Identifying mathematical models of spatial-temporal processes from collected data along trajectories of mobile sensors is a baseline goal for active perception in complex environment. The controlled motion of mobile sensors induces information dynamics in the measurements taken for the underlying spatial-temporal processes, which are typically represented by models that have two major components: the trend model and the variation model. The trend model is often described by deterministic partial differential equations, and the variation model is often described by stochastic processes. Hence, information dynamics are constrained by these representations. Based on the information dynamics and the constraints, learning algorithms can be developed to identify parameters for spatial-temporal models.
Abstract: Diffusion processes refer to a class of stochastic processes driven by Brownian motion. They have been widely used in various applications, ranging from engineering to science to finance. In this talk, I will discuss my experiences with diffusion and how this powerful tool has shaped our research programs. I will go over several research projects in the area of control, inference, and machine learning, where we have extensively utilized tools from diffusion processes. In particular, I will present our research on four topics: i) covariance control in which we aim to regulate the uncertainties of a dynamic system; ii) distribution control where we seek to herd population dynamics; iii) Monte Carlo Markov chain sampling for general inference tasks; iv) and diffusion models for generative modeling in machine learning.

Abstract. This talk will showcase how exploiting structural properties in natural and engineered dynamical systems can greatly simplify design and verification tasks. We will begin with the structure of genetic circuits and multicellular interactions that generate spatiotemporal phenomena essential to developmental biology. We will then demonstrate our synthetic circuit designs that reproduced such phenomena in live cells. Moving from synthetic biology to engineering, we will address the problem of verifying performance and safety of autonomous systems, with control stacks that integrate control, planning, and decision-making layers. Vital to this verification process is reachability analysis, which is a major computational challenge for complex systems. We will explain how exploiting dynamical properties has helped us overcome this challenge, resulting in computationally efficient and scalable reachability methods. The talk will conclude with a discussion of open problems and research opportunities.

Abstract:Classical sampled-data control is based on periodic sensing and actuation. Due to recent developments in computer and communication technologies, a new type of large scale resource-constrained wireless embedded control systemsis emerging. It is desirable in these systems to limit the sensor and control communication to instances when the system needs attention. This tutorial session will provide an introduction to such event and self-triggered control systems. Event-triggered control is reactive and generates sensor sampling and control actuation when, for instance, the plant state deviates more than a certain threshold from a desired value. Self-triggered control, on the other hand, is proactive and computes the next sampling or actuation instance ahead of time. The basics of these control strategies will be presented together with a discussion on the differences between state feedback and output feedback for event-triggered control. The implementation of event- and self-triggered control using existing wireless communication technology and applications to wireless control in the process industry will also be discussed.

Abstract:The goal of most current advanced control systems is to guide aprocess to a target setpoint rapidly and reliably. Model predictivecontrol has become a popular technology in many applications becauseit can handle large, multivariable systems subject to hard constraintson states and inputs. The optimal steady-state setpoint is usuallyprovided by some other information management system that determines,among all steady states, which is the most profitable. For anincreasing number of applications, however, this hierarchicalseparation of information and purpose is no longer optimal ordesirable. A recently proposed alternative to the hierarchicaldecomposition is to take the economic objective directly as theobjective function of the control system. In this approach, known aseconomic MPC, the controller optimizes directly in real time theeconomic performance of the process, rather than tracking to asetpoint. The purpose of this tutorial is to explain how to designthese kinds of control systems and what kinds of closed-loopproperties one can achieve with them. We cover the following issues:asymptotic average performance; closed- loop stability andconvergence, strong duality and dissipativity; designing terminalcosts, terminal regions, and terminal periodic constraints. Severalexamples are included to illustrate these results.
Engineers responsible for developing CPS but lacking the appropriate education or training may not fully understand at an appropriate depth, on the one hand, the technical issues associated with the CPS software and hardware or, on the other hand, techniques for physical system modeling, energy and power, actuation, signal processing, and control. In addition, these engineers may be designing and implementing life-critical systems without appropriate formal training in CPS methods needed for verification and to assure safety, reliability, and security.
