Synthesis of Partially Observed Jump-Diffusion Systems via Control Barrier Functions (2109.11477v1)

Abstract: In this paper, we study formal synthesis of control policies for partially observed jump-diffusion systems against complex logic specifications. Given a state estimator, we utilize a discretization-free approach for formal synthesis of control policies by using a notation of control barrier functions without requiring any knowledge of the estimation accuracy. Our goal is to synthesize an offline control policy providing (potentially maximizing) a lower bound on the probability that the trajectories of the partially observed jump-diffusion system satisfy some complex specifications expressed by deterministic finite automata. Finally, we illustrate the effectiveness of the proposed results by synthesizing a policy for a jet engine example.
