controllers that tolerate infinitely many transient errors provided they occur infrequently enough are shown.
