摘要：Distributed event- and self-triggered controllers are developed for approximate leader-follower consensus with robustness to adversarial Byzantine agents for a class of homogeneous multi-agent systems (MASs). A strategy is developed for each agent to detect Byzantine agent behaviors within their neighbor set and then selectively disregard their transmission. Selectively removing Byzantine agents results in time-varying discontinuous changes to the network topology. Nonsmooth dynamics also resu...

摘要：This article investigates the observability of Markovian jump Boolean networks (MJBNs) via algebraic state space representation approach. A necessary and sufficient criterion in the form of linear programming is derived for the asymptotic observability in distribution of MJBNs, and several conditions are obtained for the finite-time observability based on the properties of nilpotent matrices. Subsequently, in order to minimize the time consumption, a maximum principle is established to address...

摘要：This article addresses sampled-data control of 2-D Kuramoto-Sivashinsky equation over a rectangular domain Omega. We suggest to divide the 2-D rectangular Omega into N subdomains, where sensors provide spatially averaged or point state measurements to be transmitted through communication network to the controller. Note that, differently from 2-D heat equation, here, we manage with sampled-data control under point measurements. We design a regionally stabilizing sampled-data controller applied ...

摘要：In genetic regulatory networks, steady states represent cell types of cell death or unregulated growth, which are of significant interest in modeling networks. In this article, a pinning control intervention is studied for global stabilization of Boolean networks (BNs) under knock-out perturbation. Knock-out perturbation means that logical variables of some nodes of a BN remain 0 s. In order to reduce the impact of perturbation on stability, a pinning control approach is proposed to maintain g...

摘要：We provide two extensions of Halanay's inequality, where the scalar function in the usual Halanay's inequality is replaced by a vector valued function, under a Metzler condition. We provide an easily checked necessary and sufficient condition for asymptotic convergence of the function to the zero vector in the time-invariant case. For the time-varying cases, we provide a sufficient condition for this convergence, which can be easily checked when the systems are periodic. We illustrate our resu...

摘要：Control scheduling refers to the problem of assigning agents or actuators to act upon a dynamical system at specific times so as to minimize a quadratic control cost, such as the objectives of the linear-quadratic-Gaussian (LQG) or linear quadratic regulator problems. When budget or operational constraints are imposed on the schedule, this problem is in general NP-hard and its solution can therefore only be approximated even for moderately sized systems. The quality of this approximation depen...

摘要：A novel Lyapunov methodology for the stability check of nonlinear discrete-time switching systems, equipped with switches digraphs and nonuniform dwell-time ranges, is here presented. The novelty of the methodology consists in the following coexisting features: i) the global uniform (with respect to compact sets of initial conditions and switching signals) asymptotic stability is addressed; ii) the information on allowed switches and (nonuniform) dwell-time ranges is fully exploited; iii) no a...

摘要：We study a general class of dynamic multi- agent decision problems with asymmetric information and nonstrategic agents, which include dynamic teams as a special case. When agents are nonstrategic, an agent's strategy is known to the other agents. Nevertheless, the agents' strategy choices and beliefs are interdependent over times, a phenomenon known as signaling. We introduce the notion of sufficient information that effectively compresses the agents' information in a mutually consistent manne...

摘要：This article considers the optimal control problem for path-constrained switched systems with guaranteed feasibility. First, a method is proposed to reduce continuous path constraints of the switched systems into discrete abstract constraints in terms of the switch time vector and the input. Second, differentiability of the optimal value function, i.e., the cost function optimized over the input, is analyzed by using perturbation analysis theory. For a given switch time vector, the derivative ...

摘要：This article is concerned with robust stability analysis of feedback interconnections of nonlinear systems using integral quadratic constraints (IQCs). Its main purpose involves reconciling hard (a.k.a. unconditional) IQC and soft (a.k.a. conditional) IQC-based analysis. In particular, it is shown that the hard IQC stability result can be recovered from the soft IQC theory. The hard IQC approach is closely related to the dissipativity theory, whereas the soft IQC approach makes use of homotopi...
