摘要：In this article, we present an event-triggered boundary control scheme with a, likewise, event-triggered batch least-squares parameter identification for a $2\times 2$ hyperbolic PDE-ODE system, where two coefficients of the in-domain couplings between two transport PDEs, and the system parameter of a scalar ODE, are unknown. The triggering condition is designed based on evaluating both the actuation deviation caused by the difference between the plant states and their sampled values, and the ...

摘要：Systems governed by Riccati differential equations arise in several areas of control system theory. In combination with a linear fractional output, observability of such systems is relevant in the context of robotics and computer vision, for example, when studying the reconstruction of point locations from their perspective projections. The so-called perspective observability criteria exist to verify this observability property algebraically, but they provide only a binary answer. The present ...

摘要：In this article, the controllability is investigated for nonlinear impulsive and switching systems with input delay. Using the fixed point method, two controllability conditions are developed for such systems under different nonlinear constraints. First, the Lipschitz nonlinear condition is considered. A control mapping is constructed based on the input matrix condition, and a nonlinear operator is introduced to convert the controllability into the existence of a fixed point. A sufficient cont...

摘要：Detectability is a fundamental property in partially observed dynamical systems. It describes whether one can use observed output sequences to determine the current and subsequent states. Delayed detectability generalizes detectability in the sense that when doing state estimation at a time instant, some outputs after the instant are also considered, making the estimation more accurate. In this article, we use a novel concurrent-composition method to give polynomial-time algorithms for verifyi...

摘要：The problem of reducing a hidden Markov model (HMM) to one of smaller dimension that exactly reproduces the same marginals is tackled by using a system-theoretic approach. Realization theory tools are extended to HMMs by leveraging suitable algebraic representations of probability spaces. We propose two algorithms that return coarse-grained equivalent HMMs obtained by stochastic projection operators: the first returns models that exactly reproduce the single-time distribution of a given output...

摘要：This article investigates the group consensus of heterogeneous multiagent systems (MASs) with time-varying unknown nonidentical direction (TVUND) faults under stochastic false data injection (FDI) attacks. A fault-tolerant mechanism based on the Nussbaum function method that does not require the upper and lower bounds of the fault scaling factors nor fault directions is proposed. To bypass the challenges resulting from the summation of multiple Nussbaum functions, a group of new Nussbaum funct...

摘要：Compared with linear time invariant systems, linear periodic system can describe the periodic processes arising from nature and engineering more precisely. However, the time-varying system parameters increase the difficulty of the research on periodic system, such as stabilization and observation. This article aims to consider the observation problem of periodic systems by bridging two fundamental filtering algorithms for periodic systems with a sensor network: consensus-on-measurement-based d...

摘要：Due to the difficulty in handling the issue of nondifferentiable virtual control signals, there is still no available result considering output triggering and sensor faults simultaneously for nonlinear systems subject to mismatched parameteric uncertainties via backstepping design, even though the underlying problem is practically important and frequently encountered. In this article, to deal with this challenging problem, several crucial design ideas are proposed in developing the control sch...

摘要：We consider controlling a graph-based Markov decision process (GMDP) with a control capacity constraint given only uncertain measurements of the underlying state. We also consider two special structural properties of GMDPs, called anonymous influence and symmetry. Large-scale spatial processes such as forest wildfires, disease epidemics, opinion dynamics, and robot swarms are well-modeled by GMDPs with these properties. We adopt a certainty-equivalence approach and derive efficient and scalabl...

摘要：This work considers an online distributed optimization problem, with a group of agents whose local objective functions vary with time. Moreover, the value of the objective function is revealed to the corresponding agent after the decision is executed per time-step. Thus, each agent can only update the decision variable based on the revealed value and information collected from the neighbors, without the knowledge on the explicit expression of the objective function. To solve this problem, an o...
