— Sum-of-squares (SOS) methods have been shown to be very useful in computing polynomial Lyapunov functions for systems of reasonably small size. However for large scale systems ...
— We present a controller synthesis algorithm for reach-avoid problems for piecewise linear discrete-time systems. Our algorithm relies on SMT solvers and in this paper we focus ...

Abstract— This paper proposes a velocity coordination protocol for the control of multiple unicycle agents, which aims to address two distinct scenarios in a unified manner. The...
— We study two metrics in stochastic consensus dynamics with leaders or stubborn agents: network coherence (defined in terms of the system H2 and H∞ norms), and convergence ra...

— In this paper, we present a fundamental limitation of disturbance attenuation in discrete-time single-input singleoutput (SISO) feedback systems when the controller has delayed...
— This paper considers a multi-agent consensus problem over strongly connected and balanced directed graphs. Unlike many works that consider continuous or periodic communication ...
— This paper presents a path-planning control for an intermittently actuated oceanographic vehicle in a timeinvariant flow field based on Lagrangian measurement data. The ocean...
Abstract— Robotic walkers are a promising techological direction to improve the mobility of older adults. In this paper, we propose a guidance mechanism based on the differential...

— This paper investigates prediction-based control for nonlinear systems subject to both pointwise input- and (potentially) distributed state-delays. We address infinity-norm st...

— Entropy and information are crucial notions in stochastic communication systems. However, they have arguably not been as central in control theory, which has a rich tradition o...
