A Communication-Efficient Distributed Optimization Algorithm for Problems with Coupling Constraints
Yuzhu Duan, Ziwen Yang, Xiaoming Duan +1
Resource allocation is a fundamental problem in Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT) systems, in which devices work together under limited communication bandwidth to complete diver…
On the Detection of Markov Decision Processes
Xiaoming Duan, Yagiz Savas, Rui Yan +2
We study the detection problem for a finite set of Markov decision processes (MDPs) where the MDPs have the same state and action spaces but possibly different probabilistic transi…
Stochastic Strategies for Robotic Surveillance as Stackelberg Games
Xiaoming Duan, Dario Paccagnan, Francesco Bullo
This paper studies a stochastic robotic surveillance problem where a mobile robot moves randomly on a graph to capture a potential intruder that strategically attacks a location on…
Markov Chain-Based Stochastic Strategies for Robotic Surveillance
Xiaoming Duan, Francesco Bullo
This article surveys recent advancements of strategy designs for persistent robotic surveillance tasks with the focus on stochastic approaches. The problem describes how mobile rob…
Matching-Based Capture Strategies for 3D Heterogeneous Multiplayer Reach-Avoid Differential Games
Rui Yan, Xiaoming Duan, Zongying Shi +2
This paper studies a 3D multiplayer reach-avoid differential game with a goal region and a play region. Multiple pursuers defend the goal region by consecutively capturing multiple…
Graph-Theoretic Stability Conditions for Metzler Matrices and Monotone Systems
Xiaoming Duan, Saber Jafarpour, Francesco Bullo
This paper studies the graph-theoretic conditions for stability of positive monotone systems. Using concepts from input-to-state stability and network small-gain theory, we first e…
Markov Chains with Maximum Return Time Entropy for Robotic Surveillance
Xiaoming Duan, Mishel George, Francesco Bullo
Motivated by robotic surveillance applications, this paper studies the novel problem of maximizing the return time entropy of a Markov chain, subject to a graph topology with trave…
Linear Stochastic Approximation Algorithms and Group Consensus over Random Signed Networks: A Technical Report with All Proofs
Ge Chen, Xiaoming Duan, Wenjun Mei +1
This paper studies linear stochastic approximation (SA) algorithms and their application to multi-agent systems in engineering and sociology. As main contribution, we provide neces…
