A stochastic control approach to coding with feedback over degraded broadcast channels
In this paper we attempt to further demonstrate connections between information theory and control, in a networked setting. Specifically, we consider the communication problem of b...

Hybrid control for navigation of shape-accelerated underactuated balancing systems
This paper presents a hybrid control strategy for navigation of shape-accelerated underactuated balancing systems with dynamic constraints. It extends the concept of sequential com...

Completely decentralised navigation of multiple unicycle agents with prioritisation and fault tolerance
Abstract-- We propose an algorithm for decentralised navigation of multiple independent agents, applicable to Robotics and Air Traffic Control (ATC). We present completely decentra...

Node capture attacks in wireless sensor networks: A system theoretic approach
In this paper we address the problem of physical node capture attacks in wireless sensor networks and provide a control theoretic framework to model physical node capture, cloned n...

Semiparametric identification of Hammerstein systems using input reconstruction and a single harmonic input
We present a two-step method for identifying SISO Hammerstein systems. First, using a persistent input with retrospective cost optimization, we estimate a parametric model of the l...

Online Convex Programming and regularization in adaptive control
Online Convex Programming (OCP) is a recently developed model of sequential decision-making in the presence of time-varying uncertainty. In this framework, a decisionmaker selects ...

Estimating state-space models in innovations form using the expectation maximisation algorithm
The expectation maximisation (EM) algorithm has proven to be effective for a range of identification problems. Unfortunately, the way in which the EM algorithm has previously been ...

Application of potent potential functions in eye/head movement control
In this paper we study the human eye movement and the head movement system as a simple mechanical control system. Most of the time, eye movements obey Listing's constraint, wh...

Distance measures for linear systems with multiplicative and inverse multiplicative uncertainty characterisation
Abstract--Input multiplicative and output inverse multiplicative uncertainty characterisations are common in the robust control literature. We present specialised distance measures...
