Deep reinforcement learning control approach to mitigating actuator attacks

This paper investigates the deep reinforcement learning based secure control problem for cyber–physical systems (CPS) under false data injection attacks. We describe the CPS under attacks as a Markov decision process (MDP), based on which the secure controller design for CPS under attacks is formulated as an action policy learning using data....

Secure Control for Cyber-Physical Systems under Malicious Attacks

This article investigates the secure control problem for cyber-physical systems when the malicious data are injected into the cyber realm, which directly connects to the actuators. Based on moving target defense (MTD) and reinforcement learning, we propose a novel proactive and reactive defense control scheme. First, the system (A,B) is...

Learning Tracking Control for Cyber-Physical Systems

This paper investigates the problem of optimal tracking control for cyber-physical systems (CPS) when the cyber realm is attacked by denial-of-service (DoS) attacks which can prevent the control signal transmitting to the actuator. Attention is focused on how to design the optimal tracking control scheme without using the system dynamics and...
