Resilient Distributed Control for Uncertain Nonlinear Interconnected Systems under Network Anomaly
Youqing Wang, Ying Li, Thomas Parisini +1
We address a distributed adaptive control methodology for nonlinear interconnected systems possibly affected by network anomalies. In the framework of adaptive approximation, the d…
Cyber-Physical Risk Assessment for False Data Injection Attacks Considering Moving Target Defences
Martin Higgins, Wangkun Xu, Fei Teng +1
In this paper, we examine the factors that influence the success of false data injection (FDI) attacks in the context of both cyber and physical styles of reinforcement. Many works…
State Estimation Using a Network of Distributed Observers With Unknown Inputs
Guitao Yang, Angelo Barboni, Hamed Rezaee +1
State estimation for a class of linear time-invariant systems with distributed output measurements (distributed sensors) and unknown inputs is addressed in this paper. The objectiv…
Traffic Control in a Mixed Autonomy Scenario at Urban Intersections: An Optimization-based Framework
Arnob Ghosh, Thomas Parisini
We consider an intersection zone where autonomous vehicles (AVs) and human-driven vehicles (HDVs) can be present. As a new vehicle arrives, the traffic controller needs to decide a…
Control of a Mixed Autonomy Signalised Urban Intersection: An Action-Delayed Reinforcement Learning Approach
Erica Salvato, Arnob Ghosh, Gianfranco Fenu +1
We consider a mixed autonomy scenario where the traffic intersection controller decides whether the traffic light will be green or red at each lane for multiple traffic-light block…
A Distributed Methodology for Approximate Uniform Global Minimum Sharing
Michelangelo Bin, Thomas Parisini
The paper deals with the distributed minimum sharing problem: a set of decision-makers compute the minimum of some local quantities of interest in a distributed and decentralized w…
Towards Distributed Accommodation of Covert Attacks in Interconnected Systems
Angelo Barboni, Thomas Parisini
The problem of mitigating maliciously injected signals in interconnected systems is dealt with in this paper. We consider the class of covert attacks, as they are stealthy and cann…
Stealthy MTD Against Unsupervised Learning-based Blind FDI Attacks in Power Systems
Martin Higgins, Fei Teng, Thomas Parisini
This paper examines how moving target defences (MTD) implemented in power systems can be countered by unsupervised learning-based false data injection (FDI) attack and how MTD can…
Distributed watermarking for secure control of microgrids under replay attacks
Alexander J. Gallo, Mustafa S. Turan, Francesca Boem +2
The problem of replay attacks in the communication network between Distributed Generation Units (DGUs) of a DC microgrid is examined. The DGUs are regulated through a hierarchical…
A Convex Optimization Approach for Backstepping PDE Design: Volterra and Fredholm Operators
Pedro Ascencio, Alessandro Astolfi, Thomas Parisini
Backstepping design for boundary linear PDE is formulated as a convex optimization problem. Some classes of parabolic PDEs and a first-order hyperbolic PDE are studied, with partic…
Distributed Adaptive Fault-Tolerant Control of Uncertain Multi-Agent Systems
Mohsen Khalili, Xiaodong Zhang, Marios M. Polycarpou +2
This paper presents an adaptive fault-tolerant control (FTC) scheme for a class of nonlinear uncertain multi-agent systems. A local FTC scheme is designed for each agent using loca…
Plug-and-play fault diagnosis and control-reconfiguration for a class of nonlinear large-scale constrained systems
Stefano Riverso, Francesca Boem, Giancarlo Ferrari-Trecate +1
This paper deals with a novel Plug-and-Play (PnP) architecture for the control and monitoring of Large-Scale Systems (LSSs). The proposed approach integrates a distributed Model Pr…
