This paper seeks to combine differential game theory with the actor-critic-identifier architecture to determine forward-in-time, approximate optimal controllers for formation tracking in multi-agent systems, where the agents have uncertain…

The current paper addresses the distributed guaranteed-cost synchronization problems for general high-order linear multiagent networks. Existing works on the guaranteed-cost synchronization usually require all state information of…

Coordinating multiple autonomous agents to reach a target region while avoiding collisions and maintaining communication connectivity is a core problem in multi-agent systems. In practice, agents have a limited communication range. Thus,…

Stealthy attacks are a major cyber-security threat. In practice, both attackers and defenders have resource constraints that could limit their capabilities. Hence, to develop robust defense strategies, a promising approach is to utilize…

Distributed control algorithms are known to reduce overall computation time compared to centralized control algorithms. However, they can result in inconsistent solutions leading to the violation of safety-critical constraints. Inconsistent…

This work proposes a distributed estimation and control approach in which a team of aerial agents equipped with radio jamming devices collaborate in order to intercept and concurrently track-and-jam a malicious target, while at the same…

In Multi-Agent Reinforcement Learning, communication is critical to encourage cooperation among agents. Communication in realistic wireless networks can be highly unreliable due to network conditions varying with agents' mobility, and…

This work presents a rigorous analysis of the adverse effects of cyber-physical attacks on discrete-time distributed multi-agent systems, and propose a mitigation approach for attacks on sensors and actuators. First, we show how an attack…

Collaborative working is increasingly popular, but it presents challenges due to the need for high responsiveness and disconnected work support. To address these challenges the data is optimistically replicated at the edges of the network,…

Recent experimental studies have shown that traffic management systems are vulnerable to cyber-attacks on sensor data. This paper studies the vulnerability of fixed-time control of signalized intersections when sensors measuring traffic…

In this paper, we investigate the realization of covert communication in a general radar-communication cooperation system, which includes integrated sensing and communications as a special example. We explore the possibility of utilizing…

This work addresses the finite-time enclosing control problem where a set of followers are deployed to encircle and rotate around multiple moving targets with a predefined spacing pattern in finite time. A novel distributed and continuous…

Distributed dynamic compensators, also known as distributed observer, play a key role in the output consensus problem of heterogeneous nonlinear multi-agent systems. However, most existing distributed dynamic compensators require either the…

Covert communication hides the transmission of a message from a watchful adversary while ensuring reliable information decoding at the receiver, providing enhanced security in wireless communications. In this letter, covert communication in…

Abuse of zero-permission sensors on-board mobile and wearable devices to infer users' personal context and information is a well-known privacy threat that has received significant attention. Efforts towards protection mechanisms that…

In this paper, we propose a distributed guidance law for the simultaneous interception of a stationary target. For a group of `n' heterogeneous pursuers, the proposed guidance law establishes the necessary conditions on static graphs that…

Cooperative multi-agent reinforcement learning is a powerful tool to solve many real-world cooperative tasks, but restrictions of real-world applications may require training the agents in a fully decentralized manner. Due to the lack of…

In this paper, we study covert communications between {a pair of} legitimate transmitter-receiver against a watchful warden over slow fading channels. There coexist multiple friendly helper nodes who are willing to protect the covert…

A fundamental problem in decentralized networked systems is to coordinate actions of different agents so that they reach a state of agreement. In such applications, it is additionally desirable that the actions at various nodes may not be…

The multi-agent spatial coverage control problem encompasses a broad research domain, dealing with both dynamic and static deployment strategies, discrete-task assignments, and spatial distribution-matching deployment. Coverage control may…
