Title: Exploiting Local Invariance for Resiliency in Distributed Average Consensus

Abstract: Recent developments in digital systems and networking technologies have led to the emergence of complex systems that need to be managed/controlled over cyber infrastructures, such as wireless and wired broadband networks. The emergence of this type of network control systems, which range from smart grids and transportation networks of various sorts, to embedded electronic devices and robotic networks, has sparked huge interest in distributed control and coordination problems. In this talk, we present recent progress in this area by focusing on an operation that is key for several such tasks: the distributed computation of the average (more generally, a weighted linear combination) of distinct parameters held at different agents of a multi-agent system. We discuss challenges pertaining to adversarial network conditions, such as packet drops on the communication links and/or the presence of faulty/malicious agents. In particular, we report on key invariance properties that can be checked locally to distributively perform error detection/correction. The resulting approach allows non-faulty/non-malicious agents to collectively remove the effects of previous communication exchanges with agents that are subsequently determined to be faulty/malicious.

Title: Distributed formation control: Motivations, theory and implementations

Abstract: This talk firstly presents the motivations of distributed formation control problems. Inspired from collective behaviors of animals, the distributed formation control laws use relative information defined in local coordinate frames. Thus, from sensing and actuation perspectives, the formation control laws are fully distributed. The graph theory is employed to describe the relative interactions among agents. Specifically, to define a unique configuration of formation, the rigidity theory is used. Consequently, as the second part of the talk, the concepts of framework, equivalence, congruence, and local and global rigidity are introduced. Based on the collective behavior mechanism of biological systems and the concepts of graph rigidity, distributed formation control laws are mathematically refined to show how they are related to the animal’s sensing mechanisms. Lastly, the techniques for implementing the formation control laws to mobile multi-agent systems are introduced and experiment results are briefly presented. In this talk, we would like to seek for a further opportunity for applying the formation control algorithms to network systems including network localization, and analysis of social and complex networks.

Title: Regulating Mechanism of Additional Edges on the Synchronization Performance of Networked  Autonomous Surface Vehicle Fleets

Abstract: This study establishes a comprehensive framework for analyzing the influence of reverse edge structures within the topology of networked unmanned system groups, specifically focusing on their impact on synchronization performance. By proposing a method to evaluate the Laplacian spectrum of networks under topological perturbations, the study quantitatively reveals the effect of reverse edge structures on the dominant convergence rate in directed networks. The study further clarifies the mechanism by which these reverse edges could be used to regulate the information flow throughout the network. Based on this framework, the paper advances theoretical insights into critical scientific challenges, including the modeling of edge perturbation mechanisms, the necessary and sufficient conditions for reverse edges to affect synchronization in directed acyclic graphs, and the principles governing how additional topological structures influence network behavior. These theoretical advancements have practical applications, as they have been implemented in tasks involving the cooperative detection, denial, encirclement, and adversarial game strategies of heterogeneous autonomous surface vehicles (ASV) fleets.

Title: Distributed Resilient Cooperative Control and Decision-Making: Theoretical Advances and Practical Applications

Abstract: In recent years, with the rapid development of sensing, communication, and control technologies, distributed cooperative control and decision-making techniques for multi-agent systems have shown great potential for application. However, due to the openness and complexity of multi-agent systems, these techniques often face significant threats from cyber-physical attacks (such as malicious nodes, DoS attacks, etc.) in practical applications, posing severe challenges to their implementation. To address these challenges, this report systematically explores the latest theoretical advancements and practical applications of distributed resilient cooperative control and decision-making. Firstly, it introduces a theoretical framework for distributed resilient cooperative control, analyzing the impact of attacks on system stability and cooperative task performance. It also proposes resilient control strategies tailored to different types of attacks (compensable and non-compensable), which enhance the system's resistance to interference and robustness. These theoretical results are then applied to autonomous path planning and secure formation control in swarms of unmanned vehicles and boats. Secondly, the report delves into the theory and methods of distributed resilient decision-making, presenting a fast distributed optimal decision-making technique under communication attacks. It further analyzes the influence of node dynamics on optimal decision-making and proposes an integrated decision-control approach based on embodied intelligence, demonstrating its potential applications in economic dispatch of intelligent power sources and cooperative sensing and positioning in unmanned boat swarms. Finally, the report looks forward to future research directions and development trends in resilient cooperative control and decision-making.

