Talk Title: Verification and Control of Hybrid Systems with Application to Multiple Coordinating UAVs
Abstract: This talk will present reachability analysis as a tool for model checking and controller synthesis for hybrid systems. We consider the problem of guaranteeing reachability to a given desired subset of the state space, allowing for nonlinear dynamics in each discrete mode, and possibly non-convex state constraints. Techniques from hybrid system verification are presented and used to compute reachable sets, under bounded model disturbances that vary continuously, as well as under the effects of sampling and quantization. The resulting control policy is an explicit feedback law involving both a selection of continuous inputs and discrete switching commands at each time instant, based upon measurement of system state. We discuss real time implementations of this, and present several examples using our UAV testbeds as well as Boeing aircraft.
Host: Dr. G. Spedding

Viterbi School of Engineering Career Connections
Workshops & Infosessions
Join us for an information session to learn how you can make an immediate difference in the lives of your students right out of college, and then go on to be key player in social change in law, policy, medicine, business, and every field you can imagine. Come to learn about our graduate school and employer partnerships, package of financial incentives, and the 39 regions in which you could make and impact on educational inequity. Hear from USC alums that have entered Teach For America themselves, and why you should consider this post-graduate option.
Everyone has a part to play in this fight to close the achievement gap⦠Whatâs your impact going to be?
