An Empirical Study of Architectural Shift from Traditional to AI-Enabled Simulink Controllers

The paper reports an empirical study comparing traditional and AI‑enabled Simulink controllers, using a taxonomy of ten structural categories and nine functional roles. Analyzing 62 real‑world models and surveying 13 practitioners, it finds that subsystem organization dominates all controller architectures, AI models rely heavily on discrete dynamics and user‑defined abstraction, and constraint enforcement blocks largely disappear in AI‑enabled designs. These findings highlight architectural tensions and gaps between AI literature and practical implementation.

Generalizing from simulation

Our latest robotics techniques allow robot controllers, trained entirely in simulation and deployed on physical robots, to react to unplanned changes in the environment as they solve simple tasks. That is, we’ve used these techniques to build closed-loop systems rather than open-loop ones as before.

Estimating Inconsistency Response Surfaces under Uncertainty in Cyber-Physical System Development

The paper presents a method to estimate inconsistency response surfaces in Cyber‑Physical Systems (CPS) under uncertainty. By reformulating inconsistency as an intervention‑response modeling problem, the authors use Saltelli sampling and multi‑fidelity Monte Carlo estimation to generate datasets, then train a surrogate model that predicts inconsistency from propagated uncertainty geometry. Experiments on 48 scenarios across 10 CPS domains show that the surrogate matches Monte Carlo estimates while dramatically reducing evaluation time, enabling extensive sensitivity analysis and a gradient‑based consistency recourse method to identify minimal interventions that restore consistency.

Ingredients for robotics research

We’re releasing eight simulated robotics environments and a Baselines implementation of Hindsight Experience Replay, all developed for our research over the past year. We’ve used these environments to train models which work on physical robots.
