Visible to the public CPS: GOALI: Synergy: Maneuver and Data Optimization for High Confidence Testing of Future Automotive CPS

Our research addresses urgent challenges in high confidence testing of automotive systems due to on-going and anticipated introduction of advanced, connected, and autonomous vehicle technologies. We pursue the development of tools for maneuver and data optimization to determine test trajectories and scenarios to facilitate vehicle testing. Our approaches exploit game theoretic traffic interaction modeling to inform in-traffic relevant trajectories, model-free optimization to identify trajectories falsifying time domain specifications, and the development of Smart Black Box

Visible to the public CPS: Synergy: High-Fidelity, Scalable, Open-Access Cyber Security Testbed for Accelerating Smart Grid Innovations and Deployment

The electric power grid is a complex cyber-physical system (CPS) that forms the lifeline of modern society. Cybersecurity and resiliency of the power grid is of paramount importance to national security and economic well-being. CPS security testbeds are enabling technologies that provide realistic experimental platforms for the evaluation and validation of security technologies within controlled environments, and they also enable the exploration of robust security solutions.

Visible to the public CPS: Synergy: Distributed Sensing, Learning and Control in Dynamic Environments

The objective of this project is to improve the performance of autonomous systems in dynamic environments by integrating perception, planning paradigms, learning, and databases. For the next generation of autonomous systems to be truly effective in terms of tangible performance improvements (e.g., long-term operations, complex and rapidly changing environments), a new level of intelligence must be attained.

Visible to the public CPS: Frontier: SONYC: A Cyber-Physical System for Monitoring, Analysis and Mitigation of Urban Noise Pollution

The SONYC project is a smart cities initiative focused on developing a cyber-physical system (CPS) for the monitoring, analysis and mitigation of urban noise pollution. Noise pollution is one of the topmost quality of life issues for urban residents in the U.S. with proven effects on health, education, the economy, and the environment.
