Specifically, an upper bound on the incremental controllability/observability function is provided by the corresponding differential energy function. Conversely, an upper bound on the differential controllability function can be estimated from the incremental controllability function.

The macroscopic model is defined through the aggregation of local kernels each representing a probabilistic feature of a single agent (e.g., its local sensing model), while the optimization is done with respect to a given cost index, e.g., the Kullback–Leibler divergence with respect to a target distribution. MACROPT improves the macroscopic model by microscopically coordinating the agents according to a distributed gradient-based policy. Concurrently, it allows each agent to locally learn the macroscopic model through a consensus-based mechanism. We analyze the resulting interconnected method through the lens of system theory.

While this development has improved their efficiency and safety, it also brings new potential risks, particularly cyber-attacks. Several studies have explored the security of vehicle dynamics against such threats. Among these dynamics, the vehicle’s lateral dynamics are crucial for maintaining stability and control during turns and maneuvers, making them a key focus of research. However, only a few recent studies have specifically investigated the security of lateral dynamics. This paper explores the potential for zero dynamics attacks on the vehicle’s lateral dynamics, where the attacker can remain undetected by leaving no trace on the system’s outputs. Three scenarios are studied: when the output includes yaw rate, lateral acceleration, and their combination. These two critical measurements of a vehicle’s lateral motion are accessible through the inertial measurement units (IMU) in every vehicle. For each scenario, the impact of zero dynamics attacks on system performance is analyzed and illustrated through simulations. Finally, the paper provides recommendations for securing vehicles’ lateral dynamics against such attacks.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":50489,"journal":{"name":"European Journal of Control","volume":"86 ","pages":"Article 101316"},"PeriodicalIF":2.6,"publicationDate":"2025-11-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145645446","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"计算机科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
