Enabling Stochastic Dynamic Games for Robotic Swarms
Advanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.This paper scales stochastic dynamic games to large swarms of robots through selective agent modeling and variable partial belief space planning. We formulate these games using a belief space variant of iterative Linear Quadratic Gaussian (iLQG). We scale to teams of 50 agents through selective modeling based on the estimated influence of agents ...

Multireference Alignment using Semidefinite Programming
, 2013 The multireference alignment problem consists of estimating a signal from multiple noisy shifted observations. Inspired by existing Unique-Games approximation algorithms, we provide a semidefinite program (SDP) based relaxation which approximates the ...

Monte Carlo algorithms for the detection of necessary linear matrix inequality constraints [PDF]
, 2001 We reduce the size of large semidefinite programming problems by identifying necessary linear matrix inequalities (LMI's) using Monte Carlo techniques.

Edge‐Length Preserving Embeddings of Graphs Between Normed Spaces
Journal of Graph Theory, EarlyView.ABSTRACT The concept of graph embeddability, initially formalized by Belk and Connelly and later expanded by Sitharam and Willoughby, extends the question of embedding finite metric spaces into a given normed space. A finite simple graph G = ( V , E ) $G=(V,E)$ is said to be ( X , Y ) $(X,Y)$‐embeddable if any set of induced edge lengths from an ...

International Journal of Mechanical System Dynamics, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Hydraulic manipulators exhibit strong coupling, pronounced nonlinearities, and significant modeling uncertainties, which hinder high‐precision motion control. This paper proposes a finite‐time disturbance observer–based nonlinear robust adaptive control (RAC‐FTDO) framework enhanced by a physically consistent dynamic parameter identification ...

Prestress Design of Tensegrity Structures Using Semidefinite Programming
Advances in Civil Engineering, 2019 Finding appropriate prestresses which can stabilize the system is a key step in the design of tensegrity structures. A semidefinite programming- (SDP-) based approach is developed in this paper to determine appropriate prestresses for tensegrity ...

Measured‐State Conditioned Recursive Feasibility for Stochastic Model Predictive Control
International Journal of Robust and Nonlinear Control, EarlyView.ABSTRACT In this paper, we address the problem of designing stochastic model predictive control (SMPC) schemes for linear systems affected by unbounded disturbances. The contribution of the paper is rooted in a measured‐state initialization strategy. First, due to the nonzero probability of violating chance‐constraints in the case of unbounded noise ...

The role of identification in data‐driven policy iteration: A system theoretic study
International Journal of Robust and Nonlinear Control, EarlyView.Abstract The goal of this article is to study fundamental mechanisms behind so‐called indirect and direct data‐driven control for unknown systems. Specifically, we consider policy iteration applied to the linear quadratic regulator problem. Two iterative procedures, where data collected from the system are repeatedly used to compute new estimates of ...
