Multi-Agent Consensus With Relative-State-Dependent Measurement Noises

, 2014
In this note, the distributed consensus corrupted by relative-state-dependent measurement noises is considered. Each agent can measure or receive its neighbors' state information with random noises, whose intensity is a vector function of agents ...

Consensus-Based Load Frequency Control of a Multi-Area Power System

IEEE Access
The integration of renewable energy sources into modern power grids presents challenges for load frequency control (LFC) due to the increased system dynamics and uncertainties introduced by variable generation sources. Traditional LFC methods are limited

Time-Varying Formation Control For Second-Order Discrete-Time Multi- Agent Systems With Switching Topologies and Nonuniform Communication Delays

IEEE Access, 2019
Time-varying formation control and velocity tracking problems for second-order discrete-time multi-agent systems with switching jointly-connected topologies and nonuniform communication delays are investigated.

Input Efficiency for Influencing Swarm [PDF]

, 2012
Many cooperative control problems ranging from formation following, to rendezvous to flocking can be expressed as consensus problems. The ability of an operator to influence the development of consensus within a swarm therefore provides a basic test of ...

Distributed Robust Consensus Control of Multi-agent Systems with Heterogeneous Matching Uncertainties

, 2013
This paper considers the distributed consensus problem of linear multi-agent systems subject to different matching uncertainties for both the cases without and with a leader of bounded unknown control input.

International consensus principles for ethical wildlife control [PDF]

Conservation Biology, 2017
Abstract Human–wildlife conflicts are commonly addressed by excluding, relocating, or lethally controlling animals with the goal of preserving public health and safety, protecting property, or conserving other valued wildlife. However, declining wildlife populations, a lack of efficacy of control methods in achieving desired outcomes,

Localized Data-Driven Consensus Control

IEEE Transactions on Automatic Control
This paper considers a localized data-driven consensus problem for leader-follower multi-agent systems with unknown discrete-time agent dynamics, where each follower computes its local control gain using only their locally collected state and input data.

Consensus Building on Access to Controlled Medicines: A Four-Stage Delphi Consensus Procedure [PDF]

Journal of Pain and Symptom Management, 2013
In 2011, the World Health Organization (WHO) published the policy guidelines Ensuring Balance in National Controlled Substances Policies-Guidance for Availability and Accessibility of Controlled Medicines, presenting a revised version of the previous guidelines from 2000.To describe the consensus process that guided the revision of the guidelines.A ...

Event-Triggered Consensus Control for Second-Order Multi-Agent Systems With/Without Input Time Delay

IEEE Access, 2019
The paper studies the consensus of event-triggered for second-order multi-agent systems (MASs) with or without input time delay. Based on the designed triggering function, a distributed event-triggered control strategy is presented to drive the system to

Persistence based analysis of consensus protocols for dynamic graph networks

, 2014
This article deals with the consensus problem involving agents with time-varying singularities in the dynamics or communication in undirected graph networks. Existing results provide control laws which guarantee asymptotic consensus.
