The theme of the special issue of IEEE Control Systems is entitled ‘Cyberphysical Human Systems: An Introduction to the Special Issue’. An article entitled ‘Human-in-the-Loop Robot Control for Human–Robot Collaboration’, by Ashwin P. Dani, Iman Salehi, Ghananeel Rotithor, Daniel Trombetta, and Harish Ravichandar, presents an estimation and control framework to estimate human intentions and synthesize a safe robot controller in a human–robot collaboration setting. Another article entitled Behavioral Economics for Human in-the-Loop Control Systems Design’, by Marius Protte, Rene Á Fahr, and Daniel E. Quevedo, investigates human behavior in control engineering settings, focusing on behavioral phenomena that are well established in behavioral economics literature.
