Spiking Reinforcement Learning Enhanced by Bioinspired Event Source of Multi-Dendrite Spiking Neuron and Dynamic Thresholds
Deep reinforcement learning (DRL) achieves success through the representational capabilities of deep neural networks (DNNs). Compared to DNNs, spiking neural networks (SNNs), known for their binary spike information processing, exhibit more biological characteristics. However, the challenge of using SNNs to simulate more biologically characteristic neuronal dynamics to optimize decision-making tasks...

Cyber-Attacks with Resource Constraints on Discrete Event Systems Under Supervisory Control
With the development of cyber-physical systems, system security faces more risks from cyber-attacks. In this work, we study the problem that an external attacker implements covert sensor and actuator attacks with resource constraints (the total resource consumption of the attacks is not greater than a given initial resource of the...

Resilient Nonlinear MPC with a Dynamic Event-Triggered Strategy Under DoS Attacks
Dear Editor, This letter deals with the stabilization of a resilient model predictive control (MPC) algorithm with a dynamic event-triggered mechanism subject to Denial-of-Service (DoS) attacks. Different from previous works, this letter is based on the designed threshold function to dynamically trigger and gives the upper bound conditions for intersampling...

Consensus Control Strategy for the Treatment of Tumour with Neuroadaptive Cellular Immunotherapy
This paper presents a novel neuro-adaptive cellular immunotherapy control strategy that leverages the high efficiency and applicability of chimeric antigen receptor-engineered T (CAR-T) cells in treating cancer. The proposed real-time control strategy aims to maximize tumor regression while ensuring the safety of the treatment. A dynamic growth model of cancer...

Chattering-Free Fault-Tolerant Cluster Control and Fault Direction Identification for HIL UAV Swarm with Pre-Specified Performance
In this paper, the problem of pre-specified performance fault-tolerant cluster consensus control and fault direction identification is solved for the human-in-the-loop (HIL) swarm unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) in the presence of possible non-identical and unknown direction faults (NUDFs) in the yaw chan-nel. The control strategy begins with the design of...

Adaptive Control of a Flexible Manipulator with Unknown Hysteresis and Intermittent Actuator Faults
In this study, we consider a single-link flexible manipulator in the presence of an unknown Bouc-Wen type of hysteresis and intermittent actuator faults. First, an inverse hysteresis dynamics model is introduced, and then the control input is divided into an expected input and an error compensator. Second, a novel adaptive...

Detection of Perfect Stealthy Attacks on Cyber-Physical Systems Subject to Measurement Quantizations: A Watermark-Based Strategy
In this paper, the attack detection problem is inves-tigated for a class of closed-loop systems subjected to unknown-but-bounded noises in the presence of stealthy attacks. The measurement outputs from the sensors are quantized before transmission. A specific type of perfect stealthy attack, which meets certain rather stringent conditions, is taken...

Decentralized Federated Learning Algorithm Under Adversary Eavesdropping
In this paper, we study the decentralized federated learning problem, which involves the collaborative training of a global model among multiple devices while ensuring data privacy. In classical federated learning, the communication channel between the devices poses a potential risk of compromising private information. To reduce the risk of adversary...

When Software Security Meets Large Language Models: A Survey
Software security poses substantial risks to our society because software has become part of our life. Numerous techniques have been proposed to resolve or mitigate the impact of software security issues. Among them, software testing and analysis are two of the critical methods, which significantly benefit from the advancements in...
