摘要:Autonomous synchronization presents a novel paradigm that circumvents the need for prior knowledge of target agent dynamics in the conventional synchronization of heterogeneous multiagent systems (MASs). It employs a dynamics update law and a state synchronizing control law, collectively termed a two-level controller, to facilitate synchronization in heterogeneous MASs autonomously. Nevertheless, the existing theory is constrained by the requirement of network topology information for calculat...

摘要:In this article, we propose a continuous feedback control strategy that steers a point-mass vehicle safely to a destination, in a quasi-optimal manner, in sphere worlds. The main idea consists in avoiding each obstacle via the shortest path on the cone's surface enclosing the obstacle and heading straight toward the target when the vehicle has a clear line of sight to the target location. In particular, almost global asymptotic stability of the target location is achieved in 2-D environments u...

摘要:In this article, we present a solution to the adaptive coordination control problem for networked Lagrange systems with unknown nonsmooth actuator nonlinearities, which can represent actuator failure/attack, deadzone, backlash, friction, and hysteresis in a unified framework. An auxiliary system is firstly designed for each subsystem over a directed network, in which the final synchronized value can be regulated by given specified initial values. Then, an adaptive controller is proposed for ne...

摘要:This note introduces the modified extended Kalman filter (MEKF), reformulating the EKF update step within a nonlinear regression framework. We propose a novel outlier-robust scheme, MCIC-MEKF, utilizing the minimum correntropy-induced cost (MCIC) criterion. We provide a theoretical analysis of its outlier robustness through stochastic stability, proving exponentially bounded mean square posterior estimation error under natural conditions. In addition, we present a technical approximation for t...

摘要:In this article, we address the robust distributed Nash equilibrium seeking problem of N-player games under switching networks and communication delays. The salient feature of this work is that the switching communication networks can be uniformly strongly connected, and the communication delays are allowed to be arbitrarily unknown, time-varying and bounded. To solve the problem, we construct a distributed estimator for each player to estimate all players' strategies through unreliable commun...

摘要:This article investigates the scalable input-to-state stability (sISS) property of networks of interconnected systems using the local Lyapunov functions of the individual systems or agents that compose the network. Ensuring sISS of the network prevents the amplification of disturbances through the network, provides uniform transient performance with respect to the number of interconnected systems, and enables network scalability. Our first contribution is to provide sufficient conditions for s...

摘要:Recently we proposed the $\mu$-modification for robust parameter adaptation, premised on the observation that only the parameter dynamics along the subspace with no persistent excitation must be rendered robust. Robustness thereby reduces to a problem of subspace estimation. This article proposes a new subspace estimator that recovers the non-persistently exciting (non-PE) subspace for a large class of regressors. This is achieved through a characterization of PE subspaces and the use of princ...

摘要:This article studies privacy-preserving problems focusing on the information that is available to the attacker. For a class of general linear average consensus algorithms, we identify the least information set required by an attacker to infer the initial value of the target node. We then propose a novel algorithm that protects the initial value effectively if the attacker fails to have this least information. Furthermore, we show that the initial value of nodes may be disclosed even if the att...

摘要:In this article, we examine the model reference adaptive control problem when the commonly used projection algorithm is utilized, subject to several common assumptions on the set of admissible parameters, in particular a compactness constraint as well as knowledge of the sign of the high-frequency gain. It is proven in the literature that for this setup, the closed-loop system is bounded-input bounded-state; since the closed-loop system is not linear time-invariant, this does not imply a bound...

摘要:While stability analysis is a mainstay for control science, especially computing regions of attraction of equilibrium points, until recently most stability analysis tools always required explicit knowledge of the model or a high-fidelity simulator representing the system at hand. In this work, a new data-driven Lyapunov analysis framework is proposed. Without using the model or its simulator, the proposed approach can learn a piecewise affine Lyapunov function with a finite and fixed offline d...
