摘要：The applicability of model-based online reinforcement learning algorithms is often limited by the amount of exploration required for learning the environment model to the desired level of accuracy. A promising approach to addressing this issue is to exploit side information, available either a priori or during the agent's mission, for learning the unknown dynamics. Side information in our context refers to information in the form of bounds on the differences between transition probabilities at...

摘要：This article is dedicated to the stability and stabilization of almost periodic piecewise linear systems (APPLSs) with the uncertain dwell time of subsystems. Taking into account the uncertainty in dwell time for the first time, a novel mixed-mode time-varying Lyapunov function is constructed. A sufficient condition is proposed to guarantee the exponential stability of the system, where the switching instants over each period are unknown and inaccessible except their bounds. Moreover, a period...

摘要：In this technical article we consider a distributed analysis of a plant given by local petri net models (components) that interact via shared transitions. For each component, there is a local agent that performs local calculations and exchanges information with its neighbours for monitoring the plant. We relax the standard requirement that the interaction graph between components is a tree and, for the general case, we investigate under which conditions the local consistency of the local estim...

摘要：This article is concerned with the output feedback stabilization of a reaction-diffusion equation by means of bounded control inputs in the presence of saturations. Using a finite-dimensional controller composed of an observer coupled with a finite-dimensional state-feedback, we derive a set of conditions ensuring the stability of the closed-loop plant while estimating the associated domain of attraction in the presence of saturations. This set of conditions is shown to be always feasible for ...

摘要：In this article, we study a class of discrete-time decentralized linear-quadratic-Gaussian (LQG) control problems with two controllers and $d$-step delayed information sharing pattern. An explicit form of the pair of optimal linear controllers is obtained in terms of backward Riccati equations and forward equations of estimation error covariance. To overcome the difficulty that arises due to the coupling of the backward-forward equations, we propose a forward iteration approach to derive a ste...

摘要：This article investigates discrete-time evolutionary games with a general stochastic imitation rule on the toroidal grid, which is a grid network with periodic boundary conditions. The imitation rule has been considered as a fundamental rule in the field of evolutionary game theory, while the grid is treated as the most basic network and has been widely used in the research of spatial evolutionary games. However, current investigations of evolutionary games on grids mainly use simulations or a...

摘要：This article studies a class of distributed nonsmooth convex optimization problems subject to local set constraints and coupled nonlinear inequality constraints. In particular, each local objective function consists of one differentiable convex function and multiple nonsmooth convex functions. By applying multiple proximal splittings and derivative feedback techniques, a new distributed continuous-time multiproximal algorithm is developed, whose dynamics satisfies Lipschitz continuity even if ...

摘要：We consider minimizing a sum of agent-specific nondifferentiable merely convex functions over the solution set of a variational inequality (VI) problem in that each agent is associated with a local monotone mapping. This problem finds an application in computation of the best equilibrium in nonlinear complementarity problems arising in transportation networks. We develop an iteratively regularized incremental gradient method where at each iteration, agents communicate over a directed cycle gra...

摘要：In this article, the issues of secure estimation, attack reconstruction, and isolation are addressed for cyber-physical systems in the presence of malicious attacks. It is assumed that disturbances and noises are unknown-but-bounded. Based on different rank constraints, both zonotopic completely unknown input observer and zonotopic partially unknown input observer are designed to estimate system states. Then, malicious attacks are reconstructed and isolated based on the proposed zonotopic obse...

摘要：In this article, observable stochastic graphs and detetectable stochastic graphs are, respectively, defined with the detailed implementation for the observability and detectability of stochastic discrete-time and discrete-state dynamic systems. More specifically, they are generally two classes of vertex-colored and edge-labeled graphs rendering a walking agent therein to determine his initial and current positions, respectively, in probability one by measuring the color sequence of his travers...
