LyaPy

Library for simulation of nonlinear control systems, control design, and Lyapunov-based learning.

Installation and usage

You will need Python3 and PIP package manager. Clone the repository in a directory of your choice, we will refer to it as DIR.

macOS

Navigate to the directory DIR. Create a virtual environment with target directory .venv with

python3 -m venv .venv

To activate the virtual environment, use

source .venv/bin/activate

When you want to deactivate the environment, use

deactivate

To install all dependencies, use

pip3 install -r requirements.txt

To run an example, use

python3 -m lyapy.examples.inverted_pendulum

Notation

Let x denote a state vector, t denote a time, eta denote an output, x_dot = dx/dt denote a state derivative, and u denote a control input.

Systems

System classes are the fundamental classes used to simulate dynamical systems.

System

Abstract class for simulating continuous-time dynamics of the form x_dot = f(t, x).

ControlSystem

System -> ControlSystem

Abstract class for simulating control systems of the form x_dot = f(x, u, t). u is computed by a Controller object only at specified time steps.

AffineControlSystem

System -> ControlSystem -> AffineControlSystem

Abstract class for simulating affine control systems of the form x_dot = f(x) + g(x) * u. As with a ControlSystem, u is computed by a Controller object only at specified time steps.

Outputs

Output classes define control objectives as functions of state and time. They are used to specify controllers and Lyapunov functions.

Output

Abstract class for evaluating control objectives of the form eta(x, t).

AffineDynamicOutput

Output -> AffineDynamicOutput

Abstract class for evaluating differentiable control objectives with dynamics eta_dot that decompose as eta_dot = drift(x, t) + decoupling(x, t) * u.

FeedbackLinearizableOutput

Output -> AffineDynamicOutput -> FeedbackLinearizableOutput

Abstract class for evaluating differentiable control objectives with valid vector relative degree. The dynamics eta_dot decompose as eta_dot = drift(x, t) + decoupling(x, t) * u.

The output eta(x, t) itself should also decompose as blocks [eta_1(x, t), ..., eta_k(x, t)], corresponding to relative degree vector [gamma_1, ..., gamma_k]. The block eta_i(x, t) should contain gamma_i elements in increasing derivative order of the i-th control objective. If eta(x, t) is not organized in this block structure, a permutation into this structure must be provided.

PDOutput

Output -> PDOutput

Abstract class for evaluating control objectives which contain proportional and derivative error components.

RoboticSystemOutput

Output -> AffineDynamicOutput -> FeedbackLinearizableOutput -> RoboticSystemOutput

Output -> PDOutput -> RoboticSystemOutput

Abstract class for evaluating differentiable control objectives, each with relative degree 2. The dynamics eta_dot decompose as eta_dot = drift(x, t) + decoupling(x, t) * u.

Proportional and derivative error components are defined as e_p(x, t) = y(x) - y_d(t) and e_d(x, t) = d/dt ( y(x) - y_d(t) ), respectively. The output eta(x, t) itself should also decompose as blocks [e_p(x, t), e_d(x, t)].

Lyapunov Functions

Lyapunov functions are defined on outputs and can be evaluated given a state and time.

LyapunovFunction

Abstract class for differentiable Lyapunov functions.

QuadraticLyapunovFunction

LyapunovFunction -> QuadraticLyapunovFunction

Class for Lyapunov functions of the form V(eta) = eta' * P * eta, for positive definite P.

ControlLyapunovFunction

LyapunovFunction -> ControlLyapunovFunction

Abstract class for differentiable Lyapunov functions for which V_dot can be computed as a function of state, control input, and time.

QuadraticControlLyapunovFunction

LyapunovFunction -> QuadraticLyapunovFunction -> QuadraticControlLyapunovFunction

LyapunovFunction -> ControlLyapunovFunction -> QuadraticControlLyapunovFunction

Class for Lyapunov functions of the form V(eta) = eta' * P * eta, for positive definite P. V_dot can be decomposed as drift(x, t) + decoupling(x, t) * u.

LearnedQuadraticControlLyapunovFunction

LyapunovFunction -> QuadraticLyapunovFunction -> QuadraticControlLyapunovFunction -> LearnedQuadraticControlLyapunovFunction

LyapunovFunction -> ControlLyapunovFunction -> QuadraticControlLyapunovFunction -> LearnedQuadraticControlLyapunovFunction

Class for Lyapunov functions of the form V(eta) = eta' * P * eta, for positive definite P. V_dot can be decomposed as drift(x, t) + decoupling(x, t) * u, where drift and decoupling are modified with additive estimation models b(x, t) and a(x, t), respectively.

Controllers

Controller classes specify actions as a function of state and time. The objective of a controller is specified through an Output object.

Controller

Abstract class for controllers.

ConstantController

Controller -> ConstantController

Class for controllers that output the same action at every state and time.

PDController

Controller -> PDController

Class for controllers with actions linear in proportional and derivative terms of a PDOutput.

LinearizingFeedbackController

Controller -> LinearizingFeedbackController

Class for controllers acting on FeedbackLinearizableOutput objects that pseudoinvert the output decoupling, subtract the output drift, and add an auxilliary control term linear in the output.

QPController

Controller -> QPController

Class for controllers that compute actions by solving quadratic programs. Quadratic programs may have one constraint, which may be slacked.

PerturbingController

Controller -> PerturbingController

Class for controllers that perturb nominal controllers with predetermined actions. The actions are scaled by the norm of the nominal controller, potentially offset from 0 so the perturbations may always be nonzero.

CombinedController

Controller -> CombinedController

Class for controllers specified as linear combinations of other controllers.
