In this study, we use phase-space analysis to derive the explicit solution of the optimal control problem that minimize the infection peak given budget limitation. The optimal policy obtained is an adaptive control where the isolation rate dynamically adjusts according to the current epidemic state. We show that targeted isolation control policy achieves the same infection peak as transmission reduction policies under equivalent budgets, while avoiding broad socio-economic disruptions. Additionally, we show through numerical simulations that the control resolves the epidemic faster and reduces total infections.

The framework is first presented in a general setting, emphasizing stability conditions under practical limits, and then applied to a case study in autonomous driving. The core difficulty lies in analytically deriving the feedback gains to satisfy both the Hurwitz stability criteria and desired transient (damping) specifications, while maintaining a low-complexity structure. Using a simplified vehicle model, two controllers are compared: a basic proportional feedback law and a Lyapunov-stable controller (LSC) that explicitly incorporates lateral deviation into the control policy. Both controllers are evaluated on real-world driving trajectories from the comma2k19 dataset. Simulation results demonstrate that the LSC significantly improves lane-keeping performance and accelerates convergence to the equilibrium compared to the baseline controller. The novelty of this work lies in bridging Lyapunov stability analysis with practical control evaluation on real driving data, offering a systematic approach to controller design.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":29926,"journal":{"name":"IFAC Journal of Systems and Control","volume":"35 ","pages":"Article 100359"},"PeriodicalIF":1.8,"publicationDate":"2026-03-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145925980","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In particular, the direct MRACS excels in responsiveness; however, it suffers from the problem that its adjustable parameters do not converge to their true values. To converge the adjustable parameters to their true values, a conventional method involves injecting a probing signal to satisfy the PE property; however, this compromises the control performance. Thus, a control error-based probing signal auto-elimination scheme is proposed in this study, which adaptively regulates the probing signal based solely on the control error without predefined elimination timing. This enables the identification of adjustable parameters during transient phases, while automatically suppressing the probing signal once sufficient tracking performance is achieved. Furthermore, unlike existing probing-based methods, the proposed scheme allows re-injection of the probing signal when performance degradation is detected, thereby achieving a compatible realisation of identification and control within a single framework. Therefore, the proposed scheme simultaneously contributes to the identification and control, significantly reducing the tracking error. The validity of the proposed structure was confirmed by simulations under plant variation conditions.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":29926,"journal":{"name":"IFAC Journal of Systems and Control","volume":"35 ","pages":"Article 100375"},"PeriodicalIF":1.8,"publicationDate":"2026-03-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"146077720","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

With further analysis regarding the asymptotic covariance matrix of the identified parameters, we also prove that the proposed structure provides a clear separation between the physics-based and learning components of the augmentation structure.
