Safe Leader-Follower Density Control via Higher-Order Mean-Field Control Barrier Functions
Cinzia Tomaselli, Mario di Bernardo
Mean-field control barrier functions (MF-CBFs) enforce safety of large-scale multi-agent systems at the level of densities, but existing formulations require the control to act dir…
Tutoring Reinforcement Learning via Feedback Control
Francesco De Lellis, Giovanni Russo, Mario di Bernardo
We introduce a control-tutored reinforcement learning (CTRL) algorithm. The idea is to enhance tabular learning algorithms by means of a control strategy with limited knowledge of…
Modeling Joint Improvisation between Human and Virtual Players in the Mirror Game
Chao Zhai, Francesco Alderisio, Piotr Slowinski +2
Joint improvisation is observed to emerge spontaneously among humans performing joint action tasks, and has been associated with high levels of movement synchrony and enhanced sens…
Design and Validation of a Virtual Player for Studying Interpersonal Coordination in the Mirror Game
Chao Zhai, Francesco Alderisio, Piotr Slowinski +2
The mirror game has been recently proposed as a simple, yet powerful paradigm for studying interpersonal interactions. It has been suggested that a virtual partner able to play the…
Contraction and incremental stability of switched Carathéodory systems using multiple norms
Wenlian Lu, Mario di Bernardo
In this paper, incremental exponential asymptotic stability of a class of switched Carathéodory nonlinear systems is studied based on the novel concept of measure of switched matri…
Distributed PID Control for Consensus of Homogeneous and Heterogeneous Networks
Daniel Burbano, Mario di Bernardo
We investigate the use of distributed PID actions to achieve consensus in networks of homogeneous and heterogeneous linear systems. Convergence of the strategy is proved for both c…
Contraction analysis of switched systems: the case of Caratheodory Systems and Networks
Mario di Bernardo, Davide Liuzza, Giovanni Russo
In this paper we extend to a generic class of piecewise smooth dynamical systems a fundamental tool for the analysis of convergence of smooth dynamical systems: contraction theory.…
