In traditional adaptive control, the certainty equivalence principle suggests a two-step design scheme. A controller is first designed for the ideal situation assuming the uncertain parameter was known and it renders a Lyapunov function.…

This paper studies the consensus problem for multiagent systems with transmission constraints. A novel model of multiagent systems is proposed where the information transmissions between agents are disturbed by irregular distortions or…
This paper presents a consensus algorithm for a multi-agent system where each agent has access to its imperfect own state and neighboring state measurements. The measurements are subject to deterministic disturbances and the proposed…
In this technical note, we first clarify a technical issue in the convergence proof of a free-will arbitrary time (FwAT) consensus law proposed recently in Pal et al. IEEE Trans. Cybern. (2020)[1], making the results questionable. We then…
This paper considers the distributed consensus problem of linear multi-agent systems subject to different matching uncertainties for both the cases without and with a leader of bounded unknown control input. Due to the existence of…
This paper studies the distributed mode consensus problem in a multi-agent system, in which the agents each possess a certain attribute and they aim to agree upon the mode (the most frequent attribute owned by the agents) via distributed…
In this work, we study the consensus problem in which legitimate agents send their values over an undirected communication network in the presence of an unknown subset of malicious or faulty agents. In contrast to former works, we…

In this paper, we consider the consensus problem of dynamical multiple agents that communicate via a directed moving neighborhood random network. Each agent performs random walk on a weighted directed network. Agents interact with each…
This paper addresses the bipartite consensus-control problem in open multi-agent systems containing both cooperative and antagonistic interactions. In these systems, new agents can join and new interactions can be formed over time.…
Models of consensus are used to manage multiple agent systems in order to choose between different recommendations provided by the system. It is assumed that there is a central agent that solicits recommendations or plans from other agents.…
We study a simple but compelling model of $n$ interacting agents via time-dependent, unidirectional communication. The model finds wide application in a variety of fields including synchronization, swarming and distributed decision making.…
