TLDR
It is shown that information consensus under dynamically changing interaction topologies can be achieved asymptotically if the union of the directed interaction graphs have a spanning tree frequently enough as the system evolves.Abstract:
This note considers the problem of information consensus among multiple agents in the presence of limited and unreliable information exchange with dynamically changing interaction topologies. Both discrete and continuous update schemes are proposed for information consensus. This note shows that information consensus under dynamically changing interaction topologies can be achieved asymptotically if the union of the directed interaction graphs have a spanning tree frequently enough as the system evolves.read more

Optimal Containment Control of Unknown Heterogeneous Systems With Active Leaders
TL;DR: This brief presents a partially model-free solution to the distributed containment control of multiagent systems using off-policy reinforcement learning (RL) using inhomogeneous algebraic Riccati equations (AREs) to solve the optimal containment control with active leaders.

Further results on decentralised coordination in networks of agents with second-order dynamics
Peng Lin,Yingmin Jia +1 more
TL;DR: This study investigates consensus problems for networks of second-order agents, where each agent can only access the relative position information from its neighbours, with results showing several conditions are presented to make all agents asymptotically reach consensus while accomplishing some tasks.

Consensus Based Overlapping Decentralized Estimation With Missing Observations and Communication Faults
TL;DR: In this paper, a new algorithm for discrete-time overlapping decentralized state estimation of large scale systems is proposed in the form of a multi-agent network based on a combination of local Kalman filters and a dynamic consensus strategy, assuming intermittent observations and communication faults.

Containment Control for General Second-Order Multiagent Systems With Switched Dynamics
TL;DR: This paper investigates the distributed containment control problem for a class of general second-order multiagent systems with switched dynamics, which is composed of a continuous-time (CT) subsystem and a discrete- time (DT) subsystem.

Consensus problems in networks of agents with switching topology and time-delays
TL;DR: A distinctive feature of this work is to address consensus problems for networks with directed information flow by establishing a direct connection between the algebraic connectivity of the network and the performance of a linear consensus protocol.

TL;DR: A theoretical explanation for the observed behavior of the Vicsek model, which proves to be a graphic example of a switched linear system which is stable, but for which there does not exist a common quadratic Lyapunov function.
