Algorithms for Joint Sensor and Control Nodes Selection in Dynamic Networks
(Elsevier Ltd, 2019-05-17)The problem of placing or selecting sensors and control nodes plays a pivotal role in the operation of dynamic networks. This paper proposes optimal algorithms and heuristics to solve the Simultaneous Sensor and Actuator ... -
Performance Bounds for Optimal Feedback Control in Networks
Many important complex networks, including critical infrastructure and emerging industrial automation systems, are becoming increasingly intricate webs of interacting feedback control loops. A fundamental concern is to ... -
Simultaneous Sensor and Actuator Selection/Placement through Output Feedback Control
In most dynamic networks, it is impractical to measure all of the system states; instead, only a subset of the states are measured through sensors. Consequently, and unlike full state feedback controllers, output feedback ... -
Stochastic Optimal Power Flow Based on Data-Driven Distributionally Robust Optimization
We propose a data-driven method to solve a stochastic optimal power flow (OPF) problem based on limited information about forecast error distributions. The objective is to determine power schedules for controllable devices ... -
Concurrent Goal Assignment and Collision-Free Trajectory Generation for Multiple Aerial Robots
We develop computationally tractable methods for concurrent goal assignment and planning of collision-free trajectories for multiple aerial robot systems. Our method first assigns robots to goals to minimize total ...
