Designing scalable, noise-tolerant control protocols for multipartite entanglement is a central challenge for quantum technologies, and it naturally calls for \emph{algorithmic} synthesis of interaction parameters rather than handcrafted…

In various applications in the field of control engineering the estimation of the state variables of dynamic systems in the presence of unknown inputs plays an important role. Existing methods require the so-called observer matching…

This paper analyzes output feedback control of a class of unknown nonlinear systems in the presence of measurement noise using multiple high-gain observers (MHGO). It is well-known that single high-gain observers (HGO) are not able to…

The distributed observer design problem holds significant importance in cases in which the output information of a system is decentralized across different subsystems. Each subsystem has a local observer and access to one part of the…

The control of complex systems and network-coupled dynamical systems is a topic of vital theoretical importance in mathematics and physics with a wide range of applications in engineering and various other sciences. Motivated by recent…

We propose a method for constructing optimal block designs for experiments on networks. The response model for a given network interference structure extends the linear network effects model to incorporate blocks. The optimality criteria…

Several concepts on the measure of observability, reachability, and robustness are defined and illustrated for both linear and nonlinear control systems. Defined by using computational dynamic optimization, these concepts are applicable to…

We provide a systematic interval observer design method for detectable linear time-invariant (LTI) systems, where a part of the state is observable from the measured output. An observability-based invertible LTI transformation decomposes…

We address the problem of state estimation, attack isolation, and control of discrete-time linear time-invariant systems under (potentially unbounded) actuator and sensor false data injection attacks. Using a bank of unknown input…

This paper focuses on the use of unknown input observers for detection and isolation of actuator and effector faults with control reconfiguration in overactuated systems. The control allocation actively uses input redundancy in order to…

This paper derives for non-linear, time-varying and feedback linearizable systems simple controller designs to achieve specified state-and timedependent complex convergence rates. This approach can be regarded as a general gain-scheduling…

How to observe the state of a network from a limited number of measurements has become an important issue in complex networks, engineering, communication, epidemiology, etc. Under some scenarios, it is neither unfeasible nor unnecessary to…

A Boolean network (BN) is called observable if any initial state can be uniquely determined from the output sequence. In the existing literature on observability of BNs, there is almost no research on the relationship between the number of…

Alignment of the strapdown inertial navigation system (INS) has strong nonlinearity, even worse when maneuvers, e.g., tumbling techniques, are employed to improve the alignment. There is no general rule to attack the observability of a…

Contraction analysis offers, through elegant mathematical developments, a unified way of designing observers for a general class of nonlinear systems, where the observer correction term is obtained by solving an infinite dimensional…

The quantification of controllability and observability has recently received new interest in the context of large, complex networks of dynamical systems. A fundamental but computationally difficult problem is the placement or selection of…

Block-to-block interface interpolation operators are constructed for several common high-order finite difference discretizations. In contrast to conventional interpolation operators, these new interpolation operators maintain the strict…

This paper presents a new observer design approach for linear time invariant multivariable systems subject to unknown inputs. The design is based on a transformation to the so-called special coordinate basis. This form reveals important…

A common approach to controlling complex networks is to directly control a subset of input nodes, which then controls the remaining nodes via network interactions. While techniques have been proposed for selecting input nodes based on…

In this work we propose techniques for efficient reachability analysis of the state space (e.g., detection of bad states) using a combination of partial order and symmetry based reductions in a distributed setting. The proposed techniques…
