Outline

This paper proposes a data-driven charging and safety protocol design approach to address the tradeoff between charging speed and aging in lithium-ion batteries. Using a high-fidelity, physics-based battery model, we propose a hybrid control strategy that combines reinforcement learning (RL) and data-driven formal methods via counterexample-guided inductive synthesis. RL synthesizes individual controllers and, through data-driven abstraction, decomposes them into a structure that switches controllers based on initial battery output measurements. We implement a hybrid system by combining 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:
We present a novel approach that effectively addresses the trade-off between charging speed and aging in lithium-ion batteries by leveraging data-driven methods.
By combining reinforcement learning and data-driven formal methods, we can design hybrid control strategies that take both performance and safety into account.
Abstraction techniques can improve the stability of the system by providing probabilistic guarantees on closed-loop performance.
Limitations:
There is a lack of experimental results on the application and performance evaluation of the proposed method to real battery systems.
Validation of the accuracy and generalization ability of high-fidelity physics-based battery models is required.
Further analysis is needed on the accuracy and efficiency of data-driven abstraction.
Dependencies may exist regarding specific battery chemistries and designs. Further research is needed to determine generalizability.
