Safe consensus control of cooperative-competitive multi-agent systems via differential privacy

Jiayue Ma, Jiangping Hu (2022)

Kybernetika

This paper investigates a safe consensus problem for cooperative-competitive multi-agent systems using a differential privacy (DP) approach. Considering that the agents simultaneously interact cooperatively and competitively, we propose a novel DP bipartite consensus algorithm, which guarantees that the DP strategy only works on competitive pairs of agents. We then prove that the proposed algorithm can achieve the mean square bipartite consensus and ( p , r ) -accuracy. Furthermore, a differential privacy...

Scaling of Stochasticity in Dengue Hemorrhagic Fever Epidemics

M. Aguiar, B.W. Kooi, J. Martins, N. Stollenwerk (2012)

Mathematical Modelling of Natural Phenomena

In this paper we analyze the stochastic version of a minimalistic multi-strain model, which captures essential differences between primary and secondary infections in dengue fever epidemiology, and investigate the interplay between stochasticity, seasonality and import. The introduction of stochasticity is needed to explain the fluctuations observed in some of the available data sets, revealing a scenario where noise and complex deterministic skeleton...

Selected multicriteria shortest path problems: an analysis of complexity, models and adaptation of standard algorithms

Zbigniew Tarapata (2007)

International Journal of Applied Mathematics and Computer Science

The paper presents selected multicriteria (multiobjective) approaches to shortest path problems. A classification of multi-objective shortest path (MOSP) problems is given. Different models of MOSP problems are discussed in detail. Methods of solving the formulated optimization problems are presented. An analysis of the complexity of the presented methods and ways of adapting of classical algorithms for solving multiobjective shortest path problems are described. A comparison of the effectiveness...

Signed directed graph based modeling and its validation from process knowledge and process data

Fan Yang, Sirish L. Shah, Deyun Xiao (2012)

International Journal of Applied Mathematics and Computer Science

This paper is concerned with the fusion of information from process data and process connectivity and its subsequent use in fault diagnosis and process hazard assessment. The Signed Directed Graph (SDG), as a graphical model for capturing process topology and connectivity to show the causal relationships between process variables by material and information paths, has been widely used in root cause and hazard propagation analysis. An SDG is usually built based on process knowledge as described by...

Sliding mode differentiator via improved adaptive notch filter

Juan Wang, Hehong Zhang, Yuanlong Yu, Zhihong Dan, Gaoxi Xiao, Qiuming Gu, Chao Zhai (2022)

Kybernetika

To tackle the difficulty in tuning the parameters of sliding mode differentiator (SMD), an improved adaptive notch filter based real-time parameter tuning scheme (denoted as ANF-SMD) is presented. Specifically, the integral feedback of the system output errors is introduced in constructing the cost function for the adaptive notch filter so as to estimate the real-time amplitude and frequency of given inputs. Then, upon the deterministic formula between the parameters of the SMD and the input signals,...

Soft variable structure control in time-delay systems with saturating input

Przemysław Ignaciuk (2021)

Kybernetika

In order to achieve a short regulation cycle, time-optimal control has been considered in the past. However, the sensitivity to errors and uncertainties, and implementation difficulties in the practical systems, have incited other research directions to meet this objective. In this paper, soft Variable Structure Control (VSC) is analyzed from the perspective of linear time-delay systems with input constraint. The desired fast convergence under a smoothly varying control signal is obtained. The stability...

Special issue on decentralized control of large scale complex systems

Lubomír Bakule (2009)

Kybernetika

This special issue provides information on current and future research directions in the emerging field of Decentralized Control of Large Scale Complex Systems. There is generally adopted view that a dynamic system is large scale complex whenever it is necessary to partition its analysis or synthesis problem to manageable subproblems. Its fundamental characteristics in modeling and control are high dimensionality, uncertainty, information structure constraints, and delays. Theory of large scale...

Spreadability, Vulnerability and Protector Control

A. Bernoussi (2010)

Mathematical Modelling of Natural Phenomena

In this work, we present some concepts recently introduced in the analysis and control of distributed parameter systems: Spreadability, vulnerability and protector control. These concepts permit to describe many biogeographical phenomena, as those of pollution, desertification or epidemics, which are characterized by a spatio-temporal evolution

Statistical estimation of the dynamics of watershed dams

Zbisław Tabor (2009)

International Journal of Applied Mathematics and Computer Science

In the present study the notion of watershed contour dynamics, defined within the framework of mathematical morphology, is examined. It is shown that the dynamics are a direct measure of the “sharpness” of transition between neighboring watershed basins. The expressions for the expected value and the statistical error of the estimation of contour dynamics are derived in the presence of noise, based on extreme value theory. The sensitivity of contour dynamics to noise is studied. A statistical approach...

Štatistické modelovanie javu El Niño - Južná oscilácia v klimatológii

Nikola Jajcay, Milan Paluš (2017)

Pokroky matematiky, fyziky a astronomie

Pri modelovaní v klimatológii a meteorológii rozlišujeme dva základné druhy modelov — dynamické a štatistické. Dynamické modely majú fyzikálny základ, ktorý pozostáva z diskretizovaných diferenciálnych rovníc a súčasného stavu ako počiatočnej podmienky a následne modelujú stav systému integrovaním týchto rovníc v čase. Štatistické modely sú už v základe odlišné: ich fungovanie sa nezakladá na fyzikálnych mechanizmoch tvoriacich dynamiku modelovaného systému, ale sú odvodené z analýzy chodu počasia...
