Risk-Aware Control of Systems with Quasi-Cone-Bounded Nonlinearities
Dhairya Patel, Margaret P. Chapman
We develop a tractable, rigorous approach to risk-aware control for a class of nonlinear systems. While many classical control methods reduce uncertainty to a simple average or a w…
Risk-Aware LQR with Temporally Coupled States
Chuanning Wei, Kin Fung Li, Dionysis Kalogerias +1
We formulate and solve a discrete-time linear-quadratic regulation (LQR) problem in a finite horizon thatpenalizes temporal variability and stochastic variability of the state traj…
Risk-Aware Finite-Horizon Social Optimal Control of Mean-Field Coupled Linear-Quadratic Subsystems
Dhairya Patel, Margaret Chapman
We formulate and solve an optimal control problem with cooperative, mean-field coupled linear-quadratic subsystems and additional risk-aware costs depending on the covariance and s…
Risk-Aware Robotics: Tail Risk Measures in Planning, Control, and Verification
Prithvi Akella, Anushri Dixit, Mohamadreza Ahmadi +5
The need for a systematic approach to risk assessment has increased in recent years due to the ubiquity of autonomous systems that alter our day-to-day experiences and their need f…
