| Abstract | Motivated by the provably-correct execution of complex reactive tasks for robots with nonlinear, under-actuated dynamics, our focus is on the synthesis of a library of low-level controllers that implements the behaviors of a high-level controller. The synthesized controllers should allow the robot to react to its environment whenever dynamically feasible given the geometry of the workspace. For any behaviors that cannot guarantee the task given the dynamics, such behaviors should be transformed into dynamically-informative revisions to the high-level task. We therefore propose a framework for synthesizing such low-level controllers and, moreover, offer an approach for re-partitioning and abstracting the system based on the synthesized controller library. We accomplish these goals by introducing a synthesis approach that we call conforming funnels, in which controllers are synthesized with respect to the given high-level behaviors, the geometrical constraints of the workspace, and a robot dynamics model. Our approach computes controllers using a verification approach that optimizes over a wide range of possible controllers to guarantee the geometrical constraints are satisfied. We also devise an algorithm that uses the controllers to re-partition the workspace and automatically adapt the high-level specification with a new discrete abstraction generated on these new partitions. We demonstrate the controllers generated by our synthesis framework in an experimental setting with a KUKA youBot executing a box transportation task. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
