Coverage control for mobile sensing networks

TL;DR: This paper proposes gradient descent algorithms for a class of utility functions which encode optimal coverage and sensing policies which are adaptive, distributed, asynchronous, and verifiably correct.
Journal ArticleDOI

Brief paper: Distributed adaptive control for synchronization of unknown nonlinear networked systems

TL;DR: A Lyapunov technique is presented for designing a robust adaptive synchronization control protocol for distributed systems having non-identical unknown nonlinear dynamics, and for a target dynamics to be tracked that is also nonlinear and unknown.
Journal ArticleDOI

Consensus of Multi-Agent Systems With Diverse Input and Communication Delays

TL;DR: The consensus problem for multi-agent systems with input and communication delays is studied based on the frequency-domain analysis and two decentralized consensus conditions are obtained.
Journal ArticleDOI

Lyapunov, Adaptive, and Optimal Design Techniques for Cooperative Systems on Directed Communication Graphs

TL;DR: This paper presents three design techniques for cooperative control of multiagent systems on directed graphs, namely, Lyapunov design, neural adaptive design, and linear quadratic regulator (LQR)-based optimal design.
Journal ArticleDOI

Technical communique: Consensus of second-order discrete-time multi-agent systems with nonuniform time-delays and dynamically changing topologies

TL;DR: It is shown that arbitrary bounded time-delays can safely be tolerated, even though the communication structures between agents dynamically change over time and the corresponding directed graphs may not have spanning trees.

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.

Algebraic Graph Theory

TL;DR: The Laplacian of a Graph and Cuts and Flows are compared to the Rank Polynomial.

Coordination of groups of mobile autonomous agents using nearest neighbor rules

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.
Proceedings ArticleDOI

Flocks, herds and schools: A distributed behavioral model

TL;DR: In this article, an approach based on simulation as an alternative to scripting the paths of each bird individually is explored, with the simulated birds being the particles and the aggregate motion of the simulated flock is created by a distributed behavioral model much like that at work in a natural flock; the birds choose their own course.

Introduction to Functional Differential Equations

TL;DR: The present book builds upon the earlier work of J. Hale, "Theory of Functional Differential Equations" published in 1977 and attempts to maintain the spirit of that book and have retained approximately one-third of the material intact.
