摘要：This article deals with the input-output finite-time stability (IO-FTS) of linear discrete-time systems. In current control science, discrete-time systems play a very important role in many engineering contexts. Moreover, many discrete-time control problems are defined over a finite-interval of time; therefore, the development and application of finite-time control methodologies is of particular relevance. The first contribution of this article is a pair of necessary and sufficient conditions ...

摘要：This article presents a novel Jacobi-style iteration algorithm for solving the problem of distributed submodular maximization, in which multiple agents determine their strategies from the private sets so that a global, nonseparable submodular objective function is jointly maximized. Building on the multilinear extension of the submodular function, we expect to achieve the solution from a probabilistic, rather than deterministic, perspective, and thus, transfer the considered problem from the d...

摘要：In this article, we propose a tractable nonlinear fault estimation filter along with explicit performance bounds for a class of linear dynamical systems in the presence of both additive and nonlinear multiplicative faults. We consider the case, where both faults may occur simultaneously and through an identical dynamical relationship, a setting that is relevant to several application domains, including automotive driving, aviation, and chemical plants. The proposed filter architecture combines...

摘要：This article is devoted to reveal some essential features of stochastic control systems with sampled data (SCSwSD). First, it is shown by a proposition that the moment asymptotic stability of the underlying system is equivalent to that of any regular accurate numerical scheme under simple conditions, which is convenient to be structured specially for SCSwSD. This kind of principle provides a way for inferring moment asymptotic stability of SCSwSD by numerical simulations logically. As the firs...

摘要：This article focuses on the stability analysis of a formation shape displayed by a team of mobile robots that uses a heterogeneous sensing mechanism. For the setups consisting of three robots, we show that the use of heterogeneous gradient-based control laws can give rise to undesired invariant sets where a distorted formation shape is possibly moving at a constant velocity. We guarantee local asymptotic stability for the correct and desired formation shape. For the setup with one distance and...

摘要：With the rapid development of Artificial Intelligence (AI) and robotics, deploying a large swarm of networked robots has foreseeable applications in the near future. Existing research in swarm robotics has mainly followed a bottom-up philosophy with predefined local coordination and control rules. However, it is arduous to verify the global requirements and analyze their performance. This motivates us to pursue a top-down approach, and develop a provable control strategy for transporting a rob...

摘要：Although transmission of a data packet containing sensory information in a networked control system improves the quality of regulation, it has indeed a price from the communication perspective. It is, therefore, rational that such a data packet be transmitted only if it is valuable in the sense of a cost-benefit analysis. Yet, the fact is that little is known so far about this valuation of information and its connection with traditional event-triggered communication. In the present article, we...

摘要：In this article, a data-driven distributed leader-follower iterative learning consensus tracking control approach is proposed for unknown repetitive nonlinear nonaffine discrete-time multi-agent systems. The leader's command is only communicated to a subset of the following agents and each following agent exchanges information only with its neighbors under a directed graph. A local iterative learning consensus control protocol is designed using only local measurements communicated among neighb...

摘要：Originating in the artificial intelligence literature, optimistic planning (OP) is an algorithm that generates near-optimal control inputs for generic nonlinear discrete-time systems whose input set is finite. This technique is, therefore, relevant for the near-optimal control of nonlinear switched systems for which the switching signal is the control, and no continuous input is present. However, OP exhibits several limitations, which prevent its desired application in a standard control engin...

摘要：This article addresses the problem of sliding-mode control (SMC) of linear uncertain systems with impulse effects. The difficulty in solving such problem lies in that the continuity property of the well-used linear sliding function is lost under the intermittent impulsive action. In order to overcome this difficulty, a piecewise linear sliding function considering the dynamics properties of impulses is introduced, which turns out to be continuous along the trajectories of the impulsive system....
