A distributed algorithm for average consensus on strongly connected weighted digraphs

A Priolo, A Gasparri, E Montijano, C Sagues - Automatica, 2014 - Elsevier
In this work we propose a distributed algorithm to solve the discrete-time average consensus
problem on strongly connected weighted digraphs (SCWDs). The key idea is to couple the …

Train-movement situation recognition for safety justification using moving-horizon TBM-based multisensor data fusion

Y Zhou, X Tao, Z Yu, H Fujita - Knowledge-Based Systems, 2019 - Elsevier
Train-movement situation recognition is used in safety analyses to discern whether trains
are running according to preset mechanisms. When a train deviates from the preset …

Feature-based map merging with dynamic consensus on information increments

R Aragues, C Sagues, Y Mezouar - Autonomous Robots, 2015 - Springer
We study the problem of feature-based map merging in robot networks. Along its operation,
each robot observes the environment and builds and maintains a local map …

Power and dependence relations in groups of agents

G Boella, L Sauro… - Proceedings. IEEE/WIC …, 2004 - ieeexplore.ieee.org
We present a formal model of multiagent systems to analyze the relations of power and
dependence underlying group behaviors such as cooperation. Inspired by the work of …
