MILPによる実時間最適制御器合成：メトリック時相論理仕様に基づく手法

原文アブストラクト

The fundamental idea of this work is to synthesize reactive controllers such that closed-loop execution trajectories of the system satisfy desired specifications that ensure correct system behaviors, while optimizing a desired performance criteria. In our approach, the correctness of a system's behavior can be defined according to the system's relation to the environment, for example, the output trajectories of the system terminate in a goal set without entering an unsafe set. Using Metric Temporal Logic (MTL) specifications we can further capture complex system behaviors and timing requirements, such as the output trajectories must pass through a number of way-points within a certain time frame before terminating in the goal set. Given a Mixed Logical Dynamical (MLD) system and system specifications in terms of MTL formula or simpler reach-avoid specifications, our goal is to find a closed-loop trajectory that satisfies the specifications, in non-deterministic environments. Using an MILP framework we search over the space of input signals to obtain such valid trajectories of the system, by adding constraints to satisfy the MTL formula only when necessary, to avoid the exponential complexity of solving MILP problems. We also present experimental results for planning a path for a mobile robot through a dynamically changing environment with a desired task specification.
