Outline

This paper proposes a data-driven charging and safety protocol design approach using a high-fidelity, physics-based battery model to address the tradeoff between charging speed and battery life degradation. Leveraging the Counterexample-Guided Inductive Synthesis technique, we present a hybrid control strategy that combines reinforcement learning (RL) and data-driven formal methods. We synthesize individual controllers using RL, and then partition the controllers into structures that switch based on initial battery output measurements using data-driven abstraction. The resulting hybrid system combines discrete selection between RL-based controllers with continuous battery dynamics. Once the design satisfies the requirements, abstraction provides probabilistic guarantees on closed-loop performance.

Takeaways, Limitations

Takeaways:
A novel approach to effectively address battery charging speed and lifespan degradation using data-driven methods is presented.
Design and safety assurance of hybrid control strategies by combining reinforcement learning and data-driven formal methods.
Providing probabilistic guarantees on closed-loop system performance through abstraction techniques.
Limitations:
Lack of experimental validation of the proposed method on actual battery systems.
Dependence on the accuracy and generalization performance of high-fidelity physics-based battery models.
Further research is needed on the accuracy and efficiency of data-driven abstraction.
Generalizability across a variety of battery chemistries and operating conditions needs to be examined.
