摘要：This article studies the performance of a feedback control loop closed via an error-free digital communication channel with transmission delay. The system comprises a discrete-time noisy linear time-invariant plant, whose single measurement output is mapped into its single control input by a causal, but otherwise arbitrary, coding and control scheme. We consider a single-input multiple-output channel between the encoder-controller and the decoder-controller, which is lossless and imposes rando...

摘要：We study a robust control problem for dynamical flow networks. In the considered framework, traffic flows along the links of a transportation network-modeled as a capacited multigraph-and queues up at the nodes, whereby control policies determine which incoming queues are to be allocated service simultaneously, within some predetermined scheduling constraints. We first prove fundamental performance limitations on the system performance by showing that for a dynamical flow network to be stabili...

摘要：Continuous-time linear systems with periodic coefficients of period. are considered in this article. We study the question of the controllability interval length of periodic systems. It is known that a controllable omega-periodic system is controllable over intervals of the length k omega, where k is the degree of the minimal polynomial of the monodromy matrix. It is proved that this boundary k omega is exact and cannot be decreased. It is proved that controllability of an omega-periodic syste...

摘要：In cyber-physical systems (CPS), the networked structure not only enhances the accessibility of data, but also introduces the risk of cyber attacks. The stealthy attacks that are undetected by the monitoring system, are the most dangerous type of cyber attacks. In this article, we introduce a new attack strategy to call attention to the problem of stealthy cyber attacks on CPS. The proposed attack scenario does not require access to all control input signals and sensor output signals, so it ne...

摘要：In this article, we investigate the enforcement of opacity via supervisory control in the context of discrete-event systems. A system is said to be opaque if the intruder, which is modeled as a passive observer, can never infer confidently that the system is at a secret state. The design objective is to synthesize a supervisor such that the closed-loop system is opaque even when the control policy is publicly known. In this article, we propose a new approach for enforcing opacity using nondete...

摘要：A probabilistic Boolean network (PBN) is a discrete-time system composed of a collection of Boolean networks between which the PBN switches in a stochastic manner. This article focuses on the study of quotients of PBNs. Given a PBN and an equivalence relation on its state set, we consider a probabilistic transition system that is generated by the PBN; the resulting quotient transition system then automatically captures the quotient behavior of this PBN. We therefore describe a method for obtai...

摘要：The Shapiro scheme, together with the closely related Frisch-Kalman scheme, has been an important approach to system identification and statistical analysis. A longstanding result on this scheme, known as the Shapiro theorem, is both informative and significant. This article imparts a geometric understanding to the Shapiro theorem and generalizes it to the asymmetric setting using the notion of cone-invariance. In particular, we establish the equivalence between two important properties of a r...

摘要：In this article, we consider a collective decision-making process in a network of agents described by a nonlinear interconnected dynamical model with sigmoidal nonlinearities and signed interaction graph. The decisions are encoded in the equilibria of the system. The aim is to investigate this multiagent system when the signed graph representing the community is not structurally balanced and in particular as we vary its frustration, i.e., its distance to structural balance. The model exhibits ...

摘要：This article presents a new parameter estimation algorithm for the adaptive control of a class of time-varying plants. The main feature of this algorithm is a matrix of time-varying learning rates, which enables parameter estimation error trajectories to tend exponentially fast toward a compact set whenever excitation conditions are satisfied. This algorithm is employed in a large class of problems where unknown parameters are present and are time-varying. It is shown that this algorithm guara...

摘要：In this article, we consider distributed stochastic optimization over randomly switching networks, where agents collaboratively minimize the average of all agents' local expectation-valued convex cost functions. Due to the stochasticity in gradient observations, distributedness of local functions, and randomness of communication topologies, distributed algorithms with an exact convergence guarantee under fixed step-sizes have not been achieved yet. This work incorporates variance reduction sch...
