This paper considers the multi-dimensional consensus in networked systems, where some of the agents might be misbehaving (or faulty). Despite the influence of these misbehaviors, the benign agents aim to reach an agreement while avoiding…
Average consensus (AC) strategies play a key role in every system that employs cooperation by means of distributed computations. To promote consensus, an $N$-agent network can repeatedly combine certain node estimates until their mean value…
