Gaussian Process-based Min-norm Stabilizing Controller for Control-Affine Systems with Uncertain Input Effects and Dynamics

2020-11-14 · Fernando Castañeda, Jason J. Choi, Bike Zhang, Claire J. Tomlin, Koushil Sreenath

This paper presents a method to design a min-norm Control Lyapunov Function (CLF)-based stabilizing controller for a control-affine system with uncertain dynamics using Gaussian Process (GP) regression. In order to estimate both state and input-dependent model uncertainty, we propose a novel compound kernel that captures the control-affine nature of the problem. Furthermore, by the use of GP Upper Confidence Bound analysis, we provide probabilistic bounds of the regression error, leading to the formulation of a CLF-based stability chance constraint which can be incorporated in a min-norm optimization problem. We show that this resulting optimization problem is convex, and we call it Gaussian Process-based Control Lyapunov Function Second-Order Cone Program (GP-CLF-SOCP). The data-collection process and the training of the GP regression model are carried out in an episodic learning fashion. We validate the proposed algorithm and controller in numerical simulations of an inverted pendulum and a kinematic bicycle model, resulting in stable trajectories which are very similar to the ones obtained if we actually knew the true plant dynamics.
