We provide a new approach to synthesize controllers for nonlinear continuous dynamical systems with
control against safety properties. The controllers are based on neural networks (NNs).
To certify the safety property we utilize barrier functions, which are represented by NNs as well.
We train the controller-NN and barrier-NN simultaneously, achieving a verification-in-the-loop synthesis.
We provide a prototype tool nncontroller with a number of case studies.
The experiment results confirm the feasibility and efficacy of our approach.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
