融合可达性分析的采样控制,兼顾安全与性能

DualGuard MPPI: Safe and Performant Optimal Control by Combining Sampling-Based MPC and Hamilton-Jacobi Reachability

  • 在MPPI采样中引入哈密顿-雅可比可达性分析,确保每条轨迹安全
  • 相同采样数下有效方差降低,性能显著优于传统MPPI方法
  • 适合对安全性要求高的机器人控制场景,如自动驾驶

设计既安全又高性能的控制器本质上极具挑战。该问题可建模为带有约束的最优控制问题,其中代价函数代表性能指标,安全则作为约束条件。尽管基于采样的方法(如模型预测路径积分,MPPI)在解决复杂最优控制问题方面表现出色,但通常难以严格保证安全约束。为此,本文提出DualGuard-MPPI框架,将哈密顿-雅可比可达性分析融入MPPI采样过程,确保生成的所有样本均对系统具有可证明的安全性。该集成不仅强化了安全约束的执行,还提升了环境探索效率,在相同采样数量下降低了有效采样方差,从而实现更优的性能优化。通过多个仿真和硬件实验验证,所提方法在不牺牲安全性的前提下,相比现有MPPI方法实现了显著更高的性能表现。

原文摘要 · Abstract (English)

Designing controllers that are both safe and performant is inherently challenging. This co-optimization can be formulated as a constrained optimal control problem, where the cost function represents the performance criterion and safety is specified as a constraint. While sampling-based methods, such as Model Predictive Path Integral (MPPI) control, have shown great promise in tackling complex optimal control problems, they often struggle to enforce safety constraints. To address this limitation, we propose DualGuard-MPPI, a novel framework for solving safety-constrained optimal control problems. Our approach integrates Hamilton-Jacobi reachability analysis within the MPPI sampling process to ensure that all generated samples are provably safe for the system. On the one hand, this integration allows DualGuard-MPPI to enforce strict safety constraints; at the same time, it facilitates a more effective exploration of the environment with the same number of samples, reducing the effective sampling variance and leading to better performance optimization. Through several simulations and hardware experiments, we demonstrate that the proposed approach achieves much higher performance compared to existing MPPI methods, without compromising safety.
