Detectability of Intermittent Zero-Dynamics Attack in Networked Control Systems
Yanbing Mao, Hamidreza Jafarnejadsani, Pan Zhao +2
This paper analyzes stealthy attacks, particularly the zero-dynamics attack (ZDA) in networked control systems. ZDA hides the attack signal in the null-space of the state-space rep…
Novel Defense Strategy Against Zero-Dynamics Attack in Multi-Agent Systems
Yanbing Mao, Emrah Akyol, Ziang Zhang
This paper considers the defense strategy of strategic topology switching for the second-order multi-agent system under zero-dynamics attack (ZDA) whose attack-starting time is all…
Impact of Confirmation Bias on Competitive Information Spread in Social Networks
Yanbing Mao, Emrah Akyol, Naira Hovakimyan
This paper investigates the impact of confirmation bias on competitive information spread in the cyber-social network that comprises individuals in a social network and competitive…
On Inference of Network Topology and Confirmation Bias in Cyber-Social Networks
Yanbing Mao, Emrah Akyol
This paper studies topology inference, from agent states, of a directed cyber-social network with opinion spreading dynamics model that explicitly takes confirmation bias into acco…
Novel Stealthy Attack and Defense Strategies for Networked Control Systems
Yanbing Mao, Hamidreza Jafarnejadsani, Pan Zhao +2
This paper studies novel attack and defense strategies, based on a class of stealthy attacks, namely the zero-dynamics attack (ZDA), for multi-agent control systems. ZDA poses a fo…
