Geometric Control for Load Transportation with Quadrotor UAVs by Elastic Cables
Jacob R. Goodman, Juan S. Cely, Thomas Beckers +1
Groups of unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) are increasingly utilized in transportation task as the combined strength allows to increase the maximum payload. However, the resulting m…
Safe Online Learning-based Formation Control of Multi-Agent Systems with Gaussian Processes
Thomas Beckers, Sandra Hirche, Leonardo Colombo
Formation control algorithms for multi-agent systems have gained much attention in the recent years due to the increasing amount of mobile and aerial robotic swarms. The design of…
An Introduction to Gaussian Process Models
Thomas Beckers
Within the past two decades, Gaussian process regression has been increasingly used for modeling dynamical systems due to some beneficial properties such as the bias variance trade…
The Impact of Data on the Stability of Learning-Based Control- Extended Version
Armin Lederer, Alexandre Capone, Thomas Beckers +2
Despite the existence of formal guarantees for learning-based control approaches, the relationship between data and control performance is still poorly understood. In this paper, w…
Localized active learning of Gaussian process state space models
Alexandre Capone, Jonas Umlauft, Thomas Beckers +2
The performance of learning-based control techniques crucially depends on how effectively the system is explored. While most exploration techniques aim to achieve a globally accura…
Closed-loop Model Selection for Kernel-based Models using Bayesian Optimization
Thomas Beckers, Somil Bansal, Claire J. Tomlin +1
Kernel-based nonparametric models have become very attractive for model-based control approaches for nonlinear systems. However, the selection of the kernel and its hyperparameters…
