LLA-MPC on Embedded Hardware: Rapid Adaptive Control with Thousands of Parallel Models

We present a generalized implementation of Look-Back and Look-Ahead Adaptive Model Predictive Control (LLA-MPC), a learning-free framework for real-time, rapid adaptive system identification and control. The original formulation was demonstrated only in simulation, for autonomous racing with a fixed model structure. Ou...

LBA-CBF: Rapidly Adaptive Safety Filters via Parallel Dynamics Inference

Control barrier functions (CBFs) certify commands through an assumed dynamics model, so an abrupt, unmeasured regime change can undermine the certificate exactly when safety matters most. We present Look-Back Adaptive Control Barrier Functions (LBA-CBF), which rank a finite bank of candidate dynamics by recent predicti...

Generalizable Optimal Control with Transformers: Closed-Loop Certification and Near-Optimality Guarantees

This letter develops closed-loop performance certificates for a transformer-based feedback policy. The policy is trained to imitate optimal Linear Quadratic Regulator (LQR) control across a family of heterogeneous Multiple-Input, Multiple-Output (MIMO) Linear Time-Invariant (LTI) systems. First, we establish a finite-s...
