For most of my professional research career, I have sought more deterministic mechanisms for solving various engineering problems. My focus has always been on systems that combine the clean and neat world of computation with the messy and unpredictable physical world (cyber-physical systems). Given the messiness and unpredictability of the real world, why the obsession with determinism1? An argument that…

Introduction There is considerable interest to use modules developed using deep learning in embedded software for complex cyber-physical systems (CPS) such as automobiles, aerial vehicles, and robots. Traditionally, such CPS applications have relied on human supervision for defining high-level plans, while using automated control techniques for lower level tasks; e.g., humans driving automobiles or pilots manually flying airplanes. Control engineering…
