摘要：This article establishes a robustness type result, namely, delay tolerance for stable stochastic systems under suitable conditions. We study the delay tolerance for stable stochastic systems and delayed feedback controls of such systems, where the delay can be statedependent or induced by the sampling-data. First, we consider systems with global Lipschitz continuous coefficients and show that when the original stochastic system without delay is pth moment exponentially stable, the system with ...

摘要：In this article, the performance limitations problem are investigated for a class of signal-input, signal-output networked control systems with repeated zeros and poles. The additive white noise is adopted in the communication channel. The tracking performance limitations are investigated based on a two-degree of freedom (2DOF) controller. The results demonstrate that the multiplicity of nonminimum phase (NMP) zeros and unstable poles of the plant can affect the tracking performance limitation...

摘要：This article deals with computational complexity of various problems related to the zero controllability of a discrete-time linear time-invariant system, assuming that purely structural conditions at the level of the connections between the system states (i.e., state-connections) and the connections from the inputs to the states (i.e., input-connections) are known. Given a generically zero controllable system, we consider the following problems: i) find a minimal set of input-connections whose...

摘要：We study stochastic static teams with countably infinite number of decision makers (DMs), with the goal of obtaining (globally) optimal policies under a decentralized information structure. We present sufficient conditions to connect the concepts of team optimality and person-byperson optimality for static teams with countably infinite number of DMs. We show that under uniform integrability and uniform convergence conditions, an optimal policy for static teams with countably infinite number of...

摘要：Transmission zeros can be counted by using the Smith-McMillan form, pole/zero modules, or the dimension of the largest output-nulling invariant subspace. This article provides an alternative approach by showing that the number of transmission zeros of a multiple-input-multiple-output (MIMO) transfer function is given in terms of the defect of a block Toeplitz matrix and the defect of an augmented matrix consisting of an observability matrix and the block Toeplitz matrix. It is also shown that ...

摘要：We consider a dynamic traffic routing game over an urban road network involving a large number of drivers in which each driver selecting a particular route is subject to a penalty that is affine in the logarithm of the number of drivers selecting the same route. We show that the mean-field approximation of such a game leads to the so-called linearly solvable Markov decision process, implying that its mean-field equilibrium (MFE) can be found simply by solving a finite-dimensional linear system...

摘要：In this article, we consider an online distributed composite optimization problem over a timevarying multiagent network that consists of multiple interacting nodes, where the objective function of each node consists of two parts: a loss function that changes over time and a regularization function. This problem naturally arises in many real-world applications ranging from wireless sensor networks to signal processing. We propose a class of online distributed optimization algorithms that are ba...

摘要：To understand the emergence and sustainment of cooperative behavior in interacting collectives, we perform global convergence analysis for replicator dynamics of a large, well-mixed population of individuals playing a repeated snowdrift game with four typical strategies, which are always cooperate (ALLC), tit-for-tat (TFT), suspicious tit-for-tat (STFT), and always defect (ALLD). The dynamical model is a 3-D ordinary differential equation (ODE) system that is parameterized by the payoffs of th...

摘要：A sequence of social sensors estimates an unknown parameter (modeled as a state of nature) by performing Bayesian social learning, and myopically optimizes individual reward functions. The decisions of the social sensors contain quantized information about the underlying state. How should a fusion center dynamically incentivize the social sensors for acquiring information about the underlying state? This article presents five results. First, sufficient conditions on the model parameters are pr...

摘要：In this article, we propose an observer for a class of Lipschitz nonlinear systems affected by time-varying and known measurement delays, which is an improvement of the one presented by Cacace et al., 2014. Under the assumption that the delay function is piecewise continuous and differentiable, we prove that exponential convergence to zero of the observation error can be achieved with any desired decay rate, by suitably tuning a gain vector. The delay bound achieved with the observer proposed ...
