We derive the upper and lower bounds on the coverage of a 2-D deployment of static sensors. We use these bounds in constructing a method of estimating the coverage of deployment by assuming that there are only pairwise intersections between the disks r…
This article focuses on the distributed cooperative compound tracking issue of the vehicular platoon. First, a definition, called compound tracking control, is proposed, which means that the practical finite-time stability and asymptotical convergence …
This article proposes a finite-time adaptive containment control scheme for a class of uncertain nonlinear multiagent systems subject to mismatched disturbances and actuator failures. The dynamic surface control technique and adding a power integrator …
Deep learning technology has been widely used in fault diagnosis for chemical processes. However, most deep learning technologies currently adopted only use a single network stack or a certain network stack with multilayer perceptron (MLP) behind it. C…
In this article, we generalize the results on self-synchronization of Lur’e networks diffusively interconnected through dynamic relative output-feedback from the undirected graph case in Zhang et al. 2016 to the general directed graph case. A li…
This work investigates the tracking consensus problem of multiagent systems over directed networks, where the control gains follow certain volatile patterns. Some event-based consensus protocols are formulated so as to reduce the redundant execution of…
The existing studies for tracking consensus of multiagent systems (MASs) are all restricted to networks with only cooperative relationships among agents. Tracking consensus, however, requires beyond these traditional models due to the ubiquitous compet…
In this article, we analyze the projective synchronization of fractional-order neural networks with mixed time delays. By introducing an extended Halanay inequality that is applicable for the case of fractional differential equations with arbitrary ini…
Biomarkers, such as magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and electroencephalogram have been used to help diagnose autism spectrum disorder (ASD). However, the diagnosis needs the assist of specialized medical equipment in the hospital or laboratory. To dia…
This study focuses on an adaptive fault-tolerant boundary control (BC) for a flexible string (FS) in the presence of unknown external disturbances, dead zone, and actuator fault. To tackle these issues, by employing some transformations, a part of the …
