A Unified Framework for Continuous-time Unconstrained Distributed Optimization
Behrouz Touri, Bahman Gharesifard
We introduce a class of distributed nonlinear control systems, termed as the flow-tracker dynamics, which capture phenomena where the average state is controlled by the average con…
Flexible-step Model Predictive Control based on Generalized Lyapunov Functions
Annika Fürnsinn, Christian Ebenbauer, Bahman Gharesifard
We present a novel nonlinear model predictive control (MPC) scheme with relaxed stability criteria, based on the idea of generalized discrete-time control Lyapunov functions. These…
Logarithmic Regret in Adaptive Control of Noisy Linear Quadratic Regulator Systems Using Hints
Mohammad Akbari, Bahman Gharesifard, Tamas Linder
The problem of regret minimization for online adaptive control of linear-quadratic systems is studied. In this problem, the true system transition parameters (matrices and )…
Event-Triggered Control for Discrete-Time Delay Systems
Kexue Zhang, Elena Braverman, Bahman Gharesifard
This study focuses on event-triggered control of nonlinear discrete-time systems with time delays. Based on a Lyapunov-Krasovskii type input-to-state stability result, we propose a…
A Note on Stability of Event-Triggered Control Systems with Time Delays
Kexue Zhang, Bahman Gharesifard, Elena Braverman
This note studies stability of event-triggered control systems with the event-triggered control algorithm proposed in [1]. We construct a novel Halanay-type inequality, which is us…
Event-Triggered Control for Nonlinear Time-Delay Systems
Kexue Zhang, Bahman Gharesifard, Elena Braverman
This article studies the event-triggered control problem of general nonlinear systems with time delay. A novel event-triggering scheme is presented with two tunable design paramete…
Classification Utility, Fairness, and Compactness via Tunable Information Bottleneck and Rényi Measures
Adam Gronowski, William Paul, Fady Alajaji +2
Designing machine learning algorithms that are accurate yet fair, not discriminating based on any sensitive attribute, is of paramount importance for society to accept AI for criti…
Neural ODE Control for Trajectory Approximation of Continuity Equation
Karthik Elamvazhuthi, Bahman Gharesifard, Andrea Bertozzi +1
We consider the controllability problem for the continuity equation, corresponding to neural ordinary differential equations (ODEs), which describes how a probability measure is pu…
Renyi Fair Information Bottleneck for Image Classification
Adam Gronowski, William Paul, Fady Alajaji +2
We develop a novel method for ensuring fairness in machine learning which we term as the Renyi Fair Information Bottleneck (RFIB). We consider two different fairness constraints -…
A Small Gain Analysis of Single Timescale Actor Critic
Alex Olshevsky, Bahman Gharesifard
We consider a version of actor-critic which uses proportional step-sizes and only one critic update with a single sample from the stationary distribution per actor step. We provide…
Submodular Maximization with Limited Function Access
Andrew Downie, Bahman Gharesifard, Stephen L. Smith
We consider a class of submodular maximization problems in which decision-makers have limited access to the objective function. We explore scenarios where the decision-maker can ob…
