Linear fusion is a cornerstone of estimation theory. Implementing optimal linear fusion requires knowledge of the covariance of the vector of errors associated with all the estimators. In distributed or cooperative systems, the…

Linear fusion is a cornerstone of estimation theory. Optimal linear fusion was derived by Bar-Shalom and Campo in the 1980s. It requires knowledge of the cross-covariances between the errors of the estimators. In distributed or cooperative…

Covariance intersection (CI) methods provide a principled approach to fusing estimates with unknown cross-correlations by minimizing a worst-case measure of uncertainty that is consistent with the available information. This paper…

This paper introduces a new conservative fusion method to exploit the correlated components within the estimation errors. Fusion is the process of combining multiple estimates of a given state to produce a new estimate with a smaller MSE.…

Emerging large-scale engineering systems rely on distributed fusion for situational awareness, where agents combine noisy local sensor measurements with exchanged information to obtain fused estimates. However, at the sheer scale of these…

This paper is concerned with the sequential covariance intersection (CI) fusion problem that the fusion result is independent of fusion structure including the fusion order and the number of estimates fused in each sequential fusion. An…

In this paper, low-complexity distributed fusion filtering algorithm for mixed continuous-discrete multisensory dynamic systems is proposed. To implement the algorithm a new recursive equations for local cross-covariances are derived. To…

This paper presents a new recursive information consensus filter for decentralized dynamic-state estimation. No structure is assumed about the topology of the network and local estimators are assumed to have access only to local…

Linear fusion of estimates under the condition of no knowledge of correlation of estimation errors has reached maturity. On the other hand, various cases of partial knowledge are still active research areas. A frequent motivation is to deal…

The optimal fusion of estimates in a Distributed Kalman Filter (DKF) requires tracking of the complete network error covariance, problematic in terms of memory and communication. A scalable alternative is to fuse estimates under unknown…

Cooperative localization is considered a key solution for enabling autonomous navigation of multi-vehicle systems (MVS) in GNSS-denied environments. Among all solutions, distributed cooperative localization (DCL) has garnered widespread…

The combinatorial integral approximation (CIA) is a solution technique for integer optimal control problems. In order to regularize the solutions produced by CIA, one can minimize switching costs in one of its algorithmic steps. This leads…

The split covariance intersection filter (split CIF) is a useful tool for general data fusion and has the potential to be applied in a variety of engineering tasks. An indispensable optimization step (referred to as w-optimization) involved…

This paper is concerned with a kind of linear-quadratic (LQ) optimal control problem of backward stochastic differential equation (BSDE) with partial information. The cost functional includes cross terms between the state and control, and…

This work addresses the problem of fusing two random vectors with unknown cross-correlations. We present a formulation and a numerical method for computing the optimal estimate in the minimax sense. We extend our formulation to linear…

The paper studies a class of quadratic optimal control problems for partially observable linear dynamical systems. In contrast to the full information case, the control is required to be adapted to the filtration generated by the…

This paper is concerned with an optimal reinsurance and investment problem for an insurance firm under the criterion of mean-variance. The driving Brownian motion and the rate in return of the risky asset price dynamic equation cannot be…

In this paper, we study the optimal control problem for steering the state covariance of a discrete-time linear stochastic system over a finite time horizon. First, we establish the existence and uniqueness of the optimal control law for a…

This paper studies the distributed state estimation problem for a class of discrete time-varying systems over sensor networks. Firstly, it is shown that a networked Kalman filter with optimal gain parameter is actually a centralized filter,…
