Fast, Smooth, and Safe: Implicit Control Barrier Functions through Reach-Avoid Differential Dynamic Programming
Athindran Ramesh Kumar, Kai-Chieh Hsu, Peter J. Ramadge +1
Safety is a central requirement for autonomous system operation across domains. Hamilton-Jacobi (HJ) reachability analysis can be used to construct "least-restrictive" safety filte…
Malleable Agents for Re-Configurable Robotic Manipulators
Athindran Ramesh Kumar, Gurudutt Hosangadi
Re-configurable robots have more utility and flexibility for many real-world tasks. Designing a learning agent to operate such robots requires adapting to different configurations.…
ProBF: Learning Probabilistic Safety Certificates with Barrier Functions
Athindran Ramesh Kumar, Sulin Liu, Jaime F. Fisac +2
Safety-critical applications require controllers/policies that can guarantee safety with high confidence. The control barrier function is a useful tool to guarantee safety if we ha…
DiffLoop: Tuning PID controllers by differentiating through the feedback loop
Athindran Ramesh Kumar, Peter J. Ramadge
Since most industrial control applications use PID controllers, PID tuning and anti-windup measures are significant problems. This paper investigates tuning the feedback gains of a…
Pack and Detect: Fast Object Detection in Videos Using Region-of-Interest Packing
Athindran Ramesh Kumar, Balaraman Ravindran, Anand Raghunathan
Object detection in videos is an important task in computer vision for various applications such as object tracking, video summarization and video search. Although great progress h…
