An Energy-Based Mechanism for Compositional Behavior

Francesca Rossi, Veronica Centorrino, Francesco Bullo +1

Flexible intelligence relies on the ability to reuse previously acquired behaviors and combine them differently as circumstances change. In biological and artificial systems, this…

LogicGuard: Improving Embodied LLM agents through Temporal Logic based Critics

Anand Gokhale, Vaibhav Srivastava, Francesco Bullo

Large language models (LLMs) have shown promise in zero-shot and single step reasoning and decision making problems, but in long horizon sequential planning tasks, their errors com…

Similarity Matching Networks: Hebbian Learning and Convergence Over Multiple Time Scales

Veronica Centorrino, Francesco Bullo, Giovanni Russo

A recent breakthrough in biologically-plausible normative frameworks for dimensionality reduction is based upon the similarity matching cost function and the low-rank matrix approx…

Sampled-data Systems: Stability, Contractivity and Single-iteration Suboptimal MPC

Yiting Chen, Francesco Bullo, Emiliano Dall'Anese

This paper analyzes the stability of interconnected continuous-time (CT) and discrete-time (DT) systems coupled through sampling and zero-order hold mechanisms. The DT system updat…

Contractivity Analysis and Control Design for Lur'e Systems: Lipschitz, Incrementally Sector Bounded, and Monotone Nonlinearities

Ryotaro Shima, Alexander Davydov, Francesco Bullo

In this paper, we study the contractivity of Lur'e dynamical systems whose nonlinearity is either Lipschitz, incrementally sector bounded, or monotone. We consider both the discret…

Learning to Lie: Reinforcement Learning Attacks Damage Human-AI Teams and Teams of LLMs

Abed Kareem Musaffar, Anand Gokhale, Sirui Zeng +4

As artificial intelligence (AI) assistants become more widely adopted in safety-critical domains, it becomes important to develop safeguards against potential failures or adversari…

Proximal Gradient Dynamics and Feedback Control for Equality-Constrained Composite Optimization

Veronica Centorrino, Francesca Rossi, Francesco Bullo +1

This paper studies equality-constrained composite minimization problems. This class of problems, capturing regularization terms and inequality constraints, naturally arises in a wi…
