Functional role of synchronization: A mean-field control perspective
Prashant Mehta, Sean Meyn
The broad goal of the research surveyed in this article is to develop methods for understanding the aggregate behavior of interconnected dynamical systems, as found in mathematical…
Divergence metrics in the study of Markov and hidden Markov processes
Jin Won Kim, Amirhossein Taghvaei, Prashant G. Mehta
This paper is divided into two parts. The first part reviews the formulae for f-divergences in the study of continuous-time Markov processes and explores their applications in area…
Dual Ensemble Kalman Filter for Stochastic Optimal Control
Anant A. Joshi, Amirhossein Taghvaei, Prashant G. Mehta +1
In this paper, stochastic optimal control problems in continuous time and space are considered. In recent years, such problems have received renewed attention from the lens of rein…
Variance Decay Property for Filter Stability
Jin Won Kim, Prashant G. Mehta
This paper is concerned with the problem of nonlinear (stochastic) filter stability of a hidden Markov model (HMM) with white noise observations. A contribution is the variance dec…
Topology, dynamics, and control of an octopus-analog muscular hydrostat
Arman Tekinalp, Noel Naughton, Seung-Hyun Kim +5
Muscular hydrostats, such as octopus arms or elephant trunks, lack bones entirely, endowing them with exceptional dexterity and reconfigurability. Key to their unmatched ability to…
Hierarchical control and learning of a foraging CyberOctopus
Chia-Hsien Shih, Noel Naughton, Udit Halder +5
Inspired by the unique neurophysiology of the octopus, we propose a hierarchical framework that simplifies the coordination of multiple soft arms by decomposing control into high-l…