In this talk, we present numerous examples of underactuated systems across various domains, including biological systems. We provide new insights and advances in the control design and analysis of a wide range of underactuated robotic systems that we have extensively studied over the past two decades. This includes rigid multi-degree-of-freedom systems with an underactuation degree of two, as well as soft robots. We introduce novel concepts, key features, and advanced design techniques, with particular focus on swing-up control, strong structural controllability, strong structural observability, and strong stabilizability. These innovations are critical for understanding and improving the control and stability of underactuated robotic systems. We validate our theoretical findings through experimental results on various systems. Finally, we explore promising future research directions to further push the boundaries of underactuated robotic system design and analysis.

Title: Optical Metasurface Technology Principles for Visual Perception in Unmanned Systems

Abstract: Optical payloads are widely used in small and micro unmanned systems. Optical metasurfaces, due to their precise control of light waves at the sub-wavelength scale, have shown great potential in the field of intelligent visual perception in recent years. This report starts with the concept of metasurfaces and delves into their optical control principles and key mechanisms. Combined with visual perception applications, it introduces in detail the application of metasurfaces in phase control (such as aberration-free imaging, zoom imaging, phase-coded imaging), spectral control (such as achromatic imaging, hyperspectral imaging), polarization control (such as polarization multiplexing, polarization routing), compact depth/wide-angle imaging, and composite modulation perception. It also explores computational imaging based on metasurfaces, breaking through the limitations of traditional imaging components, and enhancing the multi-dimensional perception capabilities of imaging systems. While summarizing the challenges of metasurface technology in practical applications, it also looks forward to its development prospects and potential innovative directions in the future field of intelligent perception.

题目:无人机/船协同系统的可信位姿估计理论与验证

摘要:无人机和无人船的协同在众多民用和国防领域有着重要且广泛的应用。无人机/船协同系统高性能安全工作的核心保障是无人机具备自主降落到无人船上的能力,而这个能力实现的基础是协同系统拥有强大精准的无人机/船相对位姿测量能力。由于传统模型驱动的Kalman滤波理论无法在复杂环境下为协同系统提供一个可靠的位姿估计输出,其关键是滤波模型与实际协同系统运动模型之间存在无法克服的失配性,从而导致传统状态估计理论的性能度量机制被破坏,输出结果的可用性受到质疑。姿态估计可信度评价问题的提出能够很好的解决上述模型失配而导致的滤波输出结果应用的不可靠问题,从而建立了一种全新的、可信度理论驱动的新型自适应估计器设计方法。本报告以可信度Kalman滤波理论为核心逻辑框架,以协同位姿观测系统的非高斯干扰识别为出发点,开展非线性非高斯可信容积Kalman滤波融合方法研究以及在无人机/船协同降落中的实验验证研究,应用高斯和框架、最大相关熵滤波、特征函数滤波、混合高斯核理论、协方差匹配、宽度学习系统等的深入联合来构建一套面向协同系统高性能位姿估计算法体系,可为无人机/船协同系统的高效稳定安全的运行提供快速、精准和稳定的位姿估计输出。

Title: Theory and Verification of Trusted Pose Estimation for Unmanned Aircraft/Ship Collaborative Systems

Abstract: The collaboration between drones and unmanned ships has significant and widespread applications in various civil and defense fields. The core guarantee for the high-performance and safe operation of UAV/ship collaborative systems is the drone's ability to autonomously land on the unmanned ship. This capability relies on the strong and precise relative pose measurement capability of the collaborative system between the drone and the ship. Traditional model-driven Kalman filtering theory fails to provide reliable pose estimation outputs for collaborative systems in complex environments. The key issue is the irreconcilable mismatch between the filtering model and the actual motion model of the collaborative system, which undermines the performance measurement mechanism of conventional state estimation theories, thereby raising doubts about the usability of the output results. The proposal of a reliability assessment for pose estimation effectively addresses the reliability issues in filtering outputs caused by model mismatches. This leads to the establishment of a novel design approach for adaptive estimators driven by credibility theory. This report focuses on the credibility Kalman filtering theory as the core logical framework, starting from the identification of non-Gaussian disturbances in collaborative pose observation systems. It explores nonlinear non-Gaussian credible volume Kalman filtering fusion methods and experimental validation in UAV/ship collaborative landing scenarios. By deeply integrating Gaussian frameworks, maximum entropy filtering, characteristic function filtering, mixed Gaussian kernel theory, covariance matching, and wide learning systems, a high-performance pose estimation algorithm system tailored for collaborative systems is constructed. This approach can provide rapid, precise, and stable pose estimation outputs for the efficient, stable, and safe operation of UAV/ship collaborative systems.
