In this work, we focus on solving a decentralized consensus problem in a private manner. Specifically, we consider a setting in which a group of nodes, connected through a network, aim at computing the mean of their local values without…

We consider the problem of multi-agent consensus where some agents are subject to faults/attacks and might make updates arbitrarily. The network consists of agents taking integer-valued (i.e., quantized) states under directed communication…

This paper investigates the differentially private consensus problem for general linear multi-agent systems (MASs) based on output feedback protocols. To protect the output information, which is considered private data and may be at high…

We study the problem of resilient average consensus for multi-agent systems with misbehaving nodes. To protect consensus valuefrom being influenced by misbehaving nodes, we address this problem by detecting misbehaviors, mitigating the…

This paper studies the consensus problem of general linear discrete-time multi-agent systems (MAS) with input constraints and bounded time-varying communication delays. We propose a robust distributed model predictive control (DMPC)…

Privacy protection and nonconvexity are two challenging problems in decentralized optimization and learning involving sensitive data. Despite some recent advances addressing each of the two problems separately, no results have been reported…

This paper discusses distributed approaches for the solution of random convex programs (RCP). RCPs are convex optimization problems with a (usually large) number N of randomly extracted constraints; they arise in several applicative areas,…

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…

The Alternating Direction Method of Multipliers (ADMM) and its distributed version have been widely used in machine learning. In the iterations of ADMM, model updates using local private data and model exchanges among agents impose critical…

This paper investigates the consensus problem of general linear multi-agent systems under the framework of optimization. A novel distributed receding horizon control (RHC) strategy for consensus is proposed. We show that the consensus…

In privacy-preserving machine learning, individual parties are reluctant to share their sensitive training data due to privacy concerns. Even the trained model parameters or prediction can pose serious privacy leakage. To address these…

In this paper, a distributed velocity-constrained consensus problem is studied for discrete-time multi-agent systems, where each agent's velocity is constrained to lie in a nonconvex set. A distributed constrained control algorithm is…

This paper considers distributed optimization (DO) where multiple agents cooperate to minimize a global objective function, expressed as a sum of local objectives, subject to some constraints. In DO, each agent iteratively solves a local…

R\'{e}nyi Pufferfish Privacy (RPP) provides a R\'{e}nyi divergence-based privacy framework for correlated data, but existing $\infty$-Wasserstein mechanisms are often conservative and sacrifice data utility. We study Gaussian mechanisms for…

As the modern world becomes increasingly digitized and interconnected, distributed signal processing has proven to be effective in processing its large volume of data. However, a main challenge limiting the broad use of distributed signal…

The alternating direction method of multipliers (ADMM) has been recently recognized as a promising optimizer for large-scale machine learning models. However, there are very few results studying ADMM from the aspect of communication costs,…

Suppose that party A collects private information about its users, where each user's data is represented as a bit vector. Suppose that party B has a proprietary data mining algorithm that requires estimating the distance between users, such…

Differential privacy is a formal mathematical {stand-ard} for quantifying the degree of that individual privacy in a statistical database is preserved. To guarantee differential privacy, a typical method is adding random noise to the…

This paper considers the resilient multi-dimensional consensus problem in networked systems, where some of the agents might be malicious (or faulty). We propose a multi-dimensional consensus algorithm, where at each time step each healthy…

Electrical load profiling supports retailers and distribution network operators in having a better understanding of the consumption behavior of consumers. However, traditional clustering methods for load profiling are centralized and…
