NavEX: A Multi-Agent Coverage in Non-Convex and Uneven Environments via Exemplar-Clustering
Donipolo Ghimire, Carlos Nieto-Granda, Solmaz S. Kia
This paper addresses multi-agent deployment in non-convex and uneven environments. To overcome the limitations of traditional approaches, we introduce Navigable Exemplar-Based Disp…
Optimality Gap of Decentralized Submodular Maximization under Probabilistic Communication
Joan Vendrell, Solmaz Kia
This paper considers the problem of decentralized submodular maximization subject to partition matroid constraint using a sequential greedy algorithm with probabilistic inter-agent…
Stein Coverage: a Variational Inference Approach to Distribution-matching Multisensor Deployment
Donipolo Ghimire, Solmaz S. Kia
This paper examines the spatial coverage optimization problem for multiple sensors in a known convex environment, where the coverage service of each sensor is heterogeneous and ani…
Deterministic Privacy Preservation in Static Average Consensus Problem
Amir-Salar Esteki, Solmaz S. Kia
In this paper we consider the problem of privacy preservation in the static average consensus problem. This problem normally is solved by proposing privacy preservation augmentatio…
A Study on Accelerating Average Consensus Algorithms Using Delayed Feedback
Hossein Moradian, Solmaz S. Kia
In this paper, we study accelerating a Laplacian-based dynamic average consensus algorithm by splitting the conventional delay-free disagreement feedback into weighted summation of…
Distributed Leader Following of an Active Leader for Linear Heterogeneous Multi-Agent Systems
Yi-Fan Chung, Solmaz S. Kia
This paper considers a leader-following problem for a group of heterogeneous linear time invariant (LTI) followers that are interacting over a directed acyclic graph. Only a subset…
Cluster-based Distributed Augmented Lagrangian Algorithm for a Class of Constrained Convex Optimization Problems
Hossein Moradian, Solmaz S. Kia
We propose a distributed solution for a constrained convex optimization problem over a network of clustered agents each consisted of a set of subagents. The communication range of…
A sub-modular receding horizon solution for mobile multi-agent persistent monitoring
Navid Rezazadeh, Solmaz S. Kia
We study the problem of persistent monitoring of a finite number of inter-connected geographical nodes by a group of heterogeneous mobile agents. We assign to each geographical nod…
On the Positive Effect of Delay on the Rate of Convergence of a Class of Linear Time-Delayed Systems
Hossein Moradian, Solmaz S. Kia
This paper is a comprehensive study of a long observed phenomenon of increase in the stability margin and so the rate of convergence of a class of linear systems due to time delay.…
