Reachable Predictive Control: A Novel Control Algorithm for Nonlinear Systems with Unknown Dynamics and its Practical Applications

Taha Shafa, Yiming Meng, Melkior Ornik

This paper proposes an algorithm capable of driving a system to follow a piecewise linear trajectory without prior knowledge of the system dynamics. Motivated by a critical failure…

Online Learning and Control Synthesis for Reachable Paths of Unknown Nonlinear Systems

Yiming Meng, Taha Shafa, Jesse Wei +1

In this paper, we present a novel method to drive a nonlinear system to a desired state, with limited a priori knowledge of its dynamic model: local dynamics at a single point and…

Reachability of Nonlinear Systems with Unknown Dynamics

Taha Shafa, Melkior Ornik

Determining the reachable set for a given nonlinear control system is crucial for system control and planning. However, computing such a set is impossible if the system's dynamics…
