End-to-End Learning of Safe Optimal Feedback Control in High Dimensions with Control Barrier Function Layers

Xingjian Li, Kelvin Kan, Deepanshu Verma +3

We consider the problem of learning high-dimensional semi-global feedback controllers under hard safety constraints enforced by control barrier functions (CBFs). Incorporating CBFs…

Path Planning in Physically Viable World Models

Su Ann Low, Cheng-Hsi Hsiao, Xingjian Li +3

Robots deployed in unstructured outdoor environments often plan from scene reconstructions collected before deployment because operators cannot remap large or remote sites before e…

Physically Viable World Models: A Case for Query-Conditioned Embodied AI

Adam J. Thorpe, Stepan Tretiakov, Cheng-Hsi Hsiao +6

World models for embodied AI must be physically viable: constructed to answer intervention queries by representing the physical structure governing action outcomes, rather than mer…

Zero-Shot Function Encoder-Based Differentiable Predictive Control

Hassan Iqbal, Xingjian Li, Tyler Ingebrand +4

We introduce a differentiable framework for zero-shot adaptive control over parametric families of nonlinear dynamical systems. Our approach integrates a function encoder-based neu…

Neural Operators for Multi-Task Control and Adaptation

David Sewell, Xingjian Li, Stepan Tretiakov +2

Neural operator methods have emerged as powerful tools for learning mappings between infinite-dimensional function spaces, yet their potential in optimal control remains largely un…

SetONet: A Set-Based Operator Network for Solving PDEs with Variable-Input Sampling

Stepan Tretiakov, Xingjian Li, Krishna Kumar

Most neural-operator surrogates for PDEs inherit from DeepONet-style formulations the requirement that the input function be sampled at a fixed, ordered set of sensors. This assump…
