Overview
The primary objective of this research is to advance methodologies for modeling, learning, and controlling networked cyber-physical systems (CPS). In particular, the project emphasizes integrating human users or operators into the feedback loop of CPS by leveraging both data-driven and knowledge-based approaches. The research is organized around three key thrust areas:
- modeling the dynamics of human-robot collaboration;
- addressing scalability and data-related challenges in human-in-the-loop CPS using learning-based methods; and
- designing robust adaptation and control strategies to safely and effectively guide these collaborative systems toward desired outcomes.
