A Multi-Layer K-means Approach for Multi-Sensor Data Pattern Recognition in Multi-Target Localization
Samuel Silva, Rengan Suresh, Feng Tao +2
Data-target association is an important step in multi-target localization for the intelligent operation of un- manned systems in numerous applications such as search and rescue, tr…
Multi-Objective Cooperative Search of Spatially Diverse Routes in Uncertain Environments
Johnathan Votion, Yongcan Cao
This paper focuses on developing new navigation and reconnaissance capabilities for cooperative unmanned systems in uncertain environments. The goal is to design a cooperative mult…
Multi-Sensor Data Pattern Recognition for Multi-Target Localization: A Machine Learning Approach
Kasthurirengan Suresh, Samuel Silva, Johnathan Votion +1
Data-target pairing is an important step towards multi-target localization for the intelligent operation of unmanned systems. Target localization plays a crucial role in numerous a…
Towards Energy-Efficient Communication Management in the Distributed Control of Networked Cyber-Physical Systems
Yongcan Cao, Eduardo Pasiliao
In this paper, we study the distributed control of networked cyber-physical systems when a much more energy-efficient distributed communication management strategy is proposed to s…
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…
Bridge Consensus: Ignoring Initial Inessentials
David W. Casbeer, Yongcan Cao, Eloy Garcia +1
In this paper, the problem of bridge consensus is presented and solved. Bridge consensus consists of a network of nodes, some of whom are participating and others are non-participa…
UAV Circumnavigating an Unknown Target Under a GPS-denied Environment with Range-only Measurements
Yongcan Cao
One typical application of unmanned aerial vehicles is the intelligence, surveillance, and reconnaissance mission, where the objective is to improve situation awareness through inf…
Circumnavigation of an Unknown Target Using UAVs with Range and Range Rate Measurements
Yongcan Cao, Jonathan Muse, David Casbeer +1
This paper presents two control algorithms enabling a UAV to circumnavigate an unknown target using range and range rate (i.e., the derivative of range) measurements. Given a presc…
