ABSTRACT Quadrupedal robots operating in unstructured environments require adaptive control systems that can handle diverse terrain conditions without prior surface characterization. This paper presents an integrated control architecture that combines Model Predictive Control (MPC) with adaptive impedance control and SINDy‐based model corrections for ...

Recurrent neural networks for aerodynamic parameter estimation with Lyapunov stability analysis
Aircraft parameter estimation is crucial for designing accurate and reliable flight dynamic models, essential for integration into flight simulators and developing effective control laws. These parameters, encompassing aerodynamic characteristics, play a

Sliding Motions on Non‐Euclidean State Spaces: A Differential‐Geometric Perspective
ABSTRACT This paper extends sliding‐mode control theory to nonlinear systems evolving on smooth manifolds. Building on differential geometric methods, we reformulate Filippov's notion of solutions, characterize well‐defined vector fields on quotient spaces, and provide a consistent geometric definition of higher‐order sliding modes.

Construction of Lyapunov functions from first integrals for stochastic stability analysis
This paper explores the application of first integrals in constructing Lyapunov functions for stability analysis of dynamical systems in stochastic domains. A key advantage of using first integrals is their ability to embed system-specific structural and

Privacy‐Preserving Data‐Driven Distributed MPC for Heterogeneous Nonlinear Multi‐Agent Systems
ABSTRACT Distributed model predictive control (DMPC) is a cornerstone for coordinating multi‐agent systems, yet simultaneously ensuring data privacy, handling unknown nonlinear dynamics, and managing heterogeneous constraints remains an open challenge.

The role of identification in data‐driven policy iteration: A system theoretic study
Abstract The goal of this article is to study fundamental mechanisms behind so‐called indirect and direct data‐driven control for unknown systems. Specifically, we consider policy iteration applied to the linear quadratic regulator problem. Two iterative procedures, where data collected from the system are repeatedly used to compute new estimates of ...

Formation Control With Obstacle Avoidance of Underwater Swarms Based on Relative Visual Feedback
ABSTRACT Underwater multi‐robot and swarm systems require advanced methodologies for controlling collective behavior. Conventional single‐robot techniques, such as tethering, sonar imaging, and acoustic localization, are not scalable or effective for swarm applications.

ADAPT: An Autonomous Forklift for Construction Site Operation
ABSTRACT Efficient material logistics are critical in controlling costs and schedules in the construction industry. However, manual material handling remains prone to inefficiencies, delays, and safety risks. Autonomous forklifts offer a solution to streamline on‐site logistics, reducing reliance on human operators and mitigating labor shortages.

Enhancing generalized spectral clustering with embedding Laplacian graph regularization
Abstract An enhanced generalised spectral clustering framework that addresses the limitations of existing methods by incorporating the Laplacian graph and group effect into a regularisation term is presented. By doing so, the framework significantly enhances discrimination power and proves highly effective in handling noisy data.
