In distributed model predictive control (DMPC), where a centralized optimization problem is solved in distributed fashion using dual decomposition, it is important to keep the number of iterations in the solution algorithm, i.e. the amount…

Model mismatch and process noise are two frequently occurring phenomena that can drastically affect the performance of model predictive control (MPC) in practical applications. We propose a principled way to tune the cost function and the…

Although recent works try to improve collective communication in grid systems by separating intra and inter-cluster communication, the optimisation of communications focus only on inter-cluster communications. We believe, instead, that the…

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…

Engineered cyberphysical systems are growing increasingly large and complex. These systems require scalable controllers that robustly satisfy state and input constraints in the presence of additive noise -- such controllers should also be…

The increasing presence of large-scale distributed systems highlights the need for scalable control strategies where only local communication is required. Moreover, in safety-critical systems it is imperative that such control strategies…

Decentralized optimization is widely used in large scale and privacy preserving machine learning and various distributed control and sensing systems. It is assumed that every agent in the network possesses a local objective function, and…

Federated Learning is a powerful machine learning paradigm to cooperatively train a global model with highly distributed data. A major bottleneck on the performance of distributed Stochastic Gradient Descent (SGD) algorithm for large-scale…

We develop model free PAC performance guarantees for multiple concurrent MDPs, extending recent works where a single learner interacts with multiple non-interacting agents in a noise free environment. Our framework allows noisy and resource…

In standard number-in-hand multi-party communication complexity, performance is measured as the total number of bits transmitted globally in the network. In this paper, we study a variation called local communication complexity in which…

This paper studies consensus of discrete-time multi-agent systems under time-varying directed communication, state and input constraints using a distributed multi-step model predictive control (MPC) framework. Consensus is recast as…

Faster, cheaper, and more power efficient optimization solvers than those currently offered by general-purpose solutions are required for extending the use of model predictive control (MPC) to resource-constrained embedded platforms. We…

We develop a new approach to tackle communication constraints in a distributed learning problem with a central server. We propose and analyze a new algorithm that performs bidirectional compression and achieves the same convergence rate as…

Model Predictive Control (MPC) is a successful control methodology, which is applied to increasingly complex systems. However, real-time feasibility of MPC can be challenging for complex systems, certainly when an (extremely) large number…

Inexact methods for model predictive control (MPC), such as real-time iterative schemes or time-distributed optimization, alleviate the computational burden of exact MPC by providing suboptimal solutions. While the asymptotic stability of…

Federated learning enables the clients to collaboratively train a global model, which is aggregated from local models. Due to the heterogeneous data distributions over clients and data privacy in federated learning, it is difficult to train…
