Cyclic pursuit formation control for arbitrary desired shapes
Anna Fujioka, Masaki Ogura, Naoki Wakamiya
A multi-agent system comprises numerous agents that autonomously make decisions to collectively accomplish tasks, drawing significant attention for their wide-ranging applications.…
Route Design in Sheepdog System--Traveling Salesman Problem Formulation and Evolutionary Computation Solution--
Wataru Imahayashi, Yusuke Tsunoda, Masaki Ogura
In this study, we consider the guidance control problem of the sheepdog system, which involves the guidance of the flock using the characteristics of the sheepdog and sheep. Sheepd…
Manipulation of Neuronal Network Firing Patterns using Temporal Deep Unfolding-based MPC
Jumpei Aizawa, Masaki Ogura, Masanori Shimono +1
Because neuronal networks are intricate systems composed of interconnected neurons, their control poses challenges owing to their nonlinearity and complexity. In this paper, we pro…
Shepherding Heterogeneous Flocks: Overview and Prospect
Anna Fujioka, Masaki Ogura, Naoki Wakamiya
The problem of guiding a flock of several autonomous agents using repulsion force exerted by a smaller number of agents is called the shepherding problem and has been attracting at…
Reduced-Order Model Predictive Control of a Fish Schooling Model
Masaki Ogura, Naoki Wakamiya
We study the problem of model predictive control (MPC) for the fish schooling model proposed by Gautrais et al. (Annales Zoologici Fennici, 2008). The high nonlinearity of the mode…
Optimization of stochastic switching buffer network via DC programming
Chengyan Zhao, Kazunori Sakurama, Masaki Ogura
This letter deals with the optimization problems of stochastic switching buffer networks, where the switching law is governed by Markov process. The dynamical buffer network is int…
