Linear, state-delayed, discrete-time, stochastic, switched systems are considered, where the problems of stochastic -gain and state-feedback control designs are treated and solved. We first develop a special version of a bounded real lemma for the said systems for the nominal case.
Based on the this lemma we derive state-feedback gains for nominal systems where in our solution method, to each subsystem of the switched system, a Lyapunov function is assigned that is non-increasing at the switching instants and where a dwell time constrain is imposed on the system. The assigned Lyapunov function is allowed to vary piecewise linearly in time, starting at the end of the previous switch instant, and it becomes time-invariant after the dwell. Based on the solution of the state-feedback control for nominal systems and exploiting the fact that this solution is affine in the system matrices, a state-feedback control is derived for the polytopic case. We bring a numerical example that demonstrates the solvability and tractability of our solution method.

While data-driven control has shown its potential for solving complex tasks, current algorithms such as reinforcement learning are still data-intensive and often limited to simulated environments. Model-based learning is a promising approach to reducing the amount of data required in practical implementations, yet it suffers from a critical issue known as model exploitation. In this paper, we present a sequential approach to model-based learning that avoids model exploitation and achieves stable system behaviors during learning with minimal exploration. The advocated control design utilizes estimates of the system’s local dynamics to step-by-step improve the control. During the process, when additional data is required, the program pauses the control synthesis to collect data in the surrounding area and updates the model accordingly. The local and sequential nature of this approach is the key component to regulating the system’s exploration in the state–action space and, at the same time, avoiding the issue of model exploitation, which are the main challenges in model-based learning control. Through simulated examples and physical experiments, we demonstrate that the proposed approach can quickly learn a desirable control from scratch, with just a small number of trials.

For impulse control systems described by a measure driven differential equation, depending linearly on the measure, it is customary to interpret the state trajectory corresponding to an impulse control, specified by a measure, as the limit of state trajectories associated with some sequence of conventional controls approximating the measure. It is known that, when the measure is vector valued, it is possible that different choices of approximating sequences for the measure give rise to different limiting state trajectories. If the measure is scalar valued, however, there is a unique limiting trajectory. Now consider impulse control systems, in which the right side of the measure driven differential equation depends on both the current and delayed states. In recent work by the authors it has been shown that, for such impulse control systems with time delay, the state trajectory corresponding to a given measure may be non-unique, even when the measure is scalar valued. It was also shown that each limiting state trajectory can be identified with the unique state trajectory associated with some measure together with a family of ‘attached controls’. (The attached controls capture the nature of the measure approximation.) The authors also derived a maximum principle governing minimizers for a general class of impulse optimal control problems with time delay, in which the domain of the optimization problem comprises measures coupled with a family of ‘attached controls’. The purpose of this paper is both to illustrate, by means of an example, this newly discovered non-uniqueness phenomenon and to provide the first application of the new maximum principle, to investigate minimizers for scalar input impulse optimal control problems with time delay, in circumstances when limiting state trajectories associated with a given measure control are not unique. The example is an optimal control problem, for which the underlying control system is a forced harmonic oscillator, with scalar impulse control, in which the control gain is a nonlinear function of the current and delayed states.

In this study, we considered the problem of inverse reinforcement learning or estimating the cost function of expert players in multi-player differential games. We proposed two online data-driven solutions for linear–quadratic games that are applicable to systems that fulfill a specific dimension criterion or whose unknown matrices in the cost function conform to a diagonal condition. The first method, which is partially model-free, utilizes the trajectories of expert agents to solve the problem. The second method is entirely model-free and employs the trajectories of both expert and learner agents. We determined the conditions under which the solutions are applicable and identified the necessary requirements for the collected data. We conducted numerical simulations to establish the effectiveness of the proposed methods.

We develop a novel frequency-domain approach to address the important open issue of estimating passive local modules within dynamic networks. The method applies an approach based on two stages, a non-parametric and a parametric one. The parametric stage is an extension of the vector fitting technique that incorporates energy consistency conditions as a fundamental component of the identification procedure, forming a path of the passive model in the Sanathanan–Koerner iterations. The approach includes a formulation via linear matrix inequalities to enforce energy-balance conditions resulting in a convex optimization problem. The approach is practical even under weak assumptions on noise, enabling real-world applications. Numerical simulations illustrate the potential of the developed method to effectively estimate local passive modules in dynamic networks.

This paper studies the min–max group consensus of discrete-time multi-agent systems under a directed random graph, where the presence of each directed edge is randomly determined by a probability and independent of the presence of other edges. Firstly, we propose a min–max consensus protocol without memory, and give the necessary and sufficient conditions to ensure that the multi-agent system can achieve the min–max group consensus in the sense of almost sure and mean square, respectively. Secondly, we design a novel consensus protocol with memory and a behavior mechanism. Using the stochastic analysis theory and the extremal algebra, some necessary and sufficient conditions are obtained for achieving the min–max group consensus in the sense of almost sure and mean square, respectively. It is shown that the protocol with memory can solve the loss problem of the maximum and minimum initial states. Finally, the effectiveness of the two group consensus protocols and the behavior mechanism is verified by four numerical simulations.

This paper analyzes the local set stability of probabilistic Boolean networks (PBNs), including local finite-time set stability with probability one (FSSPO) and local asymptotic set stability with probability one (ASSPO). Firstly, a necessary and sufficient condition is proposed for the local FSSPO of PBNs. Then, a reachable set with probability one is constructed, based on which, the largest domain of attraction for the local FSSPO of PBNs is determined. Secondly, by constructing two parameterized sets, the transition probability matrix of PBNs is properly partitioned, and the largest domain of attraction for the ASSPO is depicted. Finally, for PBNs which are locally stable, the target control is introduced to achieve the global FSSPO and global ASSPO of PBNs, respectively.

This work is concerned with the synchronization issue of complex networks suffering from Denial-of-Service (DoS) attacks. The derivative coupling has been proposed to model the nodes which are capable of perceiving state changing. An overarching handling procedure is initially introduced to convert derivatively coupled dynamic networks into a general form. To offset the information missing resulting from DoS attacks, an intricately crafted memory-based self-triggered impulsive controller (MBSTIC) is devised. The introduced scheme involves the meticulous collection of nodes’ historical state information. By jointly considering Lyapunov stability theorem and mathematical deduction approach, sufficient conditions for ensuring synchronous behavior for controlled networks are derived. A numerical example is given to demonstrate that the proposed method exhibits considerable performance when facing DoS attacks.

This paper is devoted to the nonconvex control input constrained containment control problem for multi-agent systems with non-particle leaders, switching topologies, and communication delays. A decentralized algorithm is adopted for followers with discrete-time high-order dynamics. Through model transformations and by analyzing the convergence of the maximum distance from the followers to the convex hull, it is demonstrated that each follower finally moves into the convex hull created by the leaders, even in the presence of nonconvex input constraints, non-particle leaders, switching topologies, and communication delays. Finally, numerical examples demonstrate the effectiveness of the theoretical conclusions.

The inertial measurement unit (IMU) preintegration approach nowadays is widely used in various robotic applications. In this article, we revisit the preintegration theory and propose a novel interpretation to understand it from a nonlinear observer perspective, specifically the parameter estimation-based observer (PEBO). We demonstrate that the preintegration approach can be viewed as a recursive implementation of PEBO in moving horizons, and that the two approaches are equivalent with perfect measurements. We then discuss how these findings can be used to tackle practical challenges in estimation problems. As byproducts, our results lead to a novel hybrid sampled-data observer design and an approach to address statistical optimality for PEBO in the presence of noise.
