A new proof is given for the mathematical equivalence among three $k$-sparse controllability problems of a networked system, which plays key roles in Olshevsky,2014, in the establishment of the NP-hardness of the associated minimal…
The optimization problem of the minimum set of leaders for the controllability of undirected graphs are addressed. It is difficult to find not only its optimal solution but also its approximate algorithm. We propose a new concept, namely…
The minimum number of inputs needed to control a network is frequently used to quantify its controllability. Control of linear dynamics through a minimum set of inputs, however, often has prohibitively large energy requirements and there is…
This paper provides a comprehensive analysis of the design of optimal structured and sparse $H_\infty$ controllers for continuous-time linear time-invariant (LTI) systems. Three problems are considered. First, designing the sparsest…
Robust Model Predictive Control (MPC) for nonlinear systems is a problem that poses significant challenges as highlighted by the diversity of approaches proposed in the last decades. Often compromises with respect to computational load,…
The aim of this paper is to characterize an important class of marked digraphs, called structurally observable graphs (SOGs), and to solve two minimum realization problems. To begin with, by exploring structural observability of large-scale…
This paper addresses problems on the structural design of control systems taking explicitly into consideration the possible application to large-scale systems. We provide an efficient and unified framework to solve the following major…
In this paper, we investigate the problem of Model Predictive Control (MPC) of dynamic systems for high-level specifications described by Signal Temporal Logic (STL) formulae. Recent works show that MPC has the great potential in handling…
In this paper, we present a data-driven distributed model predictive control (MPC) scheme to stabilise the origin of dynamically coupled discrete-time linear systems subject to decoupled input constraints. The local optimisation problems…
In this paper, we study the relative controllability of linear difference equations with multiple delays in the state by using a suitable formula for the solutions of such systems in terms of their initial conditions, their control inputs,…
This paper presents a time-optimal Model Predictive Control (MPC) scheme for linear discrete-time systems subject to multiplicative uncertainties represented by interval matrices. To render the uncertainty propagation computationally…
In this paper we address the actuator/sensor allocation problem for linear time invariant (LTI) systems. Given the structure of an autonomous linear dynamical system, the goal is to design the structure of the input matrix (commonly denoted…
We study the problem of detecting change points (CPs) that are characterized by a subset of dimensions in a multi-dimensional sequence. A method for detecting those CPs can be formulated as a two-stage method: one for selecting relevant…
This paper addresses the trajectory-tracking problem for discrete-time linear time-invariant systems with bounded parametric uncertainty, subject to hard constraints on system states, control inputs, and input rates. Unlike existing…
In this paper, we propose to study on sufficient control of complex networks which is to control a sufficiently large portion of the network, where only the quantity of controllable nodes matters. To the best of our knowledge, this is the…
In this paper, we study the structural state and input observability of continuous-time switched linear time-invariant systems and unknown inputs. First, we provide necessary and sufficient conditions for their structural state and input…
Given a linear system $\dot{x} = Ax$, where $A$ is an $n \times n$ matrix with $m$ nonzero entries, we consider the problem of finding the smallest set of state variables to affect with an input so that the resulting system is structurally…
A discrete-time linear dynamical system (LDS) is given by an update matrix $M \in \mathbb{R}^{d\times d}$, and has the trajectories $\langle s, Ms, M^2s, \ldots \rangle$ for $s \in \mathbb{R}^d$. Reachability-type decision problems of…
We consider the singular optimal control problem of minimizing the energy supply of linear dissipative port-Hamiltonian descriptor systems subject to control and terminal state constraints. To this end, after reducing the problem to an ODE…
For a parameter-unknown linear descriptor system, this paper proposes data-driven methods to testify the system's type and controllability and then to stabilize it. First, a data-based condition is developed to identify whether this unknown…
