Abstract

This paper presents a novel multiclass first order macroscopic traffic model for mixed-autonomy in signalized urban networks, called MIXSim. Human driven vehicles (HDVs) and Connected and Automated Vehicles (CAVs) are represented as separate classes while origin-destination information is retained through commodity specific states. The local vehicle class composition and class specific driving behaviour characteristics determine the parameters of a composition-dependent triangular fundamental diagram. At signalized intersections, the composition of movement demand additionally determines the saturation flow rate, while the realized movement flow is constrained by demand, effective green time, and downstream receiving capacity. Numerical experiments investigate different CAV penetration levels and CAV time gaps, together with alternative signal control strategies. The numerical experiments illustrate how changes in CAV penetration and CAV time gap affect network performance under the tested conditions, and demonstrate the use of MIXSim for comparing signal control strategies across different mixed traffic regimes.

A flexible language model-assisted electronic design automation framework

Large language models (LLMs) are transforming electronic design automation (EDA) by enhancing design stages such as schematic design, simulation, netlist synthesis, and place-and-route. Existing methods primarily focus these optimisations within isolated open-source EDA tools and often lack the flexibility to handle multiple domains, such as analogue, digital, and radio-frequency design. In contrast, modern systems require to interface with commercial EDA environments, adhere to tool-specific operation rules, and incorporate feedback from design outcomes while supporting diverse design flows. We propose a versatile framework that uses LLMs to generate files compatible with commercial EDA tools and optimise designs using power-performance-area reports. This is accomplished by guiding the LLMs with tool constraints and feedback from design outputs to meet tool requirements and user specifications. The framework is used to evaluate case studies on operational transconductance amplifiers, microstrip patch antennas, and FPGA circuits.

Vector-field-guided constraint-following control for path following of uncertain mechanical systems

Achieving dynamics-level control is a critical yet challenging problem for accurate, high-speed geometric path-following of uncertain robotic systems. This paper proposes a vector-field-guided constraint-following control framework for geometric path following of uncertain mechanical systems. The key idea is to encode vector-field guidance as a velocity constraint, enabling a unified force/torque control design for a class of fully actuated and underactuated systems with desired paths that may be self-intersecting. A global, explicit error estimate connects constraint-following accuracy to path-following performance with convergence guarantees. An adaptive robust extension further addresses heterogeneous time-varying uncertainties with unknown bounds and ensures ultimately bounded path-following error. Applications to an underactuated aircraft system and a fully actuated manipulator system demonstrate the effectiveness and advantages of the framework.

Prospect Theoretic Approach to Pursuit-evasion Differential Games with Risk Aversion and Probability Sensitivity

This paper considers pursuit-evasion (PE) differential games in which the pursuer's and evader's irrational perceptions of environmental uncertainty lead to deviations from rational controllers. Firstly, the equivalent irrational behavioral models of risk aversion and probability sensitivity are established using Cumulative Prospect Theory (CPT). Secondly, sufficient conditions for capturability are established in terms of irrationality parameters. Finally, the CPT-Nash equilibrium is analyzed by Brouwer's fixed-point and self-consistency theorem. The new results reveal that irrational behaviors benefit the pursuer in some cases and the evader in others. Certain captures that are unachievable under rational behaviors can be achieved under irrational ones. By bridging irrational behavior with game-based control, a theoretical foundation is established for human-machine control systems.
