• Statistical Traffic Anomaly Detection in Time-Varying Communication Networks

Publication Year: 2015, Page(s):100 - 111
Cited by:  Papers (4)
| | PDF (1615 KB) | HTML

We propose two methods for traffic anomaly detection in communication networks where properties of normal traffic evolve dynamically. We formulate the anomaly detection problem as a binary composite hypothesis testing problem and develop a model-free and a model-based method, leveraging techniques from the theory of large deviations. Both methods first extract a family of probability laws (PLs) th... View full abstract»

• Distributed Consensus Observers-Based $H_{\infty}$ Control of Dissipative PDE Systems Using Sensor Networks

Publication Year: 2015, Page(s):112 - 121
Cited by:  Papers (2)
| | PDF (542 KB) | HTML

This paper considers the problem of finite dimensional output feedback H control for a class of nonlinear spatially distributed processes described by highly dissipative partial differential equations (PDEs), whose state is observed by a sensor network (SN) with a given topology. This class of systems typically involves a spatial differential operator whose eigenspectrum can be ... View full abstract»

• Collision-Free Formation Control with Decentralized Connectivity Preservation for Nonholonomic-Wheeled Mobile Robots

Publication Year: 2015, Page(s):122 - 130
Cited by:  Papers (8)
| | PDF (494 KB) | HTML

The preservation of connectivity in mobile robot networks is critical to the success of most existing algorithms designed to achieve various goals. The most basic method to preserve connectivity is to have each agent preserve its set of neighbors for all time. More advanced methods preserve a (minimum) spanning tree in the network. Other methods are based on increasing the algebraic graph connecti... View full abstract»

• Adaptive Synchronization of Diffusively Coupled Systems

Publication Year: 2015, Page(s):131 - 141
| | PDF (1194 KB) | HTML

We present an adaptive algorithm that guarantees synchronization in diffusively coupled systems. We first consider compartmental systems of ODEs where variables in each compartment are interconnected through diffusion terms with like variables in other compartments. Each set of variables may have its own weighted undirected graph describing the topology of the interconnection between compartments.... View full abstract»

• Emergent Behaviors Over Signed Random Dynamical Networks: State-Flipping Model

Publication Year: 2015, Page(s):142 - 153
Cited by:  Papers (6)
| | PDF (466 KB) | HTML

Recent studies from social, biological, and engineering network systems have drawn attention to the dynamics over signed networks, where each link is associated with a positive/negative sign indicating trustful/mistrustful, activator/inhibitor, or secure/malicious interactions. We study asymptotic dynamical patterns that emerge among a set of nodes that interact in a dynamically evolving signed ra... View full abstract»

• Distributed PID Control for Consensus of Homogeneous and Heterogeneous Networks

Publication Year: 2015, Page(s):154 - 163
Cited by:  Papers (8)
| | PDF (434 KB) | HTML

We investigate the use of distributed proportional-integral-derivative (PID) actions to achieve consensus in networks of homogeneous and heterogeneous linear systems. Convergence of the strategy is proved for both cases using appropriate state transformations and Lyapunov functions. The effectiveness of the theoretical results is illustrated via its application to a representative power-grid model... View full abstract»

• Capacity-Aware Backpressure Traffic Signal Control

Publication Year: 2015, Page(s):164 - 173
Cited by:  Papers (8)
| | PDF (1408 KB) | HTML

The control of a network of signalized intersections is considered. Previous work demonstrates that the so-called backpressure control provides stability guarantees, assuming infinite queues capacities. In this paper, we highlight the failing current of backpressure control under finite capacities by identifying sources of nonwork conservation and congestion propagation. We propose the use of a no... View full abstract»

• Asymptotic Synchronization of a Leader-Follower Network of Uncertain Euler-Lagrange Systems

Publication Year: 2015, Page(s):174 - 182
Cited by:  Papers (6)
| | PDF (564 KB) | HTML

This paper investigates the synchronization of a network of Euler-Lagrange systems with leader tracking. The Euler-Lagrange systems are heterogeneous and uncertain and contain bounded, exogenous disturbances. The network leader has a time-varying trajectory which is known to only a subset of the follower agents. A robust integral sign of the error-based decentralized control law is developed to yi...

• Detection and Isolation of Failures in Directed Networks of LTI Systems

Publication Year: 2015, Page(s):183 - 192
Cited by:  Papers (3)
| | PDF (577 KB) | HTML

We propose a methodology to detect and isolate link failures in a weighted and directed network of identical multi-input multioutput linear time-invariant (LTI) systems when only the output responses of a subset of nodes are available. Our method is based on the observation of jump discontinuities in the output derivatives, which can be explicitly related to the occurrence of link failures. The or... View full abstract»

• Specification and Synthesis of Reactive Protocols for Aircraft Electric Power Distribution

Publication Year: 2015, Page(s):193 - 203
Cited by:  Papers (1)
| | PDF (742 KB) | HTML

The increasing complexity of electric power systems leads to challenges in integration and verification. We consider the problem of designing a control protocol for an aircraft electric power system that meets a set of requirements describing the correct behaviors of the system and reacts dynamically to changes in internal system states. We formalize the requirements by translating them into a tem... View full abstract»

• Event-Triggered Pinning Control of Switching Networks

Publication Year: 2015, Page(s):204 - 213
Cited by:  Papers (10)
| | PDF (1181 KB) | HTML

This paper investigates event-triggered pinning control for the synchronization of complex networks of nonlinear dynamical systems. We consider networks described by time-varying weighted graphs and featuring generic linear interaction protocols. Sufficient conditions for the absence of Zeno behavior are derived and exponential convergence of a global normed error function is proven. Static networ... View full abstract»
