The Impact of Discrimination on the Spread of Infectious Diseases in Complex Networks

This paper proposes a novel model combining an epidemic dynamics and an opinion dynamics to investigate the impact of epidemic-related opinion dynamics on the spreading of infectious diseases in complex networks. We assume that, the outcomes of opinion dynamics on the behavior of asymptomatically infected individuals who have known their infected state, could not only reduce their transmission probabilities, but also could increase their transmission probabilities. This assumption has rarely been considered for modeling the interactions among epidemic dynamics, opinion dynamics and the exchange of human behaviors. We find that when the epidemic-related opinion dynamics exist, a higher randomness of individuals will simultaneously lead to a higher prevalence of infectious diseases and a lower social discrimination perceived by infected individuals. Furthermore, if the positive external global impact exceeds a certain critical value, there is an abrupt disappearance of infection owing to the contribution of opinion dynamics. Based on our results, some suggestions are given to reduce the spreading of epidemic diseases.     

Guaranteed‐cost consensus for multiagent networks with Lipschitz nonlinear dynamics and switching topologies

Guaranteed‐cost consensus for high‐order nonlinear multiagent networks with switching topologies is investigated. By constructing a time‐varying nonsingular matrix with a specific structure, the whole dynamics of multiagent networks is decomposed into the consensus and disagreement parts with nonlinear terms, which is the key challenge to be dealt with. An explicit expression of the consensus dynamics, which contains the nonlinear term, is given and its initial state is determined. Furthermore, by the structure property of the time‐varying nonsingular transformation matrix and the Lipschitz condition, the impacts of the nonlinear term on the disagreement dynamics are linearized, and the gain matrix of the consensus protocol is determined on the basis of the Riccati equation. Moreover, an approach to minimize the guaranteed cost is given in terms of linear matrix inequalities. Finally, the numerical simulation is shown to demonstrate the effectiveness of theoretical results.     

Delay-dependent state estimation for delayed neural networks

In this letter, the delay-dependent state estimation problem for neural networks with time-varying delay is investigated. A delay-dependent criterion is established to estimate the neuron states through available output measurements such that the dynamics of the estimation error is globally exponentially stable. The proposed method is based on the free-weighting matrix approach and is applicable to the case that the derivative of a time-varying delay takes any value. An algorithm is presented to compute the state estimator. Finally, a numerical example is given to demonstrate the effectiveness of this approach and the improvement over existing ones.     

Pinning weighted complex networks with heterogeneous delays by a small number of feedback controllers

Weighted complex dynamical networks with heterogeneous delays in both continuous-time and discrete-time domains are controlled by applying local feedback injections to a small fraction of network nodes. Some generic stability criteria ensuring delay-independent stability are derived for such controlled networks in terms of linear matrix inequalities （LMIs）, which guarantee that by placing a small number of feedback controllers on some nodes the whole network can be pinned to some desired homogenous states. In some particular cases, a single controller can achieve the control objective. It is found that stabilization of such pinned networks is completely determined by the dynamics of the individual uncoupled node, the overall coupling strength, the inner-coupling matrix, and the smallest eigenvalue of the coupling and control matrix. Numerical simulations of a weighted network composing of a 3-dimensional nonlinear system are finally given for illustration and verification.     

Event-triggered robust distributed state estimation for sensor networks with state-dependent noises

This paper is concerned with the event-triggered distributed state estimation problem for a class of uncertain stochastic systems with state-dependent noises and randomly occurring uncertainties over sensor networks. An event-triggered communication scheme is proposed in order to determine whether the measurements on each sensor should be transmitted to the estimators or not. The norm-bounded uncertainty enters into the system in a random way. Through available output measurements from not only the individual sensor but also its neighbouring sensors, a sufficient condition is established for the desired distributed estimator to ensure that the estimation error dynamics are exponentially mean-square stable. These conditions are characterized in terms of the feasibility of a set of linear matrix inequalities, and then the explicit expression is given for the distributed estimator gains. Finally, a simulation example is provided to show the effectiveness of the proposed event-triggered distributed state estimation scheme.

Synchronization of Complex Dynamical Networks with Dynamical Behavior Links

In this paper, synchronization of a complex dynamical network (CDN) is investigated while the coupling connections of the network exhibit dynamic behavior. As it is shown in simulations, the dynamic links can cause synchronization losing in the network whereas the links in many real‐world CDNs have dynamic behavior. To analyzing the effect of these links, two different CDN models are considered: without time delays and with delays in the coupling connections. By means of Lyapunov(‐Krasovskii) theory, stability analysis of the error dynamics between the nodes of these CDNs and an introduced individual node is investigated which yields some conditions in the form of linear matrix inequalities (LMIs). These LMIs can be solved easily by various existing LMI solvers. Moreover, the gain matrices of state feedback controllers will be obtained by solving the LMIs. In the end, illustrative numerical examples are given to specify the effectiveness of the proposed method.     

Potential Fields for Maintaining Connectivity of Mobile Networks

The control of mobile networks of multiple agents raises fundamental and novel problems in controlling the structure of the resulting dynamic graphs. In this paper, we consider the problem of controlling a network of agents so that the resulting motion always preserves the connectivity property of the network. In particular, the connectivity condition is translated to differentiable constraints on individual agent motion by considering the dynamics of the Laplacian matrix and its spectral properties. Artificial potential fields are then used to drive the agents to configurations away from the undesired space of disconnected networks while avoiding collisions with each other. We conclude by illustrating a class of interesting problems that can be achieved while preserving connectivity constraints.

Switching Rule Design for Switched Dynamic Systems With Affine Vector Fields

In this paper, we propose a method for designing switching rules that drive the state of the switched dynamic system to a desired equilibrium point. The method deals with the class of switched systems where each mode of operation is represented by a dynamical system with an affine vector field. The results are given in terms of linear matrix inequalities and they guarantee global asymptotic stability of the tracking error dynamics. Switching rules based on complete and partial state measurements are proposed. The case of uncertain polytopic systems is also considered and a numerical example illustrates the approach.

Distributed Control for Signed Networks of Nonlinear Agents

This paper copes with distributed control problems for signed networks that consist of a group of nonlinear agents. A distributed control algorithm is designed by using the nearest neighbor rule. For Lipschitz-type nonlinear dynamics, this algorithm guarantees structurally balanced signed networks to achieve bipartite consensus and structurally unbalanced signed networks to reach state stability, respectively. When bounded nonlinear dynamics are considered, all agents exponentially converge to a definite bound within a finite time, regardless of whether the signed networks are structurally balanced or structurally unbalanced. A Lyapunov approach is simultaneously exploited to carry out the dynamic behaviors analysis of signed networks. Four examples are provided to demonstrate the validity of the developed theoretical results.     

Iterative Consensus for a Class of Second-order Multi-agent Systems

In this paper, the problem of leader-following consensus for a class of multi-agent systems with double integrator dynamics is investigated based on an iterative learning approach. Consensus errors of individual agents are considered as the anticipation in time, based on which a distributed iterative learning protocol is proposed for the undirected networks with fixed topology to make the followers track the leader in finite time. The dynamic of the leader is assumed to be time-varying and the state information is available to only a portion of the followers. The sufficient condition for solving the consensus problem of the multi-agent system is obtained. A simulation example is provided to demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed method.
