摘要：In this article, the problem of online distributed optimization with a set constraint is solved by employing a network of agents. Each agent only has access to a local objective function and set constraint, and can only communicate with its neighbors via a digraph, which is not necessarily balanced. Moreover, agents do not have prior knowledge of their future objective functions. Different from existing works on online distributed optimization, we consider the scenario, where objective functio...

摘要：This article is concerned with the state estimation of linear dynamic systems when some sensors are corrupted by attackers. This problem is known as resilient state estimation (RSE), and aims to achieve, under some conditions, the estimation of the true state despite the malicious attacks on sensors. The state-of-art RSE methods provides a bound on estimation errors when external disturbance exists. However, it is shown in this article that the effect of the disturbance on estimation error may...

摘要：In this article, we study the problem of information sharing among rational self-interested agents as a dynamic game of asymmetric information. We assume that the agents imperfectly observe a Markov chain, and they are called to decide whether they will share their noisy observations or not at each time instant. We utilize the notion of conditional mutual information to evaluate the information being shared among the agents. The challenges that arise due to the interdependence of agents' infor...

摘要：Through the combination of contraction mapping and pseudospectral method, we propose a successive approximation technique to approximate the solution of a class of regulator equations with periodic exosystems and hyperbolic zero dynamics. In this scheme, the initial points of flows on the zero-error constrained manifolds are approximated successively as the fixed point of a contractive integral mapping. Accordingly, flows are obtained by utilizing the scaled Fourier-Gauss-Radau collocation met...

摘要：This article considers the problem of output feedback stabilization for a class of nonlinear planar systems with unknown structures and measurements, which prevent the construction of conventional state observers. By taking advantage of the stability-increasing capability of a lead compensator, we propose a dynamic output feedback controller to globally stabilize the uncertain planar systems. For the special case of linear planar systems with unknown coefficients, a finite-time output feedback...

摘要：We consider the framework of transfer-entropy-regularized Markov decision process (TERMDP) in which the weighted sum of the classical state-dependent cost and the transfer entropy from the state random process to the control input process is minimized. Although TERMDPs are generally formulated as nonconvex optimization problems, an analytical necessary optimality condition can be expressed as a finite set of nonlinear equations, based on which an iterative forward-backward computational proced...

摘要：Multiagent policy evaluation and seeking are long-standing challenges in developing theories for multiagent reinforcement learning (MARL), due to multidimensional learning goals, nonstationary environment, and scalability issues in the joint policy space. This article introduces two metrics grounded on a game-theoretic solution concept called sink equilibrium, for the evaluation, ranking, and computation of policies in multiagent learning. We adopt strict best response dynamics (SBRDs) to mode...

摘要：This article considers the design and analysis of a distributed sensor fault accommodation scheme for a class of nonlinear systems, modeled as interconnected subsystems. Each subsystem is subject to possible local sensor faults or may be impacted by a sensor fault in a neighboring subsystem due to the exchange of information between neighboring controllers. The proposed adaptive approximation-based distributed fault accommodation scheme is triggered in the event that a sensor fault is detected...

摘要：The transient stabilization and voltage regulation problem for a synchronous generator connected to an infinite bus is addressed, in this article, in the presence of all uncertain physical parameters. First, new interpretations for the desensitized four loops regulator, here referred to as robust coordinated power system stabilizer and automatic voltage regulator (PSS-AVR) are derived in terms of minimum phase properties with respect to a suitably chosen output for the linearized error system....

摘要：This article studies angle-based sensor network localization (ASNL) in a plane, which is to determine locations of all sensors in a sensor network, given locations of partial sensors (called anchors) and angle measurements obtained in the local coordinate frame of each sensor. First, it is shown that a framework with a nondegenerate bilateration ordering must be angle fixable, implying that it can be uniquely determined by angles between edges up to translations, rotations, reflections, and un...
