This paper gives a fresh look at network synchronization. Here we no longer analyze it from the view of mathematics, such as graph theory, while we probe into one from control theory. First, we analyze the synchronization region using the…

In this paper, we propose a novel approach that employs kinetic equations to describe the collective dynamics emerging from graph-mediated pairwise interactions in multi-agent systems. We formally show that for large graphs and specific…

It is typical to assume that there is no conflict of interest among leaders. Under such assumption, it is known that, for a multi-agent system with two leaders, if the followers' interaction subgraph is undirected and connected, then…

This paper studies the problem of increasing the connectivity of an ad-hoc peer-to-peer network subject to cyber-attacks targeting the agents in the network. The adopted strategy involves the design of local interaction rules for the agents…

Multi-agent learning has gained increasing attention to tackle distributed machine learning scenarios under constrictions of data exchanging. However, existing multi-agent learning models usually consider data fusion under fixed and…

In this paper, scalable controller design to achieve output synchronization for a heterogeneous discrete-time nonlinear multi-agent system is considered. The agents are assumed to exhibit potentially nonlinear dynamics but share linear…

In this paper, we investigate distributed multi-agent tracking of a convex set specified by multiple moving leaders with unmeasurable velocities. Various jointly-connected interaction topologies of the follower agents with uncertainties are…

Consensusability is an important property for many multi-agent systems (MASs) as it implies the existence of networked controllers driving the states of MAS subsystems to the same value. Consensusability is of interest even when the MAS…

The paper presents a novel approach for the analysis and control of a multi-agent system with non-identical agents and a path-graph topology. With the help of irrational wave transfer functions, the approach describes the interaction among…

This paper addresses the problem of identifying the graph structure of a dynamical network using measured input/output data. This problem is known as topology identification and has received considerable attention in recent literature. Most…

The fast development of Artificial Intelligence (AI) agents provides a promising way for the realization of intelligent and customized wireless networks. In this paper, we propose a Wireless Multi-Agent System (WMAS), which can provide…

In this paper, structural controllability of a leader-follower multi-agent system with multiple leaders is studied from a graph-theoretic point of view. The problem of preservation of structural controllability under simultaneous failures…

This work examines the problem of topology inference over discrete-time nonlinear stochastic networked dynamical systems. The goal is to recover the underlying digraph linking the network agents, from observations of their state-evolution.…

The existing results on controllability of multi-agents networks are mostly based on homogeneous nodes. This paper focuses on controllability of heterogeneous multi-agent networks, where the agents are modeled as two types. One type is that…

Coordinating multiple autonomous agents to reach a target region while avoiding collisions and maintaining communication connectivity is a core problem in multi-agent systems. In practice, agents have a limited communication range. Thus,…

We extend the concept of graph isomorphisms to multilayer networks with any number of "aspects" (i.e., types of layering). In developing this generalization, we identify multiple types of isomorphisms. For example, in multilayer networks…

A crucial challenge in decentralized systems is state estimation in the presence of unknown inputs, particularly within heterogeneous sensor networks with dynamic topologies. While numerous consensus algorithms have been introduced, they…

Controllability of multi-agent systems is determined by the interconnection topologies. In practice, losing agents can change the topologies of multi-agent systems, which may affect the controllability. This paper studies non-fragility of…

The paper presents a result which relates connectedness of the interaction graphs in a multi-agent systems with the capability for global convergence to a common equilibrium of the system. In particular we extend a previously known result…

Strategic diversity is often essential in games: in multi-player games, for example, evaluating a player against a diverse set of strategies will yield a more accurate estimate of its performance. Furthermore, in games with…
