This paper addresses the problem of both actively searching and tracking multiple unknown dynamic objects in a known environment with multiple cooperative autonomous agents with partial observability. The tracking of a target ends when the…
Given a connected region in two-dimensional space where events of a certain kind occur according to a certain time-varying density, we consider the problem of setting up a network of autonomous mobile agents to detect the occurrence of…
We investigate the stabilization of unstable multidimensional partially observed single-sensor and multi-sensor linear systems driven by unbounded noise and controlled over discrete noiseless channels under fixed-rate information…
In this paper, we introduce an optimal control problem for multi-agent systems with non-local cost which favors simultaneous aggregation of particles. This is done introducing a time-dependent notion of multiplicity whose intrinsic…
An important goal for swarming research is to create methods for predicting, controlling and designing swarms, which produce collective dynamics that solve a problem through emergent and stable pattern formation, without the need for…
We consider the problem of using multiple agents to harvest data from a collection of sensor nodes (targets) scattered across a two-dimensional environment. These targets transmit their data to the agents that move in the space above them,…
This paper investigates robust synchronization for multi-agent systems (MASs) governed by parabolic partial differential equations in the presence of both observable and unobservable disturbances. Using only boundary output measurements, a…
We consider the problem of adaptive stabilization for discrete-time, multi-dimensional linear systems with bounded control input constraints and unbounded stochastic disturbances, where the parameters of the true system are unknown. To…
The purpose of this review paper is to present some recent results on the modeling and control of large systems of agents. We focus on particular applications where the agents are capable of independent actions instead of simply reacting to…
Robust stability and stochastic stability have separately seen intense study in control theory for many decades. In this work we establish relations between these properties for discrete-time systems and employ them for robust control…
This paper addresses the problem of navigation control of a general class of uncertain nonlinear multi-agent systems in a bounded workspace of $\mathbb{R}^n$ with static obstacles. In particular, we propose a decentralized control protocol…
The standard practice in modeling dynamics and optimal control of a large population, ensemble, multi-agent system represented by it's continuum density, is to model individual decision making using local feedback information. In comparison…
This paper introduces a new framework for analyzing the stability of discrete-time model predictive controllers acting on continuous-time systems. The proposed framework introduces the distinction between discretization time (used to…
This paper considers an internal model based distributed control approach to the cooperative output regulation problem of heterogeneous linear time-invariant multiagent systems over fixed directed communication graph topologies. First, a…
An autonomous and resilient controller is proposed for leader-follower multi-agent systems under uncertainties and cyber-physical attacks. The leader is assumed non-autonomous with a nonzero control input, which allows changing the team…
We study a multi-agent output regulation problem, where not all agents have access to the exosystem's dynamics. We propose a fully distributed controller that solves the problem for linear, heterogeneous, and uncertain agent dynamics as…
The goal of this report is to define abstractions for multi-agent systems with feedback interconnection in their dynamics. In the proposed decentralized framework, we specify a finite or countable transition system for each agent which only…
We theoretically and numerically study the problem of optimal control of large-scale autonomous systems under explicitly adversarial conditions, including probabilistic destruction of agents during the simulation. Large-scale autonomous…
Development of robust dynamical systems and networks such as autonomous aircraft systems capable of accomplishing complex missions faces challenges due to the dynamically evolving uncertainties coming from model uncertainties, necessity to…
This paper presents an adversary detection mechanism and a resilient control framework for multi-agent systems under spatiotemporal constraints. Safety in multi-agent systems is typically addressed under the assumption that all agents…
