Absolute Stability via Lifting and Interpolation
Bryan Van Scoy, Laurent Lessard
We revisit the classical problem of absolute stability; assessing the robust stability of a given linear time-invariant (LTI) plant in feedback with a nonlinearity belonging to som…
Optimal Control of Multi-Agent Systems with Processing Delays
Mruganka Kashyap, Laurent Lessard
In this article, we consider a cooperative control problem involving a heterogeneous network of dynamically decoupled continuous-time linear plants. The (output-feedback) controlle…
A Universal Decomposition for Distributed Optimization Algorithms
Bryan Van Scoy, Laurent Lessard
In the distributed optimization problem for a multi-agent system, each agent knows a local function and must find a minimizer of the sum of all agents' local functions by performin…
The Analysis of Optimization Algorithms, A Dissipativity Approach
Laurent Lessard
Optimization problems in engineering and applied mathematics are typically solved in an iterative fashion, by systematically adjusting the variables of interest until an adequate s…
Information-theoretic multi-time-scale partially observable systems with inspiration from leukemia treatment
Margaret P. Chapman, Emily Jensen, Steven M. Chan +1
We study a partially observable nonlinear stochastic system with unknown parameters, where the given time scales of the states and measurements may be distinct. The proposed settin…
