Maly, Matthias Rungger, Kai Weng Wong Speaker: Rüdiger Ehlers ExCAPE Expeditions in Computer Augmented Program Engineering 20 th August 2013 Speaker: Rüdiger Ehlers (UCB/Cornell) Synthesis for Robotics Philadelphia, 20 th August / 11
2 Overview Goal High-level programming of robots by end-users Challenges Physical systems Non-linear dynamics Open worlds Optimality of control Work by Roberto Villalba, photo by R. Ehlers Speaker: Rüdiger Ehlers (UCB/Cornell) Synthesis for Robotics Philadelphia, 20 th August / 11
3 Overview Goal High-level programming of robots by end-users Challenges Physical systems Non-linear dynamics Open worlds Optimality of control Work by Roberto Villalba, photo by R. Ehlers Speaker: Rüdiger Ehlers (UCB/Cornell) Synthesis for Robotics Philadelphia, 20 th August / 11
4 A Challenge Problem z 3 z 5 z 4 Table z 1 Kitchen z pickup z 0 Robot Waiter This challenge problem is: simple to understand, yet challenging, scalable, reactive, and z 2 has mission planning and hybrid control aspects.

6 Pushing the Frontier in Synthesis for Robotics 1 What to do if input/output spaces are infinite? Synthesis with Identifiers (UC Berkeley, Cornell) 2 What if our sensors and actuators are imprecise? Robust Synthesis (UCLA, Cornell) 3 What if the robot s task is not 100% achievable? Iterative Motion Planning for Hybrid Systems (Rice, Cornell) 4 What if we are interested in efficient solutions? Cost-optimal Synthesis (Cornell) 5 What if the environment behaves faulty? Error-resilient Synthesis (Cornell) Speaker: Rüdiger Ehlers (UCB/Cornell) Synthesis for Robotics Philadelphia, 20 th August / 11
7 Synthesis with Identifiers.##.# true order/a := itemordered start q 0 q 1 deliver q 2 deliver q 3 Main idea deliver itemdelivered a true Allow checking the realizability of many specifications that cannot be implemented in a finite-state fashion Synthesize a memory-conservative implementation in case of realizability ## # # Speaker: Rüdiger Ehlers (UCB/Cornell) Synthesis for Robotics Philadelphia, 20 th August / 11
