Current Research:

    My research studies problems concerning the security of multi-robot systems, covering the key aspects such as threat identification methodologies and countermeasure developments. To ensure the security of multi-robot systems with the given objectives, this study proposes an attack diagnosis method and an attack-resilient control system for multi-robot systems. The main tasks to be achieved in this study are:
    (1) types of attack that can occur on a robotic system and corresponding system requirements are introduced to model and understand how a cyber adversary may affect the system operation;
    (2) an attack diagnosis scheme is developed to enable an agent in multi-robot systems continuously monitored for anomalies caused by adversary actions;
    (3) an attack-resilient controller is designed to adapt to the abnormal situation so that the overall system continues to satisfy its goal, thus mitigating the impact of attacks;
    (4) the performance of the proposed system is illustrated and evalutated using real robots.
    This work is sponsored by the U.S. Department of Justice.
