This paper provides a framework to evaluate the performance of single and double integrator networks over arbitrary directed graphs. Adopting vehicular network terminology, we consider quadratic performance metrics defined by the L2-norm of…
This paper revisits the robustness analysis and distributed ${ H}_\infty$ controller design for the platooning of connected vehicles. Recently, the relevant result subjected to the undirected topology has been studied, in the light of the…
We consider a graph theoretic approach to the performance and robustness of a platoon of vehicles, where each vehicle communicates with its $k$-nearest neighbors. In particular, we quantify the platoon's stability margin, robustness to…
In this technical note, we study the controllability of diffusively coupled networks from a graph theoretic perspective. We consider leader-follower networks, where the external control inputs are injected to only some of the agents, namely…
Graph theory is a promising approach in handling the problem of estimating the connectivity probability of vehicular ad-hoc networks (VANETs). With a communication network represented as graph, graph connectivity indicators become valid for…
In this paper we investigate a relaxed concept of controllability, known in the literature as herdability, namely the capability of a system to be driven towards the(interior of the) positive orthant. Specifically, we investigate…
In an intelligent transportation system, the effects and relations of traffic flow at different points in a network are valuable features which can be exploited for control system design and traffic forecasting. In this paper, we define the…
We study the stability and robustness of large-scale vehicular formations, in which each vehicle is modeled as a double-integrator. Two types of information graphs are considered: directed trees and undirected graphs. We prove stability of…
This paper considers the distributed H-infinity leader-following tracking problem for a class of discrete time multi-agent systems with a high-dimensional dynamic leader. It is assumed that output information about the leader is only…
In this paper, we study the leaderless consensus problem for multiple Lagrangian systems in the presence of parametric uncertainties and external disturbances under directed graphs. For achieving asymptotic behavior, a robust continuous…
Dynamic graphs have emerged as an appropriate model to capture the changing nature of many modern networks, such as peer-to-peer overlays and mobile ad hoc networks. Most of the recent research on dynamic networks has only addressed the…
In this paper, we study the $H_\infty$-norm of linear systems over graphs, which is used to model distribution networks. In particular, we aim to minimize the $H_\infty$-norm subject to allocation of the weights on the edges. The…
Networks and graphs provide a simple but effective model to a vast set of systems which building blocks interact throughout pairwise interactions. Unfortunately, such models fail to describe all those systems which building blocks interact…
Directed graphs provide more subtle and precise modelling tools for optimization in road networks than simple graphs. In particular, they are more suitable in the context of alternative fuel vehicles and new automotive technologies, like…
We present a graph-theoretic approach to analyzing the robustness of leader-follower consensus dynamics to disturbances and time delays. Robustness to disturbances is captured via the system $\mathcal{H}_2$ and $\mathcal{H}_{\infty}$ norms…
Graph Neural Networks (GNNs) have become the de-facto standard tool for modeling relational data. However, while many real-world graphs are directed, the majority of today's GNN models discard this information altogether by simply making…
We describe a data structure that maintains the number of triangles in a dynamic undirected graph, subject to insertions and deletions of edges and of degree-zero vertices. More generally it can be used to maintain the number of copies of…
In this paper, we propose a discontinuous distributed model-independent algorithm for a directed network of Euler-Lagrange agents to track the trajectory of a leader with non-constant velocity. We initially study a fixed network and show…
We study distributed computation in synchronous dynamic networks where an omniscient adversary controls the unidirectional communication links. Its behavior is modeled as a sequence of directed graphs representing the active (i.e. timely)…
This paper studies cooperative tracking problem of heterogeneous Euler-Lagrange systems with an uncertain leader. Different from most existing works, system dynamic knowledge of the leader node is unaccessible to any follower node in our…
