Mobile robots are being actively explored as a potential solution to provide timely guidance. This work studies a robot-guided crowd evacuation problem where a small group of robots is used to guide a large human crowd to safe locations. The challenge lies in how to use microlevel human-robot interactions to indirectly influence a population that significantly outnumbers the robots to achieve the collective evacuation objective. To address the challenge, we follow a two-scale modeling strategy and explore hydrodynamic models, which consist of a family of microscopic social force models that describe how human movements are locally affected by other humans, the environment, and robots, and associated macroscopic equations for the temporal and spatial evolution of the crowd density and flow velocity. We design controllers for the robots, such that they not only automatically explore the environment (with unknown dynamic obstacles) to cover it as much as possible, but also dynamically adjust the directions of their local navigation force fields based on the real-time macrostates of the crowd to guide the crowd to a safe location. We prove the stability of the proposed evacuation algorithm and conduct extensive simulations to investigate the performance of the algorithm with different combinations of human numbers, robot numbers, and obstacle settings.","PeriodicalId":13103,"journal":{"name":"IEEE Transactions on Control Systems Technology","volume":"32 6","pages":"2194-2206"},"PeriodicalIF":4.9,"publicationDate":"2024-06-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141939882","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"计算机科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In addition, with emergent complex systems, there is a need for advanced optimization-based control strategies such as model predictive control (MPC). However, the unified implementation of these advanced strategies on hardware remains a challenge. Designing complex control policies for embedded systems is inherently an interwoven process between the algorithmic design and hardware implementation, which will require a hardware-software co-design perspective. We propose an end-to-end framework for the automated design and tuning of arbitrary control policies on arbitrary hardware. The proposed framework relies on deep learning as a universal control policy representation and multiobjective Bayesian optimization (MOBO) to facilitate iterative systematic controller design. The large representation power of deep learning and its ability to decouple hardware and software design are a central component to determining feasible control-on-a-chip (CoC) policies. Then, Bayesian optimization (BO) provides a flexible sequential decision-making framework where practical considerations, such as multiobjective optimization (MOO) concepts and categorical decisions, can be incorporated to efficiently design embedded control policies that are directly implemented on hardware. We demonstrate the proposed framework via closed-loop simulations and real-time experiments on an atmospheric pressure plasma jet (APPJ) for plasma processing of biomaterials.","PeriodicalId":13103,"journal":{"name":"IEEE Transactions on Control Systems Technology","volume":"32 6","pages":"2178-2193"},"PeriodicalIF":4.9,"publicationDate":"2024-06-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141939747","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"计算机科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Recursive or online system identification of continuous-time fractional models is explored in this article. When differentiation orders are known, only the coefficients are to be estimated: the classic recursive methods of least squares, prediction error method (PEM), and instrumental variable are adapted for fractional models. They are then compared to our new long memory PEM to prove its efficiency. When differentiation orders are unknown, which is often the case in practice, two-stage algorithms are proposed for both coefficient and differentiation order estimation. A single method of differentiation order estimation is proposed, which is then combined with the two best coefficient estimation methods (long-memory PEM and instrumental variable) to create two hybrid algorithms. The performances of these algorithms are compared through Monte Carlo simulations in order to highlight the influence of the parameter estimation in a more complex scenario. Finally, recursive identification is applied to a simulation example of a thermal lung impedance.","PeriodicalId":13103,"journal":{"name":"IEEE Transactions on Control Systems Technology","volume":"32 6","pages":"2037-2049"},"PeriodicalIF":4.9,"publicationDate":"2024-06-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141939827","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"计算机科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Thus, we design a fully distributed continuous-time equilibrium-seeking algorithm to compute the generalized Nash equilibrium (GNE) of the game. We interconnect the designed decision-making algorithm with the dynamics of the microgrid in a passive way, and, by leveraging passivity theory, we prove the convergence of the closed-loop system trajectory to a feasible operating point that is also a Nash equilibrium of the collective aggregative game.

The objective is to develop a control strategy for spreading the UAVs across the environment for monitoring purposes. We do not assume the availability of a central controller for UAV coordination, and the UAVs cooperate by exchanging information via a communication network. By considering possible cyberattacks acting on the UAV network, we propose a resilient distributed control scheme such that the UAVs locally compute their position set points to achieve an overall coverage configuration despite the malicious behaviors of some attacked UAVs. By relying on the Voronoi diagram-based coverage technique, we first address possible attack scenarios that can deteriorate a covering mission. Then, we consider a generalized Voronoi diagram-based coverage scheme that shows resilience against cyberattack scenarios. We also design an adaptive control strategy ensuring the convergence of the UAVs to a desired coverage configuration, whereas the UAV parameters (inertial matrix, drag coefficient, and so on) are not known. Mathematical analysis, simulation, and real-world experimental results show the effectiveness of the proposed distributed resilient control scheme.","PeriodicalId":13103,"journal":{"name":"IEEE Transactions on Control Systems Technology","volume":"32 6","pages":"2009-2022"},"PeriodicalIF":4.9,"publicationDate":"2024-04-26","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140799396","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"计算机科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

It is reported a nonlinear control scheme with bounded actions that guarantees global asymptotic stability despite input saturation, matched and unmatched disturbances, and parametric uncertainties. The control system has a double loop in a cascade configuration, where the outer loop has an integral (I) action driven by the joint deflection error. In addition, the inner loop has a nonlinear proportional-integral-derivative (PID-type) structure. Hence, an I-PID-type controller is obtained. The design methodology is based on a linear change of coordinates of the joint deflection and motor errors that allows the conclusion of global asymptotic stability via Lyapunov theory and the Barbashin–Krasovskii theorem. Sufficient conditions are explicitly stated and given in the form of matrix inequalities. Real-time experiments on a two-degrees-of-freedom flexible joint manipulator confirm the viability of the proposed controller, which exhibits better performance than the other two control algorithms.","PeriodicalId":13103,"journal":{"name":"IEEE Transactions on Control Systems Technology","volume":"32 6","pages":"2385-2393"},"PeriodicalIF":4.9,"publicationDate":"2024-04-26","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140799461","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"计算机科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
