Safety Verification of Stochastic Systems: A Set-Erosion Approach
Zishun Liu, Saber Jafarpour, Yongxin Chen
We study the safety verification problem for discrete-time stochastic systems. We propose an approach for safety verification termed set-erosion strategy that verifies the safety o…
Probabilistic Reachability Analysis of Stochastic Control Systems
Saber Jafarpour, Zishun Liu, Yongxin Chen
We address the reachability problem for continuous-time stochastic dynamic systems. Our objective is to present a unified framework that characterizes the reachable set of a dynami…
Data-Driven Convex Approach to Off-road Navigation via Linear Transfer Operators
Joseph Moyalan, Yongxin Chen, Umesh Vaidya
We consider the problem of optimal navigation control design for navigation on off-road terrain. We use traversability measure to characterize the degree of difficulty of navigatio…
Geometry of finite-time thermodynamic cycles with anisotropic thermal fluctuations
Olga Movilla Miangolarra, Amirhossein Taghvaei, Yongxin Chen +1
In contrast to the classical concept of a Carnot engine that alternates contact between heat baths of different temperatures, naturally occurring processes usually harvest energy f…
On Spectral Properties of Signed Laplacians with Connections to Eventual Positivity
Wei Chen, Dan Wang, Ji Liu +5
Signed graphs have appeared in a broad variety of applications, ranging from social networks to biological networks, from distributed control and computation to power systems. In t…
State tracking of linear ensembles via optimal mass transport
Yongxin Chen, Johan Karlsson
We consider the problems of tracking an ensemble of indistinguishable agents with linear dynamics based only on output measurements. In this setting, the dynamics of the agents can…
Stability Theory of Stochastic Models in Opinion Dynamics
Zahra Askarzadeh, Rui Fu, Abhishek Halder +2
We consider a certain class of nonlinear maps that preserve the probability simplex, i.e., stochastic maps, that are inspired by the DeGroot-Friedkin model of belief/opinion propag…
Optimal steering of a linear stochastic system to a final probability distribution, Part III
Yongxin Chen, Tryphon T. Georgiou, Michele Pavon
The subject of this work has its roots in the so called Schroedginer Bridge Problem (SBP) which asks for the most likely distribution of Brownian particles in their passage between…
