Topological identification in networks of dynamical systems
The paper deals with the problem of reconstructing the tree-like topological structure of a network of linear dynamical systems. A distance function is defined in order to evaluat...

Structured semidefinite representation of some convex sets
Linear matrix Inequalities (LMIs) have had a major impact on control but formulating a problem as an LMI is an art. Recently there is the beginnings of a theory of which problems ...

Identifiability of piecewise constant conductivity and its stability
Abstract-- We study the identifiability (i.e. the unique identification) problems for 1-D heat conduction in a nonhomogeneous rod. The piecewise constant conductivity of the rod ca...

Distributed estimation and control for stochastically interacting robots
Abstract-- We introduce a distributed estimation algorithm for use by a collection of stochastically interacting agents. Each agent has both a discrete value and an estimate of the...
