Topology inference for networked dynamical systems (NDSs) plays a crucial role in many areas. Knowledge of the system topology can aid in detecting anomalies, spotting trends, predicting future behavior and so on. Different from the majority of pioneering works, this paper investigates the principles and performances of topology inference from the perspective of node causality and correlation. Specifically, we advocate a comprehensive analysis framework to unveil the mutual relationship, convergence and accuracy of the proposed methods and other benchmark methods, i.e., the Granger and ordinary least square (OLS) estimators. Our method allows for unknown observation noises, both asymptotic and marginal stabilities for NDSs, while encompasses a correlation-based modification design to alleviate performance degradation in small observation scale. To explicitly demonstrate the inference performance of the estimators, we leverage the concentration measure in Gaussian space, and derive the non-asymptotic rates of the inference errors for linear time-invariant (LTI) cases. Considering when the observations are not sufficient to support the estimators, we provide an excitation-based method to infer the one-hop and multi-hop neighbors with probability guarantees. Furthermore, we point out the theoretical results can be extended to switching topologies and nonlinear dynamics cases. Extensive simulations highlight the outperformance of the proposed method.

In this paper, we consider the optimal design of networked estimators to minimize the communication/measurement cost under the networked observability constraint. This problem is known as the minimum-cost networked estimation problem, which is genera
lly claimed to be NP-hard. The main contribution of this work is to provide a polynomial-order solution for this problem under the constraint that the underlying dynamical system is self-damped. Using structural analysis, we subdivide the main problem into two NP-hard subproblems known as (i) optimal sensor selection, and (ii) minimum-cost communication network. For self-damped dynamical systems, we provide a polynomial-order solution for subproblem (i). Further, we show that the subproblem (ii) is of polynomial-order complexity if the links in the communication network are bidirectional. We provide an illustrative example to explain the methodologies.
This paper considers the problem of simultaneous sensor fault detection, isolation, and networked estimation of linear full-rank dynamical systems. The proposed networked estimation is a variant of single time-scale protocol and is based on (i) conse
nsus on textit{a-priori} estimates and (ii) measurement innovation. The necessary connectivity condition on the sensor network and stabilizing block-diagonal gain matrix is derived based on our previous works. Considering additive faults in the presence of system and measurement noise, the estimation error at sensors is derived and proper residuals are defined for fault detection. Unlike many works in the literature, no simplifying upper-bound condition on the noise is considered and we assume Gaussian system/measurement noise. A probabilistic threshold is then defined for fault detection based on the estimation error covariance norm. Finally, a graph-theoretic sensor replacement scenario is proposed to recover possible loss of networked observability due to removing the faulty sensor. We examine the proposed fault detection and isolation scheme on an illustrative academic example to verify the results and make a comparison study with related literature.
Graph-based representations play a key role in machine learning. The fundamental step in these representations is the association of a graph structure to a dataset. In this paper, we propose a method that aims at finding a block sparse representation
of the graph signal leading to a modular graph whose Laplacian matrix admits the found dictionary as its eigenvectors. The role of sparsity here is to induce a band-limited representation or, equivalently, a modular structure of the graph. The proposed strategy is composed of two optimization steps: i) learning an orthonormal sparsifying transform from the data; ii) recovering the Laplacian, and then topology, from the transform. The first step is achieved through an iterative algorithm whose alternating intermediate solutions are expressed in closed form. The second step recovers the Laplacian matrix from the sparsifying transform through a convex optimization method. Numerical results corroborate the effectiveness of the proposed methods over both synthetic data and real brain data, used for inferring the brain functionality network through experiments conducted over patients affected by epilepsy.
Topology inference is a crucial problem for cooperative control in multi-agent systems. Different from most prior works, this paper is dedicated to inferring the directed network topology from the observations that consist of a single, noisy and fini
te time-series system trajectory, where the cooperation dynamics is stimulated with the initial network state and the unmeasurable latent input. The unmeasurable latent input refers to intrinsic system signal and extrinsic environment interference. Considering the time-invariant/varying nature of the input, we propose two-layer optimization-based and iterative estimation based topology inference algorithms (TO-TIA and IE-TIA), respectively. TO-TIA allows us to capture the separability of global agent state and eliminates the unknown influence of time-invariant input on system dynamics. IE-TIA further exploits the identifiability and estimability of more general time-varying input and provides an asymptotic solution with desired convergence properties, with higher computation cost compared with TO-TIA. Our novel algorithms relax the dependence of observation scale and leverage the empirical risk reformulation to improve the inference accuracy in terms of the topology structure and edge weight. Comprehensive theoretical analysis and simulations for various topologies are provided to illustrate the inference feasibility and the performance of the proposed algorithms.
We present our vision for a departure from the established way of architecting and assessing communication networks, by incorporating the semantics of information for communications and control in networked systems. We define semantics of information
, not as the meaning of the messages, but as their significance, possibly within a real time constraint, relative to the purpose of the data exchange. We argue that research efforts must focus on laying the theoretical foundations of a redesign of the entire process of information generation, transmission and usage in unison by developing: advanced semantic metrics for communications and control systems; an optimal sampling theory combining signal sparsity and semantics, for real-time prediction, reconstruction and control under communication constraints and delays; semantic compressed sensing techniques for decision making and inference directly in the compressed domain; semantic-aware data generation, channel coding, feedback, multiple and random access schemes that reduce the volume of data and the energy consumption, increasing the number of supportable devices.
