Highly Parallelized Data-Driven MPC for Minimal Intervention Shared Control

RSS 2019poster

We present a shared control paradigm that improves a user's ability to operate complex, dynamic systems in potentially dangerous environments without a priori knowledge of the user's objective. In this paradigm, the role of the autonomous partner is to improve the general safety of the system withou…

Learning Models for Shared Control of Human-Machine Systems with Unknown Dynamics

RSS 2017poster

We present a novel approach to shared control of human-machine systems. Our method assumes no a priori knowledge of the system dynamics. Instead, we learn both the dynamics and information about the user's interaction from observation through the use of the Koopman operator. Using the learned model,…

Trust Adaptation Leads to Lower Control Effort in Shared Control of Crane Automation

RA-L 2017

We present a shared-control framework predicated on a measure of trust in the operator, that is calculated automatically based on the quality of the interactions between a human and autonomous system. This measure of trust is built upon a control-theoretic foundation that rewards stable operation of
