Speech Title: Prescribed-Time Control by Periodic Delayed Feedback

Abstract:Prescribed-time control has been a hot topic in recent years. Existing prescribed-time control methods are mainly based on time-varying high-gain feedback (THF). However, since an infinite gain is practically impossible to achieve, such kind of controllers are not well-defined at and after the prescribed settling time. Recently, another control scheme capable of achieving prescribed-time stabilization, namely, a periodic delayed feedback (PDF) scheme, was proposed. An appealing feature of the PDF is that the time-varying controller gain is bounded and can be chosen continuous, continually differentiable and even smooth, thereby avoiding the inherent drawbacks of THF. Over the past three years, there have been many interesting and significant developments in the PDF scheme, achieving prescribed-time stabilization of linear delay systems, strict feedback systems and single input normal nonlinear systems. As applications of the proposed methods, the prescribed-time control problems of spacecraft rendezvous control systems, hypersonic vehicle systems and manipulator systems have been investigated. Numerical simulations show the effectiveness of the proposed methods.

Speech Title: Robust optimal control of Bi-objective LQ system with noisy observation

Abstract:This talk is concerned with a kind of partially observable LQ control problem, where the coefficients of cost functional are uncertain representing different market conditions. By virtue of backward separation technique, stochastic maximum principle, as well as filtering method, a feedback form of candidate optimal control is designed. Moreover, through some delicate analysis, the existence of maximal reference probability is certified. Finally, a numerical simulation is presented to authenticate the theoretical results.

Speech Title: Event-Triggered Tracking Control for Networked Random Switched System under Constrained Environments

Abstract: With the continuous advancement of computer technology and network communication technology, networked systems have garnered sustained attention from scholars due to their advantages. In practical control scenarios, networked systems are often constrained by various factors. This report focuses on the tracking control problem of networked random switched systems under complex constraint environments such as control execution constraints, network security limitations, system mode transmission restrictions, and communication resource scarcity. Based on the hidden (semi-) Markov model and memory-based event-triggered mechanism, an asynchronous tracking controller is designed to guarantee the stochastic stability and extended dissipative performance of tracking error system, and effectively reduce the transmission of redundant data.

Speech Title: Secure Platooning Control of Automated Vehicles

Abstract: Secure platooning control plays an important role in enhancing the cooperative driving safety of automated vehicles subject to various security vulnerabilities. This talk focuses on the distributed secure control issue of automated vehicles under replay attacks or privacy-preserving. A proportional integral observer (PIO) with predetermined forgetting parameters is first constructed to acquire the dynamical information of vehicles. Considering replay attacks, a time-varying parameter and two positive scalars are employed to describe the temporal behavior of replay attacks. In light of such a scheme and the common properties of Laplace matrices, the closed-loop system with PIO-based controllers is transformed into a switched and time-delayed one. For privacy-preserving, sampled-data-based dynamic encryption and decryption schemes, featuring a dynamic private key, are developed such that the encrypted vehicle-to-vehicle data can be kept private to each platoon vehicle. Furthermore, some sufficient conditions are derived to achieve the desired platooning performance by the view of the Lyapunov stability theory. The controller gains are analytically determined by resorting to the solution of certain matrix inequalities only dependent on maximum and minimum eigenvalues of communication topologies. Finally, simulation examples are provided to illustrate the effectiveness of the proposed control strategy.

SpeechTitle: Distributed estimation in networked stochastic systems. Some recent advances and  perspectives

Distributed estimation in sensor networks plays a fundamental role in modern system  design, enabling efficient monitoring and control across various applications, from  target tracking to industrial automation. Unlike centralized approaches, where all sensor  data are transmitted to a central unit for processing, distributed estimation allows each  sensor node to locally process its information while exchanging data only with  neighbouring nodes according to the network topology. This decentralized strategy  reduces communication overhead and minimizes energy consumption, something  essential in resource-constrained networked systems. In this keynote, we will first provide an overview of distributed estimation, emphasizing  its theoretical and practical significance while highlighting recent advancements in the  field. We will then discuss key complexities arising in real-world networked systems,  focusing on four major challenges: random parameter variations, measurement  quantization, time-correlated noise, and mixed random attacks. Recent research efforts  addressing these challenges will be presented, followed by a discussion on future  research directions and open problems. Finally, some key references will be provided to  support further studies in this area.
