摘要：This article considers the finite-time adaptive control problem of nonlinear systems with quantized input signal. Compared with existing results, the quantized parameters are unknown and the bound of the disturbance is not required. By utilizing the command filter backstepping method, an adaptive switching-type controller is designed and a novel switching mechanism is also proposed. By regulating the controller parameters online, practical finite-time stability can be guaranteed for the closed...

摘要：Sliding mode control is a widely used approach in different application domains, due to its versatility and ease of implementation. As is well known, one of its most serious drawbacks is the presence of chattering. To alleviate this problem, higher order sliding mode (HOSM) approaches have been proposed, which also allow dealing with high relative degree plants. To gain more flexibility in the controller design and to boost performance, switched and variable-gain approaches are being developed...

摘要：This article is concerned with moving-horizon state estimation problems for a class of discrete-time linear dynamic networks. The signals are transmitted via noisy network channels and distortions can be caused by channel noises. As such, the binary encoding schemes, which take advantages of the robustness of the binary data, are exploited during the signal transmission. More specifically, under such schemes, the original signals are encoded into a bit string, transmitted via memoryless binary...

摘要：We consider the distributed weight balancing problem in networks of nodes that are interconnected via directed edges, each of which admits a positive integer weight. A digraph with positive integer weights on its edges is weight balanced if, for each node, the sum of the weights of the incoming edges equals the sum of the weights of the outgoing edges. In this article, we develop a distributed iterative algorithm, which solves the integer weight balancing problem in the presence of arbitrary (...

摘要：This article proposes a novel information-theoretic joint probabilistic data association filter for tracking unknown number of targets. The proposed information-theoretic joint probabilistic data association algorithm is obtained by the minimization of a weighted reverse Kullback-Leibler divergence to approximate the posterior Gaussian mixture probability density function. Theoretical analysis of mean performance and error covariance performance with ideal detection probability is presented to...

摘要：Goal-driven selective attention (GDSA) refers to the brain's function of prioritizing the activity of a task-relevant subset of its overall network to efficiently process relevant information while inhibiting the effects of distractions. Despite decades of research in neuroscience, a comprehensive understanding of GDSA is still lacking. We propose a novel framework using concepts and tools from control theory as well as insights and structures from neuroscience. Central to this framework is an...

摘要：This article proposes a design approach, based on the integral sliding mode control paradigm, devoted to give robustness to multiagent systems executing arbitrary distributed optimization and consensus protocols which do not take this feature into account. Robustness is understood as the capability of rejecting the effect of exogenous disturbances, parameter uncertainties, and uncertain couplings between the agents dynamics, by achieving the same emerging behavior as that corresponding to a re...

摘要：We propose a new robust recursive fixed-interval smoother for nonlinear systems under non-Gaussian process and measurement noises, i.e., the nominal Gaussian noise is polluted by large noise from unknown distributions. Taking advantage of correntropy in handling non-Gaussian noise, a robust Rauch-Tung-Striebel smoother is derived according to the maximum-correntropy-criterion-based cost functions with nonlinear functions linearized by their first-order Taylor series expansions, where two weigh...

摘要：In this article, we will study a class of forward and backward stochastic difference equations (discrete-time FBSDEs) with time delay. By establishing a nonhomogeneous relationship between the forward and backward stochastic processes, we give the explicit solution of the discrete-time FBSDEs with time delay in terms of a class of Riccati-like equations. The explicit solution is of great significance in solving the stochastic control problem. To show this point, we study a stochastic leader-fo...

摘要：In this article, we present a novel distributed adaptive output feedback control for the cooperative output regulation problem of linear multiagent systems. The agent plant is general in the sense that those interesting practical issues such as unknown dynamics, directed network graph, and agents with nonidentical relative degrees are taken into account simultaneously. The obtained controller consists of the reduced-order observer, the internal model, as well as the adaptive control law, all o...
