Rollover Prevention for Mobile Robots with Control Barrier Functions: Differentiator-Based Adaptation and Projection-to-State Safety

Ersin Das, Aaron D. Ames, Joel W. Burdick

This paper develops rollover prevention guarantees for mobile robots using control barrier function (CBF) theory, and demonstrates the method experimentally. We consider a safety m…

Robust Control Barrier Functions using Uncertainty Estimation with Application to Mobile Robots

Ersin Das, Joel W. Burdick

This paper proposes a safety-critical control design approach for nonlinear control affine systems in the presence of matched and unmatched uncertainties. Our constructive framewor…

Risk-Averse Receding Horizon Motion Planning for Obstacle Avoidance using Coherent Risk Measures

Anushri Dixit, Mohamadreza Ahmadi, Joel W. Burdick

This paper studies the problem of risk-averse receding horizon motion planning for agents with uncertain dynamics, in the presence of stochastic, dynamic obstacles. We propose a mo…

Distributionally Robust Model Predictive Control with Total Variation Distance

Anushri Dixit, Mohamadreza Ahmadi, Joel W. Burdick

This paper studies the problem of distributionally robust model predictive control (MPC) using total variation distance ambiguity sets. For a discrete-time linear system with addit…
