This monograph presents a new framework for learning-based control synthesis of
continuous-time dynamical systems with unknown dynamics. The new design paradigm …

Recently, multiple unmanned vehicles have attracted a great deal of attention as viable
solutions to a wide variety of civilian and military applications. Among many topics in the …

We present a survey of formation control of multi-agent systems. Focusing on the sensing
capability and the interaction topology of agents, we categorize the existing results into …

Within the context of multiple mobile, and networked robot systems, this chapter explores the
current state of the art. After a brief introduction, we first examine architectures for multirobot …

A novel delay-based spacing policy for the control of vehicle platoons is introduced together
with a notion of disturbance string stability. The delay-based spacing policy specifies the …

We study optimal multirobot path planning on graphs (MPP) over four minimization
objectives: the makespan (last arrival time), the maximum (single-robot traveled) distance …

“I don't want to achieve immortality through my work... I want to achieve it through not dying.”—
Woody Allen The emergence of (relatively) cheap sensing and actuation nodes, capable of …

This paper provides a theoretical framework for analysis of consensus algorithms for multi-
agent networked systems with an emphasis on the role of directed information flow …

Recent advances in miniaturizing of computing, communication, sensing, and actuation
have made it feasible to envision large numbers of autonomous vehicles (air, ground, and …

This self-contained introduction to the distributed control of robotic networks offers a
distinctive blend of computer science and control theory. The book presents a broad set of …
