A tutorial on the structure of distributed optimization algorithms

B Van Scoy, L Lessard - 2023 62nd IEEE Conference on …, 2023 - ieeexplore.ieee.org
We consider the distributed optimization problem for a multi-agent system. Here, multiple
agents cooperatively optimize an objective by sharing information through a communication …

Self-Healing Distributed Swarm Formation Control Using Image Moments

CL Liu, ILD Ridgley, ML Elwin… - IEEE Robotics and …, 2024 - ieeexplore.ieee.org
Human-swarm interaction is facilitated by a low-dimensional encoding of the swarm
formation, independent of the (possibly large) number of robots. We propose using image …

Self-Healing First-Order Distributed Optimization with Packet Loss

ILD Ridgley, RA Freeman, KM Lynch - arXiv preprint arXiv:2308.07246, 2023 - arxiv.org
We describe SH-SVL, a parameterized family of first-order distributed optimization
algorithms that enable a network of agents to collaboratively calculate a decision variable …

Proximal Methods for Self-Healing and Exact Distributed Convex Optimization Extended abstract

RA Freeman - 2022 58th Annual Allerton Conference on …, 2022 - ieeexplore.ieee.org
Distributed convex optimization algorithms employ a variety of methods for achieving exact
convergence to the global optimal value (modulo numerical precision): some use time …

Distributed Optimization in Open Networks With Faults

ILD Ridgley - 2023 - search.proquest.com
The field of distributed optimization algorithms is wide and growing, and new techniques for
categorizing and analyzing existing algorithms are continually being developed. In this …

PrimeTime: A Finite-Time Consensus Protocol for Open Networks

HW Abrahamson, E Wei - 2023 62nd IEEE Conference on …, 2023 - ieeexplore.ieee.org
In distributed problems where consensus between agents is required but average
consensus is not desired, it can be necessary for each agent to know not only the data of …
