Computing the maximal (robust) positive invari-ant (M(R)PI) set for linear dynamics and a polyhedral constraint set is well-known in the literature but, the effects and limitations of the different methods employed are not sufficiently clear, especially for high dimensional systems. In this paper we propose a systematic analysis of the existing techniques as well as the application of new ideas to accelerate the computation of the MPI set. This includes new stop conditions for the set recurrence that spans it. We analyze and compare these variations over a dynamical system whose dimension can be arbitrarily increased to draw conclusions about their relative strengths and weaknesses.

This paper considers risk-averse learning in convex games involving multiple agents that aim to minimize their individual risk of incurring significantly high costs. Specifically, the agents adopt the conditional value at risk (CVaR) as a risk measure with possibly different risk levels. To solve this problem, we propose a first-order risk-averse leaning algorithm, in which the CVaR gradient estimate depends on an estimate of the Value at Risk (VaR) value combined with the gradient of the stochastic cost function. Although estimation of the CVaR gradients using finitely many samples is generally biased, we show that the accumulated error of the CVaR gradient estimates is bounded with high probability. Moreover, assuming that the risk-averse game is strongly monotone, we show that the proposed algorithm converges to the risk-averse Nash equilibrium. We present numerical experiments on a Cournot game example to illustrate the performance of the proposed method.

The article discusses the theoretical foundations of the design of a single-channel ultrahigh frequency moisture meter with direct measurement of the moisture content of bulk materials. In accordance with the requirements of the methodology for selecting efficiency criteria, it is necessary to develop structural diagrams of measuring devices. For these purposes, the standard deviation of the random error is determined, characterizing the accuracy. It includes the main components: sensitivity error, zero error and additive component. Mathematical models of structures are constructed and the standard deviation of random errors, which are caused by certain parameters and additive fluctuations, is calculated. A single-parameter ultrahigh-frequency method for determining the moisture content is proposed. This method provides high accuracy of a single-channel ultrahigh frequency moisture meter with direct measurement of the moisture content of bulk materials. The measuring device can be used in the agricultural industry, where humidity is one of the important parameters, starting with harvesting and ending with the release of finished products.

Box structures are widely used in mechanical engineering, instrumentation, construction and in many branches of human activity. Such structures play a special role in transport engineering, particularly in the automotive industry. Often, the box structure in addition to the force impact, can experience loads of wave influence nature. For reliable operation of a box structure, as well as for the assessment of strength and stiffness, it is necessary to know the dynamic characteristics of the system, in particular, to be able to determine the forms of transverse vibrations under different types of impacts at different moments of time.

This paper proposes a semi-Markov model of telecommunication network (TCN). The variant of dynamic traffic adaptive control of queuing system as a special case of TCN is considered. The main purpose of control is to minimize the average cost per unit of time to service the incoming flow of information (packets). This takes into account the different bandwidth of the channels, the processing speed of information in the channel and the information capacity of the buffers. The approach to the organization of dynamic control taking into account noise immunity (information reliability) and information security is discussed.

This paper proposes a method to navigate a mobile robot by estimating its state over a number of distributed sensor networks (DSNs) such that it can successively accomplish a sequence of tasks, i.e., its state enters each targeted set and stays inside no less than the desired time, under a resource-aware, time-efficient, and computation-and communication-constrained setting. We propose a new robot state estimation and navigation architecture, which integrates an event-triggered task-switching feedback controller for the robot and a two-time-scale distributed state estimator for each sensor. With the controller, the robot is able to accomplish a task by following a reference trajectory and switch to the next task when an event-triggered condition is fulfilled. With the estimator, each active sensor is able to estimate the robot state. We provide conditions to ensure that the state estimation error and the trajectory tracking deviation are upper bounded by two time-varying sequences, respectively. Furthermore, we find a sufficient condition for accomplishing a task and provide an upper bound of running time for the task. Numerical simulations of an indoor robot’s localization and navigation are provided to validate the proposed architecture

Autonomous unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) are crucial in critical target tracking and disaster management services. However, challenges arise due to limited channel capacity causing large transmission delays and constraints imposed by UAV batteries when running computationally intensive object detection and tracking algorithms. To address this, we propose in-telligent offloading computer vision tasks to a high-computational edge server at millimeter wave (mmWave) frequency. Transmission at mmWave needs large transmission power and is susceptible to blockages that necessitate considering the link quality in the offloading policy. Additionally, the timely processing of frames containing objects of interest is essential for context-based UAV operations to achieve a low frame drop rate. In this work, we present a delayed-reward reinforcement learning framework to determine the offloading policy of computer vision tasks in a delay-constrained environment. This approach considers the importance of the content within frames, which is unknown to the UAV. The objective is to jointly reduce UAV energy consumption and frame drop rates, leveraging statistical information of both the channel and the frame semantics. Through extensive simulations, we demonstrate by considering statistical information of the communication channel and frame semantics, we achieve approximately 45% energy savings compared to the UAV's energy consumption when processing all frames locally and maintaining the drop rate of delay-constrained frames below 5%.
