Dynamic mode decomposition has emerged as a leading technique to identify spatiotemporal coherent structures from high-dimensional data, benefiting from a strong connection to nonlinear dynamical systems via the Koopman operator. In this…
This paper presents a novel partial differential equation (PDE)-based framework for controlling an ensemble of robots, which have limited sensing and actuation capabilities and exhibit stochastic behaviors, to perform mapping and coverage…
This paper proposes a double-layered framework (or form of network) to integrate two mechanisms, termed consensus and conservation, achieving distributed solution of a linear equation. The multi-agent framework considered in the paper is…
The combination of Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Internet-of-Things (IoT), which is denoted as AI-powered Internet-of-Things (AIoT), is capable of processing huge amount of data generated from a large number of devices and handling…
In this paper, a short-term load forecasting approach based network reconfiguration is proposed in a parallel manner. Specifically, a support vector regression (SVR) based short-term load forecasting approach is designed to provide an…
This paper aims to propose a two-step approach for day-ahead hourly scheduling in a distribution system operation, which contains two operation costs, the operation cost at substation level and feeder level. In the first step, the objective…
In this article, we consider the problem of synthesizing switching controllers for temporal properties through the composition of simple primitive reach-while-stay (RWS) properties. Reach-while-stay properties specify that the system states…
Motivated by the Internet-of-things and sensor networks for cyberphysical systems, the problem of dynamic sensor activation for the tracking of a time-varying process is examined. The tradeoff is between energy efficiency, which decreases…
The objective of this paper is to initiate a qualitative analysis of dynamic flow in traffic networks by using the competitive equilibrium model of multiple market systems. A network is modeled as a dynamic graph where routes (edges) are…
In the paper, the control problem with limitations on the magnitude and rate of the control action in aircraft control systems, is studied. Existence of hidden oscillations in the case of actuator position and rate limitations is…
Robustness of hybrid control systems to measurement noise, actuator disturbances, and more generally perturbations, is analyzed. The relationship between the robustness of a hybrid control system and of its implementations is emphasized.…
In adaptive control, a controller is precisely designed for a certain model of the system, but that model's parameters are updated online by another mechanism called the adaptive update. This allows the controller to aim for the benefits of…
In this document, we provide supplementary material to a paper that will be published in ERTS2. It includes a more detailed description of the described requirement transformations, outlined in the paper. For this purpose, we also provide a…
Methods based on polynomial chaos expansion allow to approximate the behavior of systems with uncertain parameters by deterministic dynamics. These methods are used in a wide range of applications, spanning from simulation of uncertain…
Cyber-Physical Systems are the result of integrating information and communication technologies into physical systems. One particular case are Cyber-Physical Power Systems (CPPS), which use communication technologies to perform real-time…
Impulsive dynamical systems is a well-established area of dynamical systems theory, and it is used in this work to analyze several basic properties of reset control systems: existence and uniqueness of solutions, and continuous dependence…
In this paper, we investigate probabilistic stability of Kalman filtering over fading channels modeled by $\ast$-mixing random processes, where channel fading is allowed to generate non-stationary packet dropouts with temporal and/or…
In this paper, we examine the shifted passivity property of port-Hamiltonian systems. Shifted passivity accounts for the fact that in many applications the desired steady-state values of the input and output variables are nonzero, and thus…

This article examines the problem of visual area coverage by a network of Mobile Aerial Agents (MAAs). Each MAA is assumed to be equipped with a downwards facing camera with a conical field of view which covers all points within a circle on…
