Routing strategies for traffics and vehicles have been historically studied. However, in the absence of considering drivers preferences, current route planning algorithms are developed under ideal situations where all drivers are expected to behave rationally and properly. Especially, for jumbled urban road networks, drivers actual routing strategies deteriorated to a series of empirical and selfish decisions that result in congestion. Self-evidently, if minimum mobility can be kept, traffic congestion is avoidable by traffic load dispersing. In this paper, we establish a novel dynamic routing method catering drivers preferences and retaining maximum traffic mobility simultaneously through multi-agent systems (MAS). Modeling human-drivers behavior through agents dynamics, MAS can analyze the global behavior of the entire traffic flow. Therefore, regarding agents as particles in smoothed particles hydrodynamics (SPH), we can enforce the traffic flow to behave like a real flow. Thereby, with the characteristic of distributing itself uniformly in road networks, our dynamic routing method realizes traffic load balancing without violating the individual time-saving motivation. Moreover, as a discrete control mechanism, our method is robust to chaos meaning drivers disobedience can be tolerated. As controlled by SPH based density, the only intelligent transportation system (ITS) we require is the location-based service (LBS). A mathematical proof is accomplished to scrutinize the stability of the proposed control law. Also, multiple testing cases are built to verify the effectiveness of the proposed dynamic routing algorithm.

Within a robot autonomy stack, the planner and controller are typically designed separately, and serve different purposes. As such, there is often a diffusion of responsibilities when it comes to ensuring safety for the robot. We propose that a plann
er and controller should share the same interpretation of safety but apply this knowledge in a different yet complementary way. To achieve this, we use Hamilton-Jacobi (HJ) reachability theory at the planning level to provide the robot planner with the foresight to avoid entering regions with possible inevitable collision. However, this alone does not guarantee safety. In conjunction with this HJ reachability-infused planner, we propose a minimally-interventional multi-agent safety-preserving controller also derived via HJ-reachability theory. The safety controller maintains safety for the robot without unduly impacting planner performance. We demonstrate the benefits of our proposed approach in a multi-agent highway scenario where a robot car is rewarded to navigate through traffic as fast as possible, and we show that our approach provides strong safety assurances yet achieves the highest performance compared to other safety controllers.
This paper investigates the online motion coordination problem for a group of mobile robots moving in a shared workspace, each of which is assigned a linear temporal logic specification. Based on the realistic assumptions that each robot is subject t
o both state and input constraints and can have only local view and local information, a fully distributed multi-robot motion coordination strategy is proposed. For each robot, the motion coordination strategy consists of three layers. An offline layer pre-computes the braking area for each region in the workspace, the controlled transition system, and a so-called potential function. An initialization layer outputs an initially safely satisfying trajectory. An online coordination layer resolves conflicts when one occurs. The online coordination layer is further decomposed into three steps. Firstly, a conflict detection algorithm is implemented, which detects conflicts with neighboring robots. Whenever conflicts are detected, a rule is designed to assign dynamically a planning order to each pair of neighboring robots. Finally, a sampling-based algorithm is designed to generate local collision-free trajectories for the robot which at the same time guarantees the feasibility of the specification. Safety is proven to be guaranteed for all robots at any time. The effectiveness and the computational tractability of the resulting solution is verified numerically by two case studies.
In this paper we propose a novel consensus protocol for discrete-time multi-agent systems (MAS), which solves the dynamic consensus problem on the max value, i.e., the dynamic max-consensus problem. In the dynamic max-consensus problem to each agent
is fed a an exogenous reference signal, the objective of each agent is to estimate the instantaneous and time-varying value of the maximum among the signals fed to the network, by exploiting only local and anonymous interactions among the agents. The absolute and relative tracking error of the proposed distributed control protocol is theoretically characterized and is shown to be bounded and by tuning its parameters it is possible to trade-off convergence time for steady-state error. The dynamic Max-consensus algorithm is then applied to solve the distributed size estimation problem in a dynamic setting where the size of the network is time-varying during the execution of the estimation algorithm. Numerical simulations are provided to corroborate the theoretical analysis.
This paper deals with the H2 suboptimal output synchronization problem for heterogeneous linear multi-agent systems. Given a multi-agent system with possibly distinct agents and an associated H2 cost functional, the aim is to design output feedback b
ased protocols that guarantee the associated cost to be smaller than a given upper bound while the controlled network achieves output synchronization. A design method is provided to compute such protocols. For each agent, the computation of its two local control gains involves two Riccati inequalities, each of dimension equal to the state space dimension of the agent. A simulation example is provided to illustrate the performance of the proposed protocols.

w and local information, a fully distributed multi-robot motion coordination strategy is proposed. Building on top of a cell decomposition, a conflict detection algorithm is presented first. Then, a rule is proposed to assign dynamically a planning order to each pair of neighboring robots, which is deadlock-free. Finally, a two-step motion planning process that combines fixed-path planning and trajectory planning is designed. The effectiveness of the resulting solution is verified by a simulation example.
