摘要:This article proposes a unified framework of a distributed dynamic clustering method and a distributed control law to solve the cluster consensus problem for networked multiagent systems (MASs) with multiple leaders. Given any initial unclustered directed graph and any initial-state followers and leaders, the distributed dynamic clustering method aims to cluster each leader with at least one follower without interconnection among the clusters. This cuts some initially available edges online by...

摘要:RBM-MPC is a computationally efficient variant of model predictive control (MPC) in which the random batch method (RBM) is used to speed up the finite-horizon optimal control problems at each iteration. In this article, stability and convergence estimates are derived for RBM-MPC of unconstrained linear systems. The obtained estimates are validated in a numerical example that also shows a clear computational advantage of RBM-MPC.

摘要:In this article, we extend our results on the univariate non-Gaussian Bayesian filter using power moments (Wu and Lindquist, 2023) to the multivariate systems, which can be either linear or nonlinear. Doing this introduces several challenging problems, for example a positive parametrization of the density surrogate, which is not only a problem of filter design but also one of the multidimensional Hamburger moment problem. We propose a parametrization of the density surrogate with the proofs to...

摘要:This article considers the global leader-following event-triggered consensus problem for the input-constrained double-integrator multiagent systems. By utilizing a Lyapunov-like function consisting of a positive semidefinite term and an integral term, a novel bounded static linear event-triggered protocol is proposed to ensure that the global leader-following consensus problem is solved in a fully distributed manner for all undirected communication graphs. In order to avoid continuously monito...

摘要:To reduce the need for high gains (reduced control weighting) for fast convergence in norm optimal iterative learning control (NOILC), this article presents a simple data-driven mechanism for accelerating the convergence of low gain feedback NOILC controllers. The method uses a modification to the reference signal on each NOILC iteration using the measured tracking error from the previous iteration. The basic algorithm is equivalent to a gradient iteration combined with an NOILC iteration. The...

摘要:Reinforcement learning algorithms are commonly used to control dynamical systems with measurable state variables. If the dynamical system is partially observable, reinforcement learning algorithms are modified to compensate for the effect of partial observability. One common approach is to feed a finite history of input-output data instead of the state variable. In this article, we study and quantify the effect of this approach in linear Gaussian systems with quadratic costs. We coin the conce...

摘要:A novel model predictive control strategy is proposed to determine an optimal control signal, which steers the states of a constraint piecewise affine system to a desired target point through suboptimal state trajectories, based on quadratic performance criteria. In piecewise affine systems, the number of possible switching sequences grows exponentially with the length of the prediction horizon that leads to multiple trajectories in the receding horizon strategy; and should be considered in ca...

摘要:Distributionally robust control (DRC) aims to effectively manage distributional ambiguity in stochastic systems. While most existing works address inaccurate distributional information in fully observable settings, we consider a partially observable DRC problem for discrete-time linear systems using the Wasserstein metric. For a tractable solution, we propose a novel approximation method exploiting the Gelbrich bound of the Wasserstein distance. Using techniques from modern distributionally ro...

摘要:Online collision-free trajectory generation within a shared workspace is fundamental for most multirobot applications. However, many widely-used methods based on model predictive control (MPC) lack theoretical guarantees on the feasibility of underlying optimization. Furthermore, when applied in a distributed manner without a central coordinator, deadlocks often occur where several robots block each other indefinitely. Whereas heuristic methods such as introducing random perturbations exist, n...

摘要:We aim to maximize the energy efficiency, gauged as average energy cost per job, in a large-scale server farm with various storage or/and computing components modeled as parallel abstracted servers. Each server operates in multiple power modes characterized by potentially different service and energy consumption rates. The heterogeneity of servers and multiple power modes complicate the maximization problem, where optimal solutions are generally intractable. Relying on the Whittle relaxation t...
